Killer Mike’s ‘Nobody Knows’ Video Is An Inspiring Inside Look At His Endless Hustle

Killer Mike does not believe in taking a day off. Well, that’s what the official video for his latest single, “Nobody Knows,” portrays.

Between the Grammy winner’s thriving music career and public outreach efforts, Mike is making the most of his time here on Earth. With the help of director Andrew Thomas Clifton, the Songs For Sinners & Saints standout is brought to life.

In the grayscale visual, Mike lets fans into his endless daily hustle. From tour life to advocacy work, family time and heartfelt interactions with fans, Mike has a lot to juggle. But, he wouldn’t have it any other way.

“I don’t be knowin’ if I’m comin’, or I’m goin’ / I’m on a path and I don’t know where I’m goin’ / Talkin’ to God, Mr. Mighty, all knowin’ / I’ma say it even though I know you know it / I got some people that I probably should avoid / I did some things that keep me, I’m paranoid / I’m goin’ blank, I’m just tryna fill a void / My junkie auntie do the same with opioids,” he raps.

Nobody knows just how much Mike has overcome a lot to obtain this level of success. However, with each release, listeners are given a microdose of his trials and tribulations.

Following the release of “a href=”https://uproxx.com/music/killer-mike-humble-me-2024-grammys-arrest-video/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>Humble Me” earlier this month, Killer Mike has said in a statement, “I had a year to live with Michael, and I realized I had more I wanted to do with this sound before moving on.”

Michael is his previous album, and the statement is regarding a new project: Today (July 29), Mike announced Songs For Sinners & Saints, a fresh album that we won’t have to wait long for, as it’s set to drop this week, on August 2. The project is credited to Michael & The Mighty Midnight Revival.

Mike says in a statement, “For me, this is a testimonial. When I was growing up an important part of church service was people having the opportunity to stand up and give public testimony on their trials, tribulations, and triumphs. After the celebratory atmosphere that followed Michael, I was reminded that tribulations never cease, but God is always with me and this is a testimonial of my tumultuous times, my trials, and my continued triumph in spite of doubt, outright hate, and fear. I am here to speak to and with my fellow sinners and Saints.”
