Mick Jenkins - Truffles (Official Video)
Truffles is produced by returning collaborator Monte Booker whilst the nightmarish video is directed by Andre Muir, whose credits include videos for Vic Mensa, Sinead Harnett and Mahalia.
"Truffles attempts to address the idea that Blackness, no matter what, can always be weaponized", explains Jenkins. "From a young man actually committing a crime, to being somewhere we aren't 'supposed' to be, to even being an agent of change in our own and other communities. It's a statement that can be heard about Black people of all walks especially when doing something unconventional in white spaces. As complex as Fred Hampton, or as simple as moving into a nice neighbourhood, we can always be viewed as 'niggas making trouble'."
Truffles follows Jenkins' 2020 singles, Frontstreet Freestyle and Snakes featuring Kojey Radical, and his acclaimed EP, The Circus. Stay tuned for more from Mick Jenkins coming very soon.
