New York hip-hop veteran Homeboy Sandman has released a striking new music video for “Moon Lullaby”, a standout track from his acclaimed collaborative album, Soli Deo Gloria, produced by UK beatmaker Sonnyjim.
The song, anchored by its hypnotic refrain, “Living in the city gets wild,” explores the beauty and chaos of urban life. The video brings those themes to life, showcasing the unique energy of New York City through surreal moments that could only happen in the five boroughs.

A Visual Snapshot of NYC’s Energy
Filmed in the heart of the city, the “Moon Lullaby” video captures Sandman performing against the backdrop of NYC’s constant motion. In one striking scene, he’s seen standing on top of a transit sign above a subway entrance, rapping over the flow of commuters. In another, he balances on scaffolding rails while the city bustles below, perfectly embodying the balance between chaos and inspiration that defines New York.
Reflecting on the shoot, Homeboy Sandman shared:
“New York City. Only city in the world where you can cover up a transit display with a makeshift green screen, climb on top of it, rap at the top of your lungs for an hour in the middle of crowded traffic, while being filmed, and people barely raise an eyebrow. Living in the city is paradise. Living in the city is wild.”
A Highlight From Soli Deo Gloria
The release of the “Moon Lullaby” video comes on the heels of Soli Deo Gloria’s success. The project has earned praise from major outlets like NPR, Pitchfork, HotNewHipHop, VIBE Magazine, OkayPlayer, and Stereogum for its sharp lyricism and seamless blend of Sandman’s thought-provoking storytelling with Sonnyjim’s lush, jazz-infused production.
With this latest visual, Homeboy Sandman pays homage to the city that shaped his artistry, proving that even in the middle of everyday chaos, creativity and inspiration can flourish.
