Now with"3 Years Sober," a rock-rap banger produced by Travis Barker, Mensa continues shattering perceived limitations. The video, out now, shows Mensa, in an homage to iconic queer '90s Camp vehicle,dressing up in full drag — including a blonde wig, lipstick, and a Confederate flag dress. The latter represents what it means to directly confront symbols of hate and intolerance. Mensa then goes out in this look and is queer-bashed by other men.

"The '3 Years Sober' music video is about challenging convention and limitation; it's about shattering genre," Mensa tells."They say I can't make rock music as a hip-hop artist, or wear a dress and make up as a straight man & I say I don't give a fuck. The video makes political statements while also just pushing boundaries sonically and visually.
