J. Cole

"Power Trip" (ft. Miguel) (video) (NSFW)

When J. Cole announced Born Sinner would arrive June 25, he teased the set with a lyric vid for the Miguel-featuring "Power Trip," noting that a proper video was on the way. Well, the time has come, and, yeesh, it's kind of grim.

While the flute-loop-assisted song has Cole riffing on how a woman he's had a crush on forever has him up all night, the video's storyline finds more than love on the rapper's mind. Though he looks uncomfortably pensive at the strip club as nubile women gyrate around him, the dude finally appears to get some peace of mind when he partakes in a good-old fashion shovel-in at the local forest.

You can peep the ditch-diggin' theatrics of it all down below.
