A$AP Rocky and his cohorts shoot down some literal pigs in the new video for “Babushka Boi.” The Harlem rapper debuted the song live on his Injured Generation Tour earlier this year.
Directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and inspired by Dick Tracy, the “Babushka Boi” video sees Rocky, A$AP Ferg, ScHoolboy Q, A$AP Nast and Kamil Abbas cast as Depression-era gangsters, wearing stylized facial prosthetics that exaggerate the cartoonish quality of the clip. But that’s nothing compared to the video’s villains – the cops – dressed up as anthropomorphic pigs.
