Danny Brown’s critically acclaimed release XXX is an exuberant album, but it has some dark moments. Even when Brown was able to put a bizarre twist on situations like stealing copper from elementary schools and getting utterly wasted via PBR, the bleak reality of Detroit always loomed in the background. That dim background doesn’t disappear in this video. The cartoonish setup is entertaining, but at the end, it’s still pretty melancholy. It’s up for debate whether the animators at Pitchfork aimed to maintain that melancholy aura, but it’s there nonetheless.
