We got another glimpse of Harvard Dropout from Lil Pump on Thursday, courtesy of the frenetic, flashy, indulgent whirlwind of a video for "Racks On Racks."
The Miami MC is the ringmaster, choppering in to an airplane graveyard filled with women and flamethrowers and monster trucks, because Lil Pump. As the colored smoke and money flies, an approaching spaceship is shot down by one of his alluring associates before the crew leaves the desert with a blaze behind them. It's a non-stop, pulse-busting 150 seconds of dizzying glory, and the prefect preview for Pump's upcoming album.
After several viewings, a few questions remain. Why are they assembled in the desert? Is this a training exercise of some sort or are they there specifically for this incoming alien invasion that they seem to foil? Do the guns shoot both flames and money? That seems like a dangerous dual purpose and potentially a costly one. And wait, is there a guy in a shark suit there? Everything is spinning.

"Racks On Racks" features another catchy chorus over a swirling beat with a trunk-rattling undercurrent, the kind that Lil Pump has specialized in since his debut. The song turns up the intensity from "Butterfly Doors" released earlier this month, and will be featured on Harvard Dropout when it released on February 22nd.
Lil Pump will also be a part of Coachella in April.
