With their new album, ROME set for a November 3 release on Backwoodz—we present NYC power house Armand Hammer, the super duo comprised of billy woods & ELUCID, who just unveiled their video for “It Was Written” directed by william woods featuring animation by m. Musgrove & musical production by August Fanon.
