The video features a spoken word intro from the show\u2019s star Cillian Murphy and was directed by series writer\/director Anthony Byrne.<\/p>\n<p>The video is set in a glowing alleyway at night, with Murphy reciting a piece called \u201cA Place Above\u201d as the camera moves in on Beth. She performs the hard-hitting song as she makes her way down the alley, spitting drinks in people\u2019s faces and making out with drag queens along the way. The video has a slick, but aggressive aesthetic that matches the song\u2019s fierce vibe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2018I\u2019m The Man\u2019 is an attempted study on humankind, what we define as evil and the inner conflict of morality,\u201d Beth said in a statement when she dropped the song. \u201cBecause it is much easier to label the people who are clearly tormented by obsessions as monsters than to discern the universal human background that is visible behind them. However, this song has not even a remote connection with a sociological study, collective psychology, or present politics. It is a poetic work first and foremost. Its aim is to make you feel, not think.\u201d<\/p>\n<div readability=\"17.82380952381\">Beth, who initially released <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/savage-jehnny-beth-im-the-man-909739\/\">\u201cI\u2019m the Man\u201d<\/a> last month, also announced she will perform at All Points East Festival in the U.K. and at the Heartland Festival in Denmark in May 2020. \u201cI\u2019m the Man\u201d is Beth\u2019s second solo effort following her work on the soundtrack to Showtime\u2019s&nbsp;<em>XY Chelsea<\/em>, which she co-wrote and recorded with long-time producer Johnny Hostile, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/t\/savages\/\" id=\"auto-tag_savages\" data-tag=\"savages\">Savages<\/a>\u2019 last album dropped in 2016.<\/div>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/jehnny-beth-im-the-man-video-920891\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jehnny Beth has released a music video for her recent solo track \u201cI\u2019m the Man,\u201d which comes off the soundtrack to the fifth season of Peaky Blinders.
