Detroit-based multi-platinum singer, songwriter and producer Mike Posner has finally unveiled the music video for his new song 'Be As You Are'. 

Posner recently released his debut EP ‘The Truth’ on June 23 and 'Be As You Are' is the offering's lead single. A press release explains the concept of the video: "The video sees people ripping up signs of negativity that has come their way and at the end Posner joins in with ‘Afraid’."

Speaking to Billboard about his new material, the star explained that it's more authentic and personal: “It’s just about being honest. I listen to a lot of stuff that’s out there, some of which I wrote, and I’m like, ‘Where is that? Where’s the honesty?’ So that’s what I want to get to in my music now.” 

He also recently told Notion magazine that he selected the four songs on his new EP carefully because they best represent what he wanted to put across to the public and to his fans:

"Well, I think that we picked the four songs on ‘The Truth’ EP because they’re a very accurate representation of the process as a whole. But the music- I call it singer songwriter music- new Americana music, there’s a lot of organic production; live drums, live bass, live guitar, live piano that we cut live. You know in ‘Buried in Detroit’ we had a 30-piece orchestra on that song. It’s a different sound for me. I’m very excited about it, personally. I just like how it came out, very much. I’m very proud of it. And… lyrically, I just want the truth."
