Black Milk most recently dropped off his FEVER album at the tail end of February, at long last delivering on the follow up to 2014’s There’s A Hell Below. In conjunction with the release, he also delivered on the visuals for one of the project’s standout cuts, “Laugh Now Cry Later,” an artful exposition of the complexities of social media.

"It’s easily one of the darkest songs on the album and represents the shift from my original intentions to make a 'happy' album to letting the darker sounds flow out of me," he told XXL.

"On this one, I touch on a number of topics presented on social media, such as being woke/fake woke, cultural appropriation, police brutality, and men ignorantly giving their two cents on women’s issues,” he continued. “I also address the social media rollercoaster that takes us from outrage to comedy within seconds."
