The singles for YG’s upcoming album MY LIFE 4HUNNID so far have found the Los Angeles rapper tapping into the party-starting energy that made him famous (“Swag,” “Equinox”) without ignoring the rising movement for Black Lives (“FTP”). His new song is similarly celebratory and brooding, bouncing with the momentum of a release from prison yet streaked with trauma and regret. Check out the energetic music video above.
YG called the record “my truth” in an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, and said it encapsulates MY LIFE 4HUNNID. “When I wake up every day and I go to sleep every day, tripping out, I got these types of problems that I’m dealing with, with police and with just everything, you feel me? The court system and all that type of sh-t. And so I was like, this record represents the album to me.”
