Queer L.A.-based rapper Big Dipper knows a lot of really big guys. They range professionally from photographers, and HIV educators to ad sales directors and comic book artist, and he got them all in for the video of his new single ” Lookin’ which is a track off his debut LP ‘Late Bloomer’ that is being released later this summer.
Dipper said of the video: “I wanted to take all the stereotypical setups from stupid college frat movies and flip the over-sexualization of women in bikinis at car washes. I wanted to feature thick, fat guys who like to show off and dance….the type of bodies that get overlooked in typical media representation. I also really wanted to make a dance video that shows big and fat guys really moving and hitting tight choreography. It was important for me to cast a wide range of bodies and types of guys to feature in the visual. It was super exciting to me that the majority of the people in the video don’t directly work in music or nightlife….but they are all outgoing and charismatic.”
