Florida artist blackbear has dropped off another visual for his 2019 studio album, Anonymous.

The eight-minute short film, titled THE ANONYMOUS SAGA, follows blackbear as he endures everything from relationship problems to substance abuse struggles to mental health issues. The video is soundtracked by Anonymous tracks "SWEAR TO GOD," "DEAD TO ME," and "HATE MY GUTS."

"This is an eight-minute video mimicking an existential crisis I felt like I was having at one point in my life," blackbear told Complex. "Everything bad that was happening seemed like it all tied back to one person."
