The pair, who appeared to be on a set, hugged and mouthed the words to the upcoming single as the recording continued. In addition to the snippet, Brown wrote in the caption alongside a rating meter, “Stay Tuned.” Immediately following Brown’s upload, Cole reposted the video on her respective account.

When the clip made its rounds online on social media blog sites, many fans voiced their opinion on how they felt about the record. The majority of the comments raved over Cole and Brown’s latest project.

“I’m here for it sounds like a bop.”

“I actually like the song it’s giving let it go Keyshia.”

“Okay this sounds like a hit.”

“I’m actually feeling this it sound like a vibe.”

Among the positive reviews, others pointed Brown and Cole’s chemistry in the video. One wrote, “Keyshia got good chemistry with athletes.” Another said, “I thought this was her new boo from how they were acting lol.”

A third person stated, “I see chemistry.” Despite the “chemistry” remarks, no additional details regarding Cole and Brown’s relationship status have been released. Cole has been publicly linked to rappers Jeezy, Birdman, Bow Wow, and Niko Khale. She was also married to former NBA player Daniel “Booby” Gibson.

Her most recent relationship was last year with a man named Zay. Although Cole hasn’t publicly confirmed that the pair went their separate ways, she swore to remain celibate in 2022, following another presumed failed relationship.

At the same time, Brown is engaged to the mother of his three children, Chelsie Kyriss.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
