Youtube[/caption] Rich in Biblical references, the video has a dark twist that shows Scott acting as a God who survives hellfire, baptising his followers in a swimming pool and setting his city ablaze while riding a demonic ram. The consequences of someone abusing their power could be the underlying message of both the song and its accompanying video. Ending with a recreation of Jesus’s birth in the manger, Jenner appears as a golden, angelic figure holding a new-born lamb. ‘Stop Trying to Be God’ has been directed by Dave Meyers, who has also helmed the video of Ariana Grande’s latest single ‘God Is A Woman’  and other artists like OutKast, Jay Z , Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar, Nas and N.E.R.D, writes Hypebeast . Scott’s last album was 2016’s B_irds In the Trap Sing McKnight_. In 2017, he had also formed a duo Huncho Jack with Migos’ Quavo and released an LP titled Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho, reports Rolling Stone . Watch ‘Stop Trying to Be God’  here .
