"Top Bandyta"
For writer-director duo Marcin Feltynowski and Adrian Idzikowski, their debut music video was never meant to be “just another rap visual.” It’s a full-blown cinematic experience — a high-octane collision of realism and digital fantasy, inspired by first-person shooters and the immersive chaos of GTA.
Their collaboration with Polish rapper and automotive YouTuber Budda turns the familiar tropes of hip-hop visuals upside down, questioning where performance ends and reality begins. The result: a wildly entertaining, self-aware satire on flex culture, authenticity, and the modern music video itself.
We catched up with Marcin and Adrian to talk about the making of their debut project — a film that literally blurs the line between a music video and a video game.
Is there a message that you don’t want the viewer to miss?
“The ending is crucial — it reveals that the entire video was actually a video game played by the artist.”
“Our inspiration came from first-person shooter games and the world of GTA. It’s a blend of cinematic realism and virtual chaos, reflecting how easily entertainment and reality can merge today.”
“At the same time, the video serves as a satire on the exaggerated “gangster” aesthetics and the constant flex culture dominating the rap scene — showing how far the image-driven world of hip-hop can drift from authenticity when everything becomes a performance.”
How many people worked on the video? Who played a key role in making it happen?
“Basically, we make videos as a duo — this was our debut project.”
“On set, we worked with a full team, including 17 actors, a professional pyrotechnics crew, and a military consultant/tactical advisor from special forces who helped actors with weapon handling and combat choreography.”
