Hip hop force HoodTrophy Bino is blurring the lines between viral internet moments and cinematic art with his new music video for “The Real.” The video, produced by Ordinary Visions, features a shocking full-circle moment: the fan who went viral for sucking Bino’s toes during a live performance has been officially cast as the lead in the music video where the act is recreated in high-definition.
What started as a “wild” snippet circulating on social media has now become a central theme in Bino’s brand of authenticity. “The Real” is a commitment to capturing the unfiltered, often chaotic energy of his rise in the industry. “People thought the show clip was crazy, so I had to bring that same energy to the official video,” says Bino. “We don’t do actors; we do what’s real.”
The video features Bino’s signature grit, luxury aesthetics, and the now-infamous fan interaction that has the internet divided. Is this the craziest thing a fan has done to become part of the story?
“The Real” is a raw, emotionally heavy street-rap track built on haunting piano loops and thunderous 808s. A hard-earned perspective of razor-thin tension between survival and success translates into one quotable hook: “The real don’t play with your life, it ain’t no coming back.” Over a moody mid-tempo trap backdrop, Bino moves between talk of warrants, snitches, and mortality, “we all gotta die… but mine gotta wait.”
This marks the second single from Hoodtrophy Bino’s upcoming full-length project Made A Way, which will feature collaborations with Lefty Gunplay, NoCap, Quando Rondo, Kai Bandz, Big Sad 1900, and more. Most recently, Bino was cast on this season of Deja Vu on Now That’s TV, appearing alongside cultural heavyweights Gucci Mane, Diamond The Body, Cuban Da Savage, and Mel. He is set to perform at this year’s Rolling Loud in Orlando on May 8 and is currently collaborating with Hit-Boy on a new album.
Breakout singles “I Want Her” featuring Kalan.FrFr and “Falling For You” further solidified his national presence, earning airplay across SiriusXM The Heat, Power 106, Power 105.1, and 96.1 The Beat, among others.
From gang life to global stages, Hoodtrophy Bino’s journey is one of transformation. After meeting Soulja Boy while incarcerated and later joining S.O.D.M.G., he turned adversity into ambition — touring nationwide and sharing his story through the acclaimed documentary Breaking the Generational Curse. His recent performances include touring with Soulja Boy, appearing alongside him at Rolling Loud Los Angeles, opening for Trippie Redd at the Toyota Arena, and for Chris Brown in Las Vegas. Bino has also been featured on major platforms including The Breakfast Club, On The Radar, HotNewHipHop, Lyrical Lemonade, and No Jumper.
