genre: sadboy EP by mgk & Trippie Redd is out now, buy/stream it HERE.
Following the release of their joint project genre : sadboy, two of Ohio’s biggest superstars, mgk and Trippie Redd, continue their new exhilarating era with the ‘beauty’ video. WATCH HERE.
Directed by Philip R. Lopez, mgk and Trippie Redd struggle to find light and positivity amid their dreary predicaments. With special effects bringing their jaded lyrics to life, the Midwest duo prove why they’re an untouchable force on the emo-laden track. “Cause the pain is present, I’m tryin’ to be vacant,” raps mgk. The ‘beauty’ visual comes after they unveiled their first video, ‘lost boys’.
Last month, the two heavyweights joined forces and unleashed a 17-minute documentary highlighting the 18-month recording process and their brotherly bond. From reciting cuts from Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter II album to playing practical jokes in the studio, mgk and Trippie give fans an in-depth view into arguably the most anticipated joint project in years. They also held an intimate listening session in LA, unveiling their album track-by-track. Trippie Redd and mgk aren’t strangers to collaborating, as they teamed up on previous songs including ‘Candy’, ‘all I know’ and ‘PILL BREAKER’.
With unmatched resumes consisting of chart-topping albums, GRAMMY nominations, and numerous Billboard Hot 100 hit records, mgk and Trippie Redd are destined for global domination as a singular force, all while adding to a genre fueled by gloom and dejection.
