Jack Harlow‘s surprise album, ‘Jackman,’ may be en route to selling less than half of its predecessor’s first-week numbers but that isn’t deterring the rapper-actor from moving full speed ahead with its promotion.

The latest supportive effort for the 10-track project comes courtesy of the video treatment afforded to its housed cut, ‘They Don’t Love It.’
