The music video for “All The Stars,” the lead single off Black Panther: The Album, is out today. Directed by Dave Meyers & the little homies, the video stars Kendrick Lamar and his Top Dawg Entertainment label-mate SZA, Paste’s best new artist of 2017.
The visually stunning video is immersed in surrealism, with the opening scene showing Lamar sailing over a sea of waving human hands. SZA sings and dances in a starlit universe while Lamar raps his lyrics amid scenes of bombs exploding over shack-ridden villages, walking through a desolate forest with a gang of panthers by his side. In the end, Lamar and SZA present themselves in front of giant god-like women and the video closes with a glowing silhouette of the African continent revealed in SZA’s hair.
“All The Stars” will be featured on Black Panther: The Album, available on all digital platforms this Friday, Feb. 9, and in stores on Feb. 16, the same day that Black Panther the movie opens in theaters.
