In his first official (legally licensed) cover, L.A.’s underground Hip-Hop-meets-everything dynamo Anacron takes The Virgins breakout hit “Rich Girls” to new heights; re-working the producing, playing, and performing of the hit tune in a typically atypical fashion that’s already been labeled “better than the original” by many. Wrangling every live instrument and programming tool within reach, Anacron has splashed a funky glaze onto the already rocking composition, making it an eclectic yet danceable extension of the original that rolls completely into it’s own genre-unspecific lane.
The official music video, filmed, directed, and edited by Anacron and styled by Eric Duran, stars Hollywood actress Minni Jo Mazzola of NBC series Parks and Recreation. The highly energetic clip is a simple, yet playful romp between Anacron and an all-too-familiar “rich girl” stereotype, in which he questions her over-the-top princess persona.
