Hit-Boy & Spank Nitti James feat. Terrace Martin – Scale Back [Video]
Hit-Boy and Spank Nitti James keep feeding the “Yeast Talkin’” wave with the visual for “Scale Back”, the album’s closer and one of its most laid-back, reflective joints.
The track caps off the duo’s new 18-song collab project, a late-night West Coast ride that dropped via Surf Club Inc. at the end of November.
“Scale Back” slows the tempo without softening the flex. Hit-Boy builds a warm, woozy backdrop that leans more soulful than rowdy, leaving space for Spank Nitti to talk discipline, money flow and trimming the circle down to the people who really matter. Terrace Martin slides in as the secret weapon, adding that extra layer of musicality and cool that ties the whole record back to L.A.’s live-instrument tradition.
Shot in Los Angeles and released through Hit-Boy’s own channel, the “Scale Back” video matches the song’s mood perfectly. Instead of going for big-budget chaos, the clip feels intimate and cinematic – low light, clean framing, small details and performance shots that let you just sit with the track. It plays like the end credits to the full “Yeast Talkin’” story: after all the wild records and high-energy moments, this is the calm after the storm, counting blessings and taking stock.
Hit play on “Scale Back” below, then run “Yeast Talkin’” from front to back – this closer hits even harder when you hear the entire album build up to it.
