Trippin’: ScHoolboy Q ‘Collard Greens’ Video Featuring Kendrick Lamar

Posted byBy Leo | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

West coast rapper ScHoolboy Q released a new video for his song, “Collard Greens” featuring Kendrick Lamar. “Collard Greens,” which is a metaphor for smoking marijuana, is the first single from ScHoolboy’s upcoming album. The video is a great representation of that metaphor, as the visuals are filtered using a kaleidoscope effect. According to spin.com:

“Collard Greens,” the first single L.A. rapper ScHoolboy Q’s upcoming album, is a song about (surprise!) smoking weed. So the video is exactly as trippy as you would expect, with Q’s disembodied head forming a kaleidescope pattern in pitched-up contrast, alongside shots of him and collaborator Kendrick Lamar partying with a bunch of people. Also Macklemore. Macklemore (who collaborated with ScHoolboy on “White Walls”) is just in the corner of the party looking goofy as hell.”

ScHoolboy looks to follow the success of his fellow west coast brethren Kendrick Lamar.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
