Watch Kendrick Lamar’s “Count Me Out” Video Starring Helen Mirren as His Therapist

Kendrick Lamar has shared his new visual for "Count Me Out" from 'Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers,' with cameos from Helen Mirren and Jack Dorsey.

Kendrick Lamar has shared the video for “Count Me Out.”

The visual for the Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers album cut features Oscar-winner Helen Mirren as the rapper’s therapist, with the two in session. She asks him about an interaction he had with a woman in a parking lot, where the woman accused Lamar of stealing her parking spot. Kendrick makes a joke and the two have a laugh about the incident before the therapist digs deeper, asking him why he texted her “I feel like I’m fallen” at 2 a.m.

The Dave Free and Lamar-directed “Count Me Out” video then cuts to different scenes as he attempts to answer her question. Kendrick is seen in various settings: the desert, among a herd of goats, in the car, having drinks with friends—one of whom is Jack Dorsey—and more.

Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers arrived in May and boasted features from Sampha, Blxst, Summer Walker, Baby Keem, Kodak Black, and more. It also spawned the short film “We Cry Together,” which is a potential Oscar contender.
