While I spent Christmas begrudgingly making small talk with family
members I see once a year, Grimes was busy writing a song and making a
music video alongside her stepbrother, rapper Jay Worthy. “Christmas
Song II (Grinch)” serves as a sequel to a song they teamed up for that
was released as a bonus track for Visions. In a Tumblr post,
she emphasizes that “this is NOT a single from the upcoming album, not a
serious piece of art in any capacity and not an official grimes
release.” The video features Grimes in a retro Smashing Pumpkins T-shirt,
wielding an axe, wearing a gas mask, and laying on top of a piano at a
family gathering. The track — which was made in less than two hours —
has Jay Worthy rapping, Grimes riffing on “’Twas The Night Before
Christmas,” and a spoken word outro featuring some of Amy Pascal’s emails/freeform poetry from the Sony leak. Watch the video and read some words from Grimes below.
happy holidayzfirst off this song contains swearing so it might not be all ages
Anyway – i like to periodically release songs since my album is taking so long and i make a lot of songs that i wouldn’t put on an album but i nonetheless enjoy so thats what this is.
me and my step bro jay worthy make an annual christmas song with our siblings in order to avoid obligatory dinner. this is NOT a single from the upcoming album, not a serious piece of art in any capacity and not an official grimes release
also —made this song in prob less than 2 hours so please excuse my terrible production, + it is not mixed or mastered.
