Watch Clipping. Debut “A Better Place” On James Corden
Now that Daveed Diggs is done collecting awards for his role in Hamilton, and on a break from lip-syncing Nas lyrics on The Get Down, he can go back to concentrating on his Clipping. project.
They dropped the Wriggle EP earlier this summer, but for their television debut on The Late Late Show last night they opted to perform a new track off their upcoming album Splendor & Misery entitled “A Better Place.” The song is what Clipping. does best: Give Diggs a futuristic, warped, minimal beat to go nuts on and get out of his way. Diggs delivers his herky-jerky, tongue-twisting verses as his band members provide the bell-ringing backdrop bathed in hanging fluorescent lighting. Watch.
Splendor & Misery is out 9/9 on Sub Pop.
