Premiere: SAINt JHN Links Up With Lil Baby in “Trap” Video
Written by SOURCE on June 25, 2019
Brooklyn’s own SAINt JHN has built on the success of his 2018 project Collection One through touring and sprinkling new music here and there, with his latest release, “Trap” featuring Lil Baby, being one of his biggest.
The accompanying video finds the two artists scheming late at night, with a biker gang in full effect. It’s a fitting visual to match F a l l e n’s dark production, as Lil Baby serves up his own experiences in the streets of Atlanta. (“Runnin’ down on ’em, don’t trip/Make sure your whole clip fit/Know it was hard livin’, tryna survive this bullshit”).

Earlier this year, it was announced that Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder, Kareem “Biggs” Burke, had started up his own management company called Circle of Success and brought SAINt JHN on as his first signee.
Biggs recalled the first time he heard the artist. “The night [Roc Nation co-founder Tyran Smith], played a preview of SAINt JHN’s new abum, I drove home listening to Collection One and had an immediate sonic connection to his music.” He added, “[SAINt JHN] will be the next biggest artist and brand in the world.”
