Saweetie surprised her fans, affectionately called the #ICYGang, on Valentine’s Day with the unveiling of her latest single, ‘Closer.’

Enlisting GRAMMY and Academy Award-winning songstress H.E.R. to assist, the SupaKaine-produced bop got nothing but love from both acts’ devoted fan bases – a reception reflected on this week’s Hot 100 as the tune premiered at #89.

In an effort to get it to higher heights on the hit list, Saweetie’s already hit the promo trail running in its support.  The latest of such ventures is a peek behind the scenes at the creation process of the tune’s Hannah Lux Davis-directed visual.

See how the GRAMMY-nominated rapstress and co. took flight on the airline-inspired music video:

Mary J. Blige stunned music lovers in December when she released a duo of comeback singles to kick off the era attached to her long-awaited 15th studio album.

Titled ‘Good Morning Gorgeous’ and ‘Amazing,’ the former tune would go on to top Billboard R&B charts while the DJ Khaled-assisted latter – though well-received on the critical front – failed to impel the impact of its parent album’s title track.

Could the tide for the braggadocious cut have been different if the original vision for it came to fruition?

In addition to serving as the executive producer for the soundtrack to the forthcoming Halle Berry film ‘Bruised’ (click here to view the trailer), Cardi B also contributes to the all-star tracklist which features the likes of City Girls, H.E.R., Saweetie, Latto, and more.

Her ‘Bruised’ feature ‘Bet It,’ which comes as a Latin-inspired cut that features interpolations of Camilo Sesto‘s 1972 hit, ‘Algo de Mí,’ kicks off the 13-song soundtrack and houses lyrics that speak to her fighting spirit (a fitting addition to the LP’s tracklist given the film’s subject matter).

“I don’t see one, only Cardi B want it / Then I want some shit, ’cause I done some shit / Checks on like I just won some shit / Shoot up the charge like I gun some shit / Gotta read my deal, ’cause I run this shit,” Cardi raps on the Cool N Dre-produced number.

The show has a lot of firsts – new songs, new dances, and a bunch of surprises that I was so excited to bring to life.”
