Többek között Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Shawn Mendes, Halsey, Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran és Miley Cyrus is megjelenik benne, míg Leonardo DiCaprio a Titanic-on állva hívja fel a figyelmet a környezetvédelemre.
“Earth” is a song by American rapper Lil Dicky. It was released on April 19, 2019, three days prior to Earth Day. All proceeds from the song will be donated to different environmental charities after collaboration with the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.
On April 19, 2019, Dicky took to Twitter to announce the release of a new song the following week. It was also reported that Justin Bieber would return to music as a guest feature on a new Lil Dicky song. Bieber confirmed the collaboration on Twitter a few days later.
On April 17, Dicky released a preview of the video that was released the following day. Co-directed by Nigel Tierney of Emmy-winning studio RYOT (Behind the Fence VR), Federico Heller of 3Dar (Uncanny Valley) and Iconic Engine, the music video features the voices of 30 celebrities and singer-songwriters, including Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Shawn Mendes, Halsey, Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brendon Urie, Charlie Puth, Snoop Dogg, Miley Cyrus, among others.
Most celebrities represent a different type of animal or plant. Meghan Trainor, Joel Embiid, Tory Lanez, John Legend, Psy, Bad Bunny, Kris Wu and Backstreet Boys are not seen in the video. Kevin Hart is a substitute for Kanye West, and Leonardo DiCaprio’s character re-enacts a scene from the 1997 film Titanic. The video concludes with Dicky proclaiming that DiCaprio knows more about the Earth and “how we’re fucking it up” than anybody, and with DiCaprio saying that the track might be his “favorite song ever”.
