An industrial hip-hop / punk-rap track (stylized “BLKKK SKKKN HEAD”), “Black Skinhead” premiered on Saturday Night Live before becoming the first Yeezus single. Driven by pounding, live-and-programmed drums co-produced with Daft Punk, it addresses racial tension and the unstable persona at the album’s core. The Nick Knight–directed CGI video arrived in July 2013; the single reached charts across the U.S. and Europe and earned widespread year-end acclaim.
