Jhené Aiko Links Up with Ab-Soul for “One Way St.” Visual
If anyone can get Ab-Soul out of hiding, it’s Jhené Aiko. Before releasing the deluxe version of her third studio album, Chilombo, the songstress treats us to the official video of the original project’s album-cut, “One Way St.”
Directed by, Aiko and Ab-Soul are found in various spots of Los Angeles reflecting on this roller coaster we call life.
“Stuck in traffic on the road less traveled, no fast track/That’s how life’ll do you, I had to learn to backtrack,” spits Soul.
During a Q&A with fans, Aiko said she was inspired to write the record after literally driving on the wrong side of the street.
“One Way” marks the sixth collaboration between Aiko and Soul.
“I know what I like to hear and I wanna be able to listen to my music and love it as if it were, you know, another artist ’cause I feel like, because it’s me I can get tired easily and be like “Oh, okay. I know what I sound like, I was there when I made the song,” said Aiko in an interview. “But I love to get the songs to the a point where I can listen to them, myself and just be detached from the fact that is me.”
Watch the two in “One Way” below.
Earlier this year, Skilla Baby released his 16-track project, “The Coldest,” via Geffen, featuring collaborations with Polo G, Flo Milli, Moneybagg Yo, G Herbo, DaBaby, Rob49, Mozzy, NoCap, Jeremih, and Tay B.
The Detroit native has now returned with the official deluxe version, which includes additional tracks such as “Soulja Slimm” featuring Rob49, “Bobby Trap on The River,” and “Body Bangin’,” among others. The deluxe edition also features contributions from Bossman DLow, Baby Money, and Southside.
“I took my time to put this project together… Sometimes, I feel like people try to place me in a box. The pressure of being a new artist, being successful, staying disciplined, and still clocking into the studio is very strenuous but fun at the same time,” Skilla shared during the album’s initial press release. “As an artist, I’m known as the ‘girl’s guy,’ but I’ll never forget I come from the streets. As a real person, I feel so many emotions: mad, sad, happy, anxious, etc. I say that to say sorry for the wait, but I wanted to put everything I feel into one project. Grab your coats…,” he continued.
The deluxe version of “The Coldest” follows Skilla Baby’s joint tour with Rob49, “Vultures Eat The Most Tour.”
