Watch Joyner Lucas Pay Homage to Mac Miller in "Seventeen" Video, Track Samples “Donald Trump”

The 35-year-old filmed the video at his new yogurt shop, Oh Wow Frozen Yogurt and Smoothies.

Joyner Lucas returned to his old Massachusetts stomping grounds in the official music video for his new single titled "Seventeen." Check it out below.

On Friday, Lucas dropped the video that has him turning up in a neighborhood with locals in Northborough, Massachusetts. Other scenes include the rapper filming the video on location at his new frozen yogurt shop, Oh Wow Frozen Yogurt and Smoothies, were people purchased various treats.

The song itself samples the late Mac Miller's 2011 hit "Donald Trump" and is also Lucas' way of paying homage to his peer.

"The first time I ever heard Mac Miller was the Donald Trump record," Joyner said in a statement. "Soon as I heard the sample and what he did to it, I immediately became a fan. That beat was one of my favorite samples ever. Me being able to use that sample and flip it my own way and pay homage to Mac Miller at the same time is dope."

He continued, "I wish he was around to hear it. Reflecting back to when I was seventeen, it's crazy to see that I'm making my childhood dreams come true. I'm just trying to inspire others through my music the same way Mac did."

"Seventeen" is the latest single that Lucas released on his highly-anticipated new album. The others include "Broski," "Cut U Off (feat. YoungBoy Never Broke Again)," "What's That?," and "Devil's Work Part 2."
