Lil Dicky enlisted actor James D’Arcy as the Joker in the music video for ‘HAHAHA,’ and fans went wild.
Lil Dicky delighted fans with the release of his brand new album, PENITH (The DAVE Soundtrack). On January 19, the rapper took to Twitter/X to celebrate the release. “Thank you for your patience,” he wrote. “This is just the beginning. So much more music coming.”
The album boasts 14 tracks and contains only one feature. YG appears on ‘YG Interlude,’ sandwiched between ‘I Met a Girl’ and ‘No Fruits or Vegetables.’
Alongside the album drop, Lil Dicky also issued a music video. Actor and filmmaker James D’Arcy dressed up in a full Joker get-up for the new ‘HAHAHA’ music video, a visual Lil Dicky called “the best music video I’ve ever made.”

The rapper’s PENITH (The DAVE Soundtrack) serves as the sophomore follow-up to his 2015 platinum breakout, Professional Rapper. When he hasn’t been making music, he has been starring in the popular series Dave, which ran for three seasons on FXX. Needless to say, fans are demanding a fourth season.
