Lil Durk has dropped off another new music video.

Lil Durk is currently in the midst of a huge moment right now. Overall, he is one of the biggest artists in hip-hop. He has been able to come through with numerous fantastic albums over the years. However, in the eyes of some, Almost Healed is his best. With this new project, Durk is getting introspective. He speaks about his role in Chicago violence while also delivering bars about his love life. Recently, he went through some stuff with India Royale, and he touches on it on some of the tracks.

One of the songs he does this on is none other than "Sad Songs." Overall, you can probably tell the subject matter and tone of the effort by the title. With this track, Lil Durk decides to go a bit heavier on the autotune, all while detailing his shortcomings in relationships. Just like the track "Pelle Coat," this song is getting its very own music video. While it may not feature Alicia Keys, it still has some cinematic elements to it.

Firstly, the start of the video shows a man in a Gillie suit trying to get into a home. He is on a Ring doorbell cam and is pleading with India Royale to take Durk back. Of course, Royale has already done so, however, this all makes for a very funny music video. Although, if you aren't really tapped into the drama, then you may not actually care for this short skit. From there, Durk can be seen looking at photos and taking on the world alone whilst pouring his heart out.

Overall, it is another solid video that will certainly drum up some hype for the new album. It is on pace to sell about $150K first week, which is very solid for this day and age. Let us know your thoughts on the video, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world.
