Veronica Vega is the vocalist leading Polow Da Don‘s ‘Pay Me’, flexing her visual muscles for the jam’s music video which is now available to spin below!

The jam dropped just in time for summer and is one listeners are unlikely to ever forget.

Vega had this to say about it:

The star, whose ‘Jackie Tour’ wrapped its first leg last week, seems keen to share the joy that is her new beau Russell Wilson.

Initially, the singer wouldn’t confirm her union with the US football player, however she’s opted to quell any confusion with a series of loved up pictures. The latest saw the couple all smiles at Starbucks.

Music royal Mariah Carey has been named “queen” of many things:  whistles, Billboard Hot 100, shade, and, let some of us tell it…umm..the universe.
