Epic release this statement: “Epic Records is a music first company that breaks new artists. That is our mission and our mandate.

Preferentially speaking, I have always been drawn to the dark and creepy side of both the arts and popular culture. With shelves cluttered with books by Chuck Palahniuk, walls covered with serial killer artwork and bookcases filled with research about sideshows and ten-in-ones, it comes as almost a shock that prior to this moment I had never let Fiona Apple seep into my world. Combining all of the things …

The video features vocalist Stefan Burnett rapping and many shots of drugs and money spinning inside a dryer, bringing a literal meaning to “laundering”.
