Its accompanying video features a cast of characters and a revolving car door of human behavior. “The experience of shooting the music video was quite fun. It’s sort of a day in the life of an Uber/Lyft driver, the concept came from video director Jen Rosenstein, I have worked before as a driver, so I knew exactly what I was getting into,” Ratinoff explains.

Once a budding Latin pop star with acting credits to his name, Ratinoff made waves with a pair of explosive singles which amassed over half a million YouTube views but feeling unfulfilled artistically he took a leap of faith and changed direction. On his new set of songs, he ignites a fresh sound independent of border and genre lines. Fusing his life experience with retro alt-rock sounds and energy.
