Before he releases his debut album later this month, Cautious Clay has shared a new song called "Strange Love."

The standout track is a collaboration with Chicago artist Saba, and it's the latest preview of Clay's full-length Deadpan Love, which arrives June 25 via The Orchard. It's accompanied by an animated video illustrated by Alex Futtersak.

“This song is about the push and pull of identity in late capitalism,” says Cautious. “We’re constantly told we need x, y or z to let the world know who we are, inundated with information about what the latest and greatest and coolest is. I love fashion and clothes and putting them together to telegraph myself to the world, but sometimes it’s hard to separate what I like from what I’m being told to like. I think it’s a struggle lots of people can relate to.”
