“Panda” is here. Desiigner gets fast and furious in the long-awaited music video for his platinum single.
While rapping about how the white BMW X6 looks like a panda and how the black BMW X6 looks like a Phantom, the G.O.O.D. Music MC whips through the streets of NYC at high speeds in the cinematic visual, helmed by Kanye West and Paul Geusebroek. Yeezus also makes a cameo behind the wheel of a car with his 18-year-old protégé riding shotgun.
“Panda” earned Desiigner his first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. It spent two weeks on top before being dethroned by Drake’s “One Dance” this week.
In April, Desiigner said that his “Panda” comparisons are just a reflection of his mind. “The way my mind works is crazy, man,” he said. “I don’t say crazy like in a crazy psycho way, I mean crazy in like a great artist way. I have my own way of seeing things and I look at things totally different. So when I was just looking at the X6 I was just saying that’s a panda.”
The “Panda” video follows Desiigner’s Boyd-assisted single “Moon People,” which also dropped this week.
