Mykki Blanco

"Join My Militia (Nas Gave Me a Perm)" (video)

The week is still young, but gender-bending hip-hop artiste Mykki Blanco's new vid for "Join My Militia (Nas Gave Me a Perm)" could easily be the weirdest -- and alternately most thrilling and terrifying -- clip you'll come across for the next couple of days.

Down below, you can watch the darkly lit video, which finds the Blanco (aka Michael D. Quattlebaum) stumbling across an outdoorsy scene washing back a bottle of booze wearing nothing but a bra, panties and boots.

Blanco's flow, atop a post-modern electro clank beat, runs from smooth musings to out-of-control auto-tune warbles at the drop of a dime, almost cocking our heads in confusion as much as shots of the rapper falling out of a tree or chilling out face down in the nude with an octopus draped over his buns. And then the sea creature gets to sit on top of the spitter's dome -- before Blanco crams it in his mouth.

It's unsettling, but we'll have another, please.

You can join Blanco's militia tomorrow (May 15) when he drops the Mykki Blanco & the Mutant Angels mixtape through UNO NYC.
