The long-awaited first taste of the new Gorillaz album, which will be released later this year, has finally dropped in the form of a strictly anti-Trump video featuring Benjamin Clementine.

The track, titled 'Hallelujah Money', places Clementine in the elevator of Trump Tower, bellowing lyrics of building walls, world evil and becoming hungry for power just in time for 2017's Inauguration Day.

Disturbing images of Ku Klux Klan scenes and other troubling visuals flash behind the vocalist with intermittent shadows of different Gorillaz members.

See the video for 'Hallelujah Money' below.
