Benny Blanco and Juice WRLD Drop Cameo-Stacked “Graduation” Video
Written by SOURCE on September 1, 2019
Benny Blanco and Juice WRLD have dropped the video for “Graduation,” their first collaborative single since 2018’s “Roses” featuring Brendon Urie.
Directed by Jake Schreier, the visual takes cues from classic teen films as it provides a glimpse into the future lives of fictional students. Cameos include Hailee Steinfeld, Noah Cyrus, Justice Smith, Lil Ducky, Olivia Munn, Dove Cameron, and David Dobrik, all of whom portray high school archetypes. You have the jock, the party girl, the nerd, and even the disgruntled lunch lady.
Blanco takes on the role of math teacher named Mr. Upchuck, while Juice plays “Gary”—a video game-obsessed teen who would go on to find fantastic GameStop regional manager success.
You can check out the “Graduation” video above. The track samples Vitamin C’s 20-year-old hit single of the same name.
“Graduation” arrives following Juice’s joint tracks with Lil Tecca (“Ransom” remix) and Ellie Goulding (“Hate Me”). The artist also has a number of shows lined within the next few months, including an appearance at Tyler, the Creator’s annual Camp Flog Gnaw.
