Grimes (a.k.a. Claire Boucher) continues to plug away at her follow-up to 2012's Visions, and while we're yet to hear any news about the album, the performer has shared a fun new video.

"Christmas Song II (Grinch)" is a homemade song and video she created with her stepbrother Jay Worthy. Built on a Vince Guaraldi Charlie Brown sample, it's a hyped-up, lo-fi rap song with plenty of great one-liners.

Grimes shared the song and video with the following statement: 

happy holidayz

first off this song contains swearing so it might not be all ages
Anyway - i like to periodically release songs since my album is taking so long and i make a lot of songs that i wouldn't put on an album but i nonetheless enjoy so thats what this is.
me and my step bro jay worthy make an annual christmas song with our siblings in order to avoid obligatory dinner. this is NOT a single from the upcoming album, not a serious piece of art in any capacity and not an official grimes release
also —made this song in prob less than 2 hours so please excuse my terrible production, + it is not mixed or mastered.
