Macklemore is a master of disguise in "Corner Store."

Macklemore has been known to deliver music videos with a surreal sense of off-kilter humor, and his latest takes the trend to a new level. In "Corner Store," a jazzy cut off Gemini, the Seattle rapper finds himself donning some geriatric makeup and looking like Walder Frey outta Game Of Thrones. Conceptually, the clip is rather straightforward - featured guests Dave B and Travis Thompson attempt to cop some beer while underage. Despite an early-night fail, the duo ultimately enlist a willing volunteer (also played by Macklemore) to make the purchase for them. What follows is a debauchery-fueled adventure, which climaxes in a final, gender-bending costume change. 

The clip was directed by Johnny LeFlare, and features the longest list of credits I've ever seen in a Youtube video description. Check out the video now, and support Macklemore's Gemini if you're feeling this.
