Yung Lean Shares “Yoshi City” Video; Sad Boys to Tour North America

The Swedish teenage rapper hangs in a cave in the clip for his Yung Gud-produced track.


The video for Yung Lean's "Yoshi City" feels like a glossy, big-budget Sad Boys production compared to the dial-up, Windows 95 quality of his other videos. Here, the Swedish teenager and hip-hop chain-rattler hangs around idly—in a gloomy cave with a robot dog, on the hood of a smart car—and deadpans Yung Lean-isms like I'm a lonely clown with my windows down over Yung Gud's percolating synth melody. His fingernails appear to be painted black and, like pretty much always, he keeps his cell phone close. The track is off Yung Lean's upcoming project, Unknown Memory, out later this year. This summer, the Sad Boys are coming stateside for their first North American tour; those dates are below.
