Robert Glasper has shared the video for the new single “Black Superhero” with Killer Mike, BJ the Chicago Kid, and Big K.R.I.T.
The black and white video features scenes of kids playing, cookouts, barbershops, and more. “Black Superhero” appears on Glasper’s forthcoming album Black Radio III—the third installment in Glasper’s Black Radio series. The forthcoming project both commemorates the 10-year anniversary of the Grammy-winning album and celebrates Black History Month.
Glasper is also set to perform the song on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Jan. 17.
Glasper reflected on project, sharing, “I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Black Radio than by releasing Black Radio III. To debut a live performance of ‘Black Superhero’ on The Tonight Show with some of my own heroes is really special to me. Hopefully, it inspires more to come.“
Black Radio III arrives Feb. 25 and also features appearances from Q-Tip, Yebba, H.E.R., Common, Musiq Soulchild, Ty Dolla Sign, and more. Watch the video for “Black Superhero” up top.
