Damn, this is heavy.
Since garnering buzz for his breakout performance during the BET Hip-Hop Awards cypher, rap newcomer Joyner Lucas has been making a lot of noise with his infectious flow and charismatic rhymes.
Earlier this week, Joyner stopped by Power 105’s The Breakfast Club to discuss his overnight success in hip-hop, as well as plans to take over the rap game. Following the release of his “Champagne For Everybody” music video, Joyner co-directs a controversial and polarizing new video for his latest single, “Happy Birthday.”
The four-minute video depicts a young father (played by Joyner) yelling at his infant son about his unwanted existence. As time begins to pass and the child becomes a toddler, Joyner discovers he isn’t his biological son. Subsequently, Joyner kicks out the boy and his girlfriend to fend for themselves.
But just as the video reaches a peak, Joyner switches the script.
Make sure you watch the controversial visual to the very end.
