After dropping off her contrasting albums Everything Sucks and Everything is Beautiful earlier this year, Princess Nokia unveils the visuals for her latest single “Gross.” Channeling a frightening yet glamorous circus performer, the New York native is depicted as a knife swallower to a rotating target on the wheel of death to a halo-donning saint that conjures up fire. The video’s motif aligns perfectly with the frenzied theme of the Everything Sucks album which was created in just one week and includes tracks with biting lyrics like “Harley Quinn” and “Welcome to the Circus.”

Directed by Gianluigi Carella, watch the video above and listen to “Gross” across all major streaming platforms now.
