No Sugarcoating: Pusha T’s ‘Sweet Serenade’ Video Shoot With Chris Brown

Posted byBy Leo | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

As Pusha T gets closer to the release of his much-anticipated album My Name Is My Name, he has been releasing new records, making appearances and now he’s making a new video.

Pusha T brought fans behind the scenes for his upcoming video for his single “Sweet Serenade.” According to mtv.com:

“The album’s first official single ‘Sweet Serenade’ is anything but — and its upcoming video follows suit. “Sweet Serenade, it doesn’t sound really sweet. It’s pretty dark so to capture that we came and shot on the beach at night time, bonfire,” Push told MTV News on Monday from his video shoot at Playa del Rey in California.”

Sweet Serenade features Pusha T’s fellow Virginia native Chris Brown on the hook. Pusha also talks about his respect for Breezy.

“I like Chris. Chris has an edge to him that’s very real; he’s a real person, he goes through real situations,” Push said of his latest collaborator. “Me and Chris are just two passionate artists about our craft, and we actually give a damn.”

Push T’s My Name Is My Name is scheduled to be released on Oct. 8 and Pusha has high expectations.  ”It’s definitely gonna be the hip-hop album of the year. It’s the rap album of all rap albums,” he says.

Check out the Sweet Serenade behind-the-scenes video above, and listen to the full song below.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
