DDG has returned with a spacey new visual for his Gunna-assisted single “Elon Musk.” The video, directed by StripMall, follows the Pontiac-bred lyricist as he plays the role of an astronaut and straps into a rocket ship, blunt in hand, and launches into space. Elsewhere in the video, Gunna sits comfortably in the back of a gliding Tesla as both rappers spit clever bars about their weed consumption.
The thematics of DDG’s new “Elon Musk” music video make sense considering he’s been saying for weeks he will be the first rapper to head into space. While it’s unclear when and how he plans to make that trek, the galactic “Elon Musk” music video reaffirms his commitment to making it happen.
