History isn’t something Dave studies from a distance, he creates it. In the official video for the title track The Boy Who Played The Harp, Dave places himself within pivotal moments in history. As a meditation on legacy, director Edem Wornoo brings to life the visually interrogating line: what would I do in the next generation? Do we inherit power, reshape it, or question it? This chapter expands outward, continues Dave’s trajectory as one of Britain’s most incisive voices.

Where earlier records like PSYCHODRAMA and We’re All Alone In This Together dissected identity and isolation, this song anchors his third studio album, The Boy Who Played The Harp. The album debuted at No. 1 in the UK, making Dave the first British rap act to open three consecutive albums at the top of the charts. Singles like Raindance featuring Tems, his fourth UK No. 1, and Chapter 16 with Kano helped build the momentum, but the title track carries the thesis. Watch "The Boy Who Played The Harp" now. It’s not just a title, it’s a question about what kind of future gets composed next.
