Taken from Kano's forthcoming album, Method to the Maadness, Upside sees the rapper teaming up with Why Why Peaches vocalist Michelle Breeze. "One of the key lyrics that inspired the video is: 'If I lose my head, I lose my focus, but I'll lose my dough before I lose my soul.'" explains Kano. The video, directed by Henry Schofield and shot in Canning Town, east London, sees the rapper playing a boxer cornered by two fixers who want him to throw a fight. Method to the Maadness is out on 30 August and features contributions from Boys Noize, Hot Chip, Diplo, and Damon Albarn.
