With his new album Mr. Morales & the Big Steppers stepping toward the Billboard 200 with the anticipated biggest first-week sales of the year (as we reported here), Kendrick Lamar is giving music lovers even more reasons to cop the May 13-released set as he unleashes yet another taste of music that lines its tracklist.

Housed cut ‘N95’ serves as the latest of ‘Steppers’ songs to be given the visual treatment.

Directed by Dave Free, the cinematic clip sees Lamar floating over the ocean, playing piano in a performance hall, and later being chased through the streets all while spitting clever references to the global health crisis.

“Hello new world, all the boys and girls, I got some true stories to tell / You’re back outside, but they still lied,” he said in the eye-opening tune.
