Bryson Tiller recently wrapped up his Set If Off Tour stateside—along with a short trek out in Australia and New Zealand—but that doesn't mean the Louisville, Kentucky singer has stopped working. Tuesday Tiller comes through with the video for "Self-Made" off his sophomore release True to Self.
The visual finds Tiller in straight stunt mode and living his best life, including scenes of him riding a Jet Ski through the streets and ghost riding the whip. Get on his level.
"Self-Made" also highlights Tiller's sing-rap flow, something collaborator and veteran producer !llmind praised him for. "I think what makes him so great and what sets him apart is he can actually sing and rap," he told Complex. "He’s got the overall whole package. I’m highly impressed by his rapping. In my mind I consider him a rapper just as much as a singer."
True to Self, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart with 107,000 equivalent album units moved, came as a surprise release this past May. Tiller explained his reasoning behind the decision, and it was pretty straightforward: "I’ve been ready to get the music to the fans as soon as possible, so why not?"
Bryson Tiller is hitting a career stride right now, though it hasn't been all rosy:
these past few years i learned how easy it is to lose yourself.
and i learned the hard way but aye.... i'm back on my shit.
Now, Tiller is taking no prisoners.
