​Sturgill Simpson Makes Love Trump Hate in "All Around You" Video

BY Sarah MurphyPublished Feb 16, 2017

Sturgill Simpson just took home the title of Best Country Album at the Grammys for last year's A Sailor's Guide to Earth, and he seems to be using the boost in name recognition to make a political statement.
 
In his new video for "All Around You," the non-conformist country dude presents the story of a young cape-sporting kid championing the fight against a suit and red tie-wearing political monster. The leader in question even sports some massive gold-tinted boxing gloves, though it's not explicitly clear just how small the hands they're hiding underneath are.
 
Ultimately, the youngster with a literal heart of gold guides the masses right through a wall, making for a touching (if not at all subtle) metaphor. Watch love trump hate in the video for "All Around You" below.
