Clipse has continued the rollout for their anticipated Let God Sort Em Out album with a brand new music video. On Tuesday (June 17), the duo unleashed 'So Be It,' a stinging track accompanied by a lavish music video. Directed by Hannan Hussain, the black-and-white visual stuns with luxury vehicles, jewelry, and more, as the brothers welcome smoke from all corners.
In the third verse, Pusha T takes direct shots at Travis Scott.
'You cried in front of me, you died in front of me/Calabasas took your b*tch and your pride in front of me/Heard Utopia had moved right up the street/And her lip gloss was poppin', she ain't need you to eat/The 'net gon' call it the way that they see it/But I got the video, I can share and A.E. it/They wouldn't believe it, but I can't unsee it/Lucky I ain't TMZ it, so be it, so be it.'
In a conversation with GQ, the Virginia-bred lyricist explained his disdain for the Houston rager and linked it back to his 'Meltdown' collaboration with Drake. In the song, the Canadian chart-topper exclaimed he'd 'melt down the chains that I bought from your boss, give a f**k about all of that heritage sh*t,' referencing Neptunes-era jewlery Drake purchased at auction.
'The true context of that is we were in Paris, literally working, and he was calling to play P his new album. He came to [Pharrell's] studio [at Louis Vuitton HQ, where Clipse recorded most of Let God Sort Em Out]. He interrupted a session,' Pusha detailed. 'He sees me and Malice] there. He's like, 'Oh, man, everybody's here,' he's smiling, laughing, jumping around, doing his f**king monkey dance. We weren't into the music, but he wanted to play it, wanted to film [us and Pharrell listening to it]. And then a week later you hear 'Meltdown,' which he didn't play. He played the song, but not [Drake's verse].'
He continued, 'So, that's where my issue comes in—like, dawg, don't even come over here with that, because at the end of the day, I don't play how y'all play. To me, that really was just like…he's a wh*re. He's a wh*re,' as he described Scott's lack of 'loyalty' to Kanye West.
'So Be It' is the second single from the first album recorded by the brothers in 16 years. It was preceded by the track 'Ace Trumpets' with both being produced by Pharrell Williams. As a frequent collaborator with the group, the 52-year-old produced the entire album.
Let God Sort Em Out is officially due on July 11, 2025, from Roc Nation. Along with the album, Clipse is set to embark on a national tour.
