Young Fathers’ new video for ‘Toy’ is a bit creepy tbh

It's full of mini-dictators.
Young Fathers have released a new clip for their track ’Toy’, which sees horrible little children running the world.



“I found this comical image of Kim Jong Un in a crib playing with his toys and, when I heard ‘Toy’ for the first time, that image came to mind immediately,” says director Salomon Ligthelm.



“The tone of the track is so visceral and abrasive, which I think marries the political subject matter perfectly. I honestly just really like the idea of seeing dictators behaving like spoilt little children – pissed with the world, because things aren’t going their way. Looking at the political climate of our time, I’d say truth is certainly stranger than fiction.”



Watch ‘Toy’ below.
