Jhené Aiko Is Just "Tryna Smoke" in New Music Video
Big Sean makes a special appearance in the visual.
Jhené Aiko is celebrating 4/20 with an accompanying music video for her Chilombo cut “Tryna Smoke.”
The groovy and equally trippy visual sees the songstress, her friends and Big Sean in ’70s-themed outfits as they enjoy the celebrated day. Aiko dropped the music video just in time for 4/20 as she sings about her desire to drop all her problems in life: “If I could fly / I would probably never come down / With all of the bullsh*t confusion on the ground / I wish that I was high,” and ends it with a homage to the circle sequence popularized by That 70’s Show.
Chilombo dropped just a little over a year ago in March 2020 and debuted at No. 2 — Aiko’s highest-charting record so far — and went on to receive three GRAMMY nominations, namely Album of the Year, Best Progressive R&B Album and Best R&B Performance for “Lightning & Thunder” with John Legend.
