West Coast experimental hip-hop trio clipping. dropped a massive tune yesterday that will have you out of your seat straight away. Titled ‘Run It’, the track is lifted from their “long-in-the-works Hip-Hop and Cyberpunk” upcoming album and marks their first new music since their 2020 widely acclaimed and insanely good Visions of Bodies Being Burned. Rapper Daveed Diggs and producers William Hutson and Jonathan Snipes, who make up the trio, are offering ‘Run It’ with a befittingly fast-paced video filled with quick cuts of cities in the US, Germany, South Korea, Thailand, India, and the Czech Republic, where it was filmed. Lawrence Klein directs. Watch it below.

Oh hell yes! clipping. have released a blistering banger. Back in 2020, the West Coast experimental hip hop trio of Daveed Diggs, William Hutson and Jonathan Snipes had covered J-Kwon’s 2004 hit ‘Tipsy’, “one of the greatest party rap songs of all time,” as clipping. puts it. “We could never make a beat as hard as the original, so we took our version in another direction — something like if Skinny Puppy had somehow remixed it in the late 1980s.” Now their take has been officially released on a 7″ split single through Sub Pop Records. It also features Cooling Prongs’s cover of Ice-T’s ‘Midnight’ on the B side.

Listen to ‘Tipsy’ below, you’ll be playing it again the second it ends.
