Lil Dicky enlisted a wide range of A-list celebrities for his animated video ‘Earth,’ which aims to celebrate our home just time for Earth Day (April 22).
Rappers Snoop Dogg, Lil Yachty, Tory Lanez and Wiz Khalifa as well as John Legend, Kevin Hart, Lil Jon, Miguel and Bad Bunny voice different wild animals in the seven-minute visual, which dropped on Friday (April 19). Other voices include Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and Leonardo DiCaprio, among several others.
The track was originally supposed to be about animals, however Lil Dicky realized he wanted to use the track to raise awareness about climate change and environmentalism.
“As I started thinking about my song, I thought, ‘It’s probably a good thing that all the profits that come from this song go to charities involved in saving the environment,'” he explained to Rolling Stone. “It was always in my head that this was going to be something that helped raise money for environmental issues, but I didn’t really know the facts. I looked into it and was blown away.”
Dicky says that he was working on the song for about two-and-a-half years before it was released. It’s quintessential Lil Dicky, but it’s also informative.
