With the July 28 release date of his fifth studio album, the eponymous ‘Austin,’ looming, Post Malone (born Austin Post) is giving fans yet another taste of what they can expect from the 17-track effort before it hits digital shelves.

Having already served the singles ‘Chemical‘ and ‘Overdrive‘ to various successes, Post is now giving the LP’s critically acclaimed single ‘Mourning‘ the video treatment.

“Don’t wanna sober up / Try to keep it inside, but I just wanna pour it,” he wails on the hook of the Louis Bell & Watt-produced track. “Thought I was strong enough / Got a lot of sh-t to say, couldn’t fit in the chorus.”

Already a top 40 hit thanks to a previous peak of #36, will the official video be just what’s needed to push the tune to higher Hot 100 heights? See the Ramez Silyan-directed action inside and tell us your thoughts.

When it comes to Hip-Hop history stats, few can boast the industry “firsts” that Nicki Minaj can.

As if being the first woman of any genre to own 100 Hot 100 hits wasn’t enough to brag about, Minaj has more top 10 and top 20 hits than any other femcee ever – a record she extended as recently as this month.  In fact, Billboard even crowned the Harajuku Barbie as greatest female Hip-Hop act of all time – a feat that saw her leave the likes of royal forerunners MC Lyte, Missy Elliott, Queen Latifah, Lil Kim, and others in her rearview.

For the aforementioned reasons and others, Nicki was among the expected names set to line the guest list of Netflix’s highly anticipated ‘Ladies First: A Story of Women In Hip-Hop.’

But, when the special’s official trailer dropped Tuesday (July 25), the rapstress’ fans – affectionately called #Barbz – were none-too-pleased with her absence.
