For those who wanted another alternative. I directed what I believed to be one of my favorite videos, rooted in the realities of our judicial system/law enforcement and actual problems that have occurred in/around my life… To be honest, no one really watched it so I decided to recycle ♻️ it and put it back out. This version has been sitting on my YouTube channel for months, first presented on screen at the museum of contemporary art back in August. C.O.P [OG VERSION] music out now.
Eric Andre (@ericfuckingandre ) has made his music video directorial debut for .idk.‘s (@idk ) “C.O.P.” After discussing the song’s supercharged lyrics, the two artists settled on an animated video inspired by the violent absurdism of’ Grand Theft Auto.’ .idk., who was first incarcerated at 17, shares that the music video shows “what the things I was doing [felt] like in my [teenage] mind.”
The FADER called Eric Andre and .idk. five days ahead of the music video release for a quick chat on the inspiration behind their new video and what it was like to bring it to life.
Watch the full music video for “C.O.P.” and read the full interview at link in bio.
