East London singer-songwriter Hak Baker stands as the rising voice of London's disaffected underclass. Wonderfully encasing this on breakout hit "7AM", Baker followed this up on the visuals for "Conundrum" earlier in the summer; and today's drop, "Like It Or Lump", continues in a similar vein. Lifted from Hak Baker's debut EP, Misfits—which is slated for release next month—it's another ponderous guitar-led ballad, one that speaks to the outsiders of the world.

Over email, Baker told Complex that "there's too many sheep, and not enough wolves. Live for the weekend and die for your cause." It's with a clear vision that Hak Baker puts his messages out into the world. Largely mirroring the perspective of songwriting, the visual for "Like It Or Lump It" is an autobiographical presentation of his inner circle—raw and up close—and you can watch it now, exclusively above. 

"Like It Or Lump It" will be available to buy/stream everywhere from October 27, followed by the EP on Nov. 15, and a regional tour early 2018.
