Queen Naija and Ari Lennox have unleashed the video for their new collaboration ‘Set Him Up.’
Directed by Val Vega, the colorful clip sees the rising R&B stars illuminate the song’s lyrics in style.
The track is one of five new cuts to be found on the deluxe edition of Naija’s album ‘missunderstood…still’ – due tomorrow (April 16).
Speaking on the release, Naija said:
“I had so much fun recording this song with Ari! We started recording it a while back and I’m excited we were able to come together and get it finished. I know a lot of women who have actually realized they’re dating the same guy. We thought ‘Set Him Up’ would provide a fun take on this crazy kind of situation!”

Kandi Burruss has long maintained multiple hustles and she shows no signs of slowing.
In recent times, the multi-hyphenate star has been flexing her acting skills and her latest role is in Lifetime’s ‘Envy.’
Part of the channel’s ‘Seven Deadly Sins Story’ franchise, the film is an adaptation of the book series of the same names penned by Victoria Christopher Murray.
Ahead of its premiere this Saturday (April 17), That Grape Juice‘s Chet Kincaid caught up with Kandi, who opened up about the flick.
With the season 13 climax of the ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ around the corner, it would be remiss of TGJ not to ask about what folk can expect. And she definitely dished on what she says will be a “crazy” climax for RHOA.
Watch our EXCLUSIVE interview above.
Kandi appears in ‘Envy’ alongside the likes of Serayah, Da Brat, DC Young Fly, Clifton Powell and Hosea Chanchez.
‘Envy’ premieres Saturday, April 17 at 8/7c only on Lifetime.

Acting continues to agree with multi-hyphenate diva Keri Hilson.
The GRAMMY-nominated singer-songwriter may be best known for topping music charts with tunes like ‘Pretty Girl Rock,’ ‘Turnin Me On,’ ‘Knock You Down,’ and more (as well as writing hits for the likes of Britney Spears, Mary J. Blige, and others). But – as evidenced by her appearances in a string of successful feature films on the big and small screen since the early 2010’s – her talents aren’t limited to the studio and stage.
No further evidence is needed than her latest movie venture, ‘Lust.’
Contemporarily, commercial comebacks don’t come any bigger than Mariah Carey‘s seismic return to chart dominance with ‘The Emancipation of Mimi.’
A legendary body of work that is now celebrating its sweet 16th anniversary.
Prior to its release on April 12 2005, the diva’s career was on uncertain terrain.
The underperformance of 2001’s ‘Glitter’ (which has become a legend in and of itself) effectively KO’d the star’s colossal Virgin Records deal; and then 2002 follow-up ‘Charmbracelet’ (her first release for Island Def Jam) did not deliver commercially either — despite favorable reviews and her omnipresence on the media promo trail.
Fortunately for the songbird, the latter LP – her first to be shepherded by LA Reid – would prove to be the calm before the showstopping storm.
For, following the one-two punch thrown by ‘Emancipation’s preceding singles ‘It’s Like That’ and ‘We Belong Together,’ Carey would go on to light the match on one of the hottest streaks of her iconic career. Unquestionably, the album saw her blaze her way to the top of the Pop cultural landscape once again.
With ‘Mimi,’ the star earned her 16th and 17th #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, was certified 6x Platinum in the US (pure sales), and sold over 12 million copies of the album worldwide. For many, the era served as a millennial mirroring of Tina Turner’s’ ‘Private Dancer.’ And arguably such a comeback story and level of success that has yet to be seen since.
In salute of the set’s 16th anniversary, That Grape Juice has tallied our top tracks from ‘The Emancipation Of Mimi.’
