Drake has added music video director to his decorated résumé after calling the shots for the visuals on TVGUCCI’s new “Bora Bora” single — check it out below.
The Canadian rapper dropped the music video on Sunday (January 1) which shows him partying it up with friends and a bevy of bikini-clad women in what appears to be an all-white attire party. The 6 God makes his way through the crowd and pops up next to GUCCI with a drink in hand as everyone sings the chorus to the new track.
“I visit Bora Bora ’cause I’m bored/ Swish, I scored/ First class, all aboard/ Vision clear like the port/ Gucci drip, I need more/ Christian Dior/ They don’t sell us in the stores/ Bitch, I get it from the source,” the TVGUCCI raps in the video.
Drake is very close with the rapper as he’s shouted him out several times on songs such as “Middle Of The Ocean,” “War,” “No Stylist,” “Successful” and more. GUCCI even popped up in the video for Drizzy’s “Falling Back.”
TVGUCCI isn’t officially signed to Drake’s OVO Sound label but he claims the collective on his Instagram and even said the Certified Lover Boy rapper is his brother during an interview with CBC at Rolling Loud Toronto in September.
Drake is fresh off breaking yet another music milestone on Spotify thanks to his collaborative album with 21 Savage titled Her Loss. Last month, Spotify announced the album had surpassed one billion Spotify streams since it was released on November 4.
The news gives 21 Savage his first album to hit one billion streams on the platform, while Drake now holds the record with 12 straight albums crossing the mark. During an interview on SiriusXM Sound 42 in November, the OVO boss proclaimed that Her Loss is one of the “greatest albums” he’s been a part of and believes it could even crack the Top 3 in his decorated catalog.
“[Her Loss] is one of the greatest albums I ever made in my life,” he declared. “I said the other day, I think this is a clear entry into my Top 5 of my catalog — if not, Top 3.”
Her Loss debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and moved over 404,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, giving it the third-highest opening this year in music. Drake and 21 Savage had their 12th and third No. 1 album with Her Loss, respectively, and earned a total of 514 million on-demand streams.
