Video: Big Sean – “Single Again”

Published

on

After dropping “Overtime” and “Single Again” last week, Big Sean returns with the official video to his Ty Dolla Sign and Jhene Aiko-assisted record, “Single Again.”

Starring Ryan Destiny and Keith Powers, the visual finds Sean on trial for cheating allegations, however, focuses on the bigger picture of what it means to have your relationship in the court of public opinion.

“The visual highlights a few social issues, including social media’s ability to sway people’s opinions to the point of disharmony, the social pressures faced by Millennial’s and Generation Y and media coverage of the Black man,” said director, Lawrence Lamont. ” While bringing these key issues to light, I also wanted to capture Detroit’s beautiful spirit and style.”

Sean Don on Twitter: “I know what it’s like to be in social scandals where even with no information/ evidence, just people assuming will blame you and turn on you. / Twitter”

Kendrick Lamar Disses Drake & J. Cole on ‘Like That’ from Future & Metro Boomin’s New Album, ‘We Don’t Trust You’

Kendrick Lamar Disses Drake & J. Cole on ‘Like That’ from Future & Metro Boomin’s New Album, 'We Don't Trust You' miixtapechiick

Just moments ago, Future and Metro Boomin released their highly-anticipated new album, “We Don’t Trust You,” to the world.

One track that immediately stands out from the project is “Like That,” featuring Kendrick Lamar. On this particular record, the Compton native boldly takes aim at Drake and J. Cole. This seems to confirm the ongoing tension between Metro Boomin and Drake, which came to light a few months ago on social media. In the midst of this conflict, Drake referred to Metro Boomin as a ‘tweeter and deleter’ in a video response to Metro Boomin’s criticism of Drake and 21 Savage’s joint album, ‘Her Loss.’

Drake’s video sign-off, “Look at my eyes — you guys wanna do something? That’s what I thought,” prompted Metro Boomin to retaliate with a video skit referencing on “X” where the character says, “Whoa, Calm Down Jamal, Don’t Pull Out the 9.” This skit humorously portrays interactions between Black people and racist white individuals on a basketball court.

In “Like That,” Kendrick Lamar delivers incisive bars: “Sneak dissin’, first person shooter, I hope they came with three switches. I crash out, like, ‘F–k rap,’ this Melly Mell if I had to. Got two Ts with me, I’m snatchin’ chains and burnin’ tattoos, it’s up. Lost too many soldiers not to play it safe. If he walks around with that stick, it ain’t Andre 3K. Think I won’t drop the location? I still got PTSD. Muthaf–k the big three, n—a, it’s just big me. N—a, bum, what? I’m really like that.”
