New Video: Teairra Mari – ‘Sponsor (ft. Soulja Boy)’

Published: Tuesday 9th Mar 2010 by Sam

R&B singer Teairra Mari premiered the video for new single ‘Sponsor’ a few moments ago exclusively on World Star Hip-Hop. Check out the Yolande Geralds directed clip above…

Put simply; the video pretty much serves its purpose. Though perhaps not as glossy as I imagined based on the stills and the behind the scenes footage, the clip is good enough to assist the song’s  ascent up the charts. Here’s hoping it does just that, as the song is fire on a track!

Tidbit: The only minor gripe I have with the video is that Gucci Mane’s rap is still included. With him not featuring in the video due his incarceration, it kinda just ate up time.

What do you think of the video?

    this song is good for what the subject matter is : / and them shiny over sized bacon bits on that gymnastics outfit did her no justice with all that horrible dancing but like i said.. this song is good for the subject matter so it will do something

  3. trizzy March 9, 2010

  4. Shardboi March 9, 2010

  5. zenguru March 9, 2010

    she more talented than the music she is putting out, she isnt giving us anything new

    also i think she need to train harder on the dance moves

  6. no tea, no shade March 9, 2010

    I love it.. absolutely LOVE it… She ended up spendin her OWN stacks too!! We up in the bank!

  7. stellastar March 9, 2010

    y has this become MUSIC!!! and the subject of the song is disgusting a woman needs a ‘sponsor’ hate hate it. tea mari is far prettier and talented than this rubbish

  8. trucie March 9, 2010

    eh it was aiiight. i guess. the song still rocks. love this track!

    i like the track better than the video. This video had real potential, and I’m surprised they didn’t run with it. I always imagined T. Marie singing this song dressed up in athletic gear. Like in one scene, she’s in a s*** track suit dressed as an olympic sprinter. The next scene, she’s a gymnast, or a tennis player in the next scene singing, “I got myself a sponsor . . .” You know, it could’ve been really silly.

    Nivea and Tearria Marie dropping albums this year. So excited!

    Teairra killed it!!
    SouljaBoy…waste of time…

  11. Aunt Jackie March 9, 2010

    Cute! She deserves this little hit, especially since she was dropped from the Roc without so much as a bye from Jay-Z.

  12. La March 9, 2010

    UM AS YOU SEE AT THE END SHE PULLS OUT HER OWN AMERICAN EXPRESS CARD,PAY ATTENTION BEFORE YOU MAKE A SILLY COMMENT CALLING HER A GOLD DIGGER. SHE’S SAYING SHE HAS HER OWN,IN WHICH SHE DOES, BUT HER MAN SHOULD HAVE HER BACK ANYWAY.

    ANYWAY….

    I LOVED THIS TRACK FOR LIKE 3 OR 4 MONTHS NOW,ITS AN ABSOLUTE BANGER FOR THE SUMMER I JUST PRAY THEY PROMOTE HER BETTER THIS GO!

    i was just watching the tyra show on sugar-babies yesterday..and that is exactly what teairra is, lol!

  14. trizzy March 9, 2010

    If homegirl had her own credit card in the first place she’d have no need for a “sponsor”. Sit down. Song + vid is wack, watch it flop harder than her last 2, 3, 4 singles.

  15. Novelette_beauty82 March 9, 2010

    “If u tryna git it theres some work to come wit it”

    ^That line pretty much sums up the whole track. ‘H**’ is written all over it.

  16. Quiana March 9, 2010

    Lord have mercy what is this mess. T. Mari needs to come correct if she wanted to be taken seriously in this business. This song is whack, this girl came sing better than this and I don’t know why she’s not using her voice instead of this mess here. I guess you have to do what’s popular to get notice I guess, but this is not it. Sorry people. Not feeling this because I know she can do better than this.

  17. GetitIn March 9, 2010

    This is awful on all accounts. Both the song and video look and sound so dated.

    FLOP

  18. Rob March 9, 2010

    That was some hood s*** right there

  19. Durrel March 9, 2010

    Well I love the song and the video is just as nice. Yea so maybe the dancing in the beginning was a lil…off…but she looked GREAT and I can see the video doing the song justice. Like people said before..its up to the label to put promo into her and the song in order for it to be a hit. I’m really rootin for this girl.

