Shamir Takes Flight Inside A Glittery UFO For 'In For The Kill'

That's a a pretty sweet aircraft.

Our favorite weirdo pop star Shamir is back with another visually striking video, this time for the wonky-and-catchy-af dance jam "In For The Kill" off his stellar debut, Ratchet. In the vid, he's piloting a sweet UFO (there's a tape deck, a disco ball, and lots of glitter inside, NBD) while wreaking havoc on citizens below.

"In For The Kill," which premiered over at Rookie, was inspired by the so-called "balloon boy hoax" of 2009 (in which a couple claimed their six-year-old son was floating inside a homemade air balloon). In a press release about the video, Shamir claimed the song was about "making sacrifices to do things that make you happy. For me, that’s making and playing music."
