On Oct. 31, Big Sean dropped a major record with “Bounce Back.” Today (Dec. 12), the Detroit native releases the accompanying music video.

You can check out the trippy, Kid Studio-directed clip above via YouTube. At the beginning of the nearly four-minute video, Sean Don is chillin’ on a rooftop rocking a pink jacket, trademark sunglasses and multiple chains. Then, the clip cuts to Sean in the middle of a desert. The camera captures the incredibly scenery, which features an ocean at the top of the screen where the sky should be.

The track is produced by Hitmaka, Smash David, Metro Boomin and Amaire Johnson. “Don’t owe nobody, owe nobody/Always on the fucking job, I got no hobbies,” Big Sean raps. “Got the city fucking with me cause I’m homegrown/Vibing out more than my phone though/Leave me ‘lone, me on my own though/Look, I cut that bitch off like an edit/My daddy a G, it’s genetics/I heard your new shit, it’s pathetic.”

In case you missed it, you can also peep the Dark Sky Paradise rapper’s other new song, “No More Interviews.” The record is notable because Sean raps about his relationships with Kid Cudi and Kanye West, spitting, “Cudi and ‘Ye, what happened to our family ways though/When I put you on that song with Nas, you had told me that you was forever grateful/And that we brothers, so it hurt to hit the Internet to find out that me and you don’t fuck with each other over a miscommunication/That probably could be fixed with a five minute conversation.”

Big Sean is gearing up for his new, still-untitled album, which is slated to drop in 2017. For now, you can cop “Bounce Back” via iTunes.