  20. Ms. CLaY March 9, 2010

    I hate this song! The song sounds terrible and the message is awful as well. I was never a Teairra Mari fan, and from the looks of it I probably will never be a fan. When I first heard this song, I thought it was Keri Hilson, but when I listened to the lyrics I knew Keri wouldn’t write this BS. Smh. Well good luck to her anyway.

  21. Aunt Jackie March 9, 2010

    @ Everyone blasting the message of the song and saying it’s a H** song. You all really should take a look at some other songs, too. It’s not that serious.

    Beyonce says “Record me on your video phone”

    Rihanna says “Can you get it up? Iz u big enough?”

    Gaga says “I wanna take a ride on your disco stick”

    Ke$ha say “Don’t be a little B*tch with you chit chat just show me where your d*cks at”

    Tierra Marie says “My man he goes and bu bu buy buy…“If u tryna git it theres some work to come wit it”

    Come on now it’s not THAT serious……

  22. MushyLove_1992 March 9, 2010

    @Aunt jackie

    THANK YOU! People know damn well if their favorite artist was singing this song, they would be calling it “Epic”, “Great” and everything else. But since Teairra sings it, its a h** song. Hypocrite much?

  23. JAY March 9, 2010

    WELL I LOVE THE SONG…..THE VIDEO WAS AIGHT…HER DANCING SKILLS ARE HORRIBLE THO…

  24. oz March 9, 2010

    stupid and commercial as hell.

  25. simply me March 9, 2010

    eh, i like the verses she sings but the chorus ” I got myself a sponsor..” not really feeling this song too much. Out of 5 stars I would give it a… 2.7 lol.Come harder next time.

  26. cool chick March 9, 2010

    Sponser? really?!? B**** u ain’t ballin if u got a damn sponsor sit your ass down

    Ladies don’t listen to this rubbish so damn materialistic, men taking care of u? hell naw u take care of u. Bullsh!t bullsh!t bullsh!t. Tired of all the bullsh!t that is being fed to us
    Very disappointed cuz i was actually rooting for this trick smh

    bragging about money that u ain’t earn, got it from a man like it’s some kind of accomplishment h** be seated, good job Jay

  27. MS.CLAY March 9, 2010

    Agree with Cool Chick!

    I despise that type of message in a song especially from a singer who is trying to make a name for herself! Not a good look! Oh yeah, I say the same thing good job Jay! LoL!

  28. iker March 10, 2010

    la tia esta buena y el vide estya wapo asi de simpre y el tema movido asi ke se me decen un chupa chup jajajajaja seguir asi negra pasame tu msn anda

  29. anonymouss March 10, 2010

    we’re not saying showing sexuality in a song is bad , or h**-ish. we’re saying a woman that cannot supply her own needs cuz she thinks she too damn pretty to get a job, is a bad influence on young girls today. girls dont need a sponser to hook them up. they can do bad by themselves!

    besides love game >>>>>> sponser. the beat is out of this world, whereas sponspr sounds so 2005 lol. and lady gaga’s lyrics are deeper than just s**. u just gotta listen harder ;]

  30. CJ March 14, 2010

    Wow a lot of people dont understand what this song is about. It aint about gold digging fools smh

  31. Urbnflower April 11, 2010

    if gold digging is not what this is about then they need to make the message a little clearer. I’m disgusted really. I myself am an independent women and I dont expect a man to pay for what i’m responsible for but if he does i’m appreciative and if hes gentlemen enough to go beyond that then I am even more grateful. But this dosen’t sound like that this sounds like a gold diggers anthem. Its a bad message for young women and dosen’t reflect a grown women’s lifestyle.

  32. DIGGA April 21, 2010

    YO THE VIDEO WAS CRAZY HOT TIERRA DID HER 1-2 ,ITS CRAZY WHEN U SEE BEYONCE AN OTHER H*** DOING THEY THANG AN DONT GET THERE VIDEO’S BANNED BUT THE INDUSTRY BANNED SHORTY’S S*** REAL FUKKIN LAME AN FAKE SHE SHITIN ON H*** IN THE GAME!!!!!ALL I GOTTA SAY IS DONT BE SCARRED U B****** LMAO….DETROIT WUT AN I’M FROM THE NATI/CLEVELAND….OHIO THAT IS
