NEW MUSIC: MARY J. BLIGE FT. ASAP ROCKY / G-EAZY

Mary J. Blige has released the music video for her hit single “Love Yourself.” The visual also comes with a new verse and appearance from A$AP Rocky. Kanye West is featured on the official song, off Mary’s Strength of a Woman album, however it’s unclear why ‘Ye does not appear in this version. A$AP serves as a good replacement, though, as he delivers a slick verse filled with witty rhymes about his lavish lifestyle over the DJ Camper-produced tune. The video is directed by Taj & Dre, and was shot in both New York and Los Angeles.

                             

Fresh off celebrating his 28th birthday, rapper G-Eazy shared the visual for one of his latest singles, “Shake It Up.” The track features fellow Bay Area rapper E-40, as well as MadeinTYO and his brother, 24hrs. The video takes place in a strip club, with pink lights gleaming down the white walls as girls dance on poles and G-Eazy makes it rain with his Supreme Cash Canon. The accompanying visual matches up with the song’s subject manner, in which G-Eazy celebrates his come-up after a number of struggles.
Speaking of G-Eazy’s birthday, take a listen to the three singles he put out in celebration.
