Presented without comment: Juicy J drops a verse on Passion Pit’s “Constant Conversations”.
"I don’t think people talk about mental illness a lot, but they need to know it’s OK to talk about how they are feeling. People are afraid of telling the truth because they think it’s going to hurt everyone around them. I’ve kept so much inside that I’ve literally lost it. I wish more people would get help when they feel like they need it— not just to look to medicine, but to the support of others."
— Passion Pit’s Michael Angelakos.
Watch the new video for Passion Pit’s Gossamer highlight “Constant Conversations” directed by Dori Oskowitz and featuring legendary director Peter Bogdanovich (The Last Picture Show), actress Analeigh Tipton (Damsels in Distress), actress Taryn Manning (8 Mile), and actor Roger Guenveur Smith (Do the Right Thing). And a snake.
