An almost-2-minute snippet of Drake's "Successful" music video has been outed. It shows similar scenes previewed in the previous sneak peek. The difference is that this clip sees footage of his collaborator Trey Songz lingering on a bed with a woman.
"It was so eerie. Like it was haunting, almost," Drake told MTV about the scenes he and Trey filmed. "I was like, 'Yo, that's it. You need to use that.' He started playing this patch, and just every note that he played fell into place."
Trey agreed with Drake's opinion saying, "It was simplistic, but it knocks. It's eerie, it's dark. The first thing I laid down was the gothic, reverb-driven harmony: 'arrrgh, arrrgh, arrrgh.' I couldn't think of what I wanted to hear on it, so I did a whole bunch of harmonies [until I found the right one]."
The video was directed by Jake Davis and shot in Toronto, Canada earlier this month. Coming off Drake's mixtape "So Far Gone", "Successful" actually has Lil Wayne's vocal on the hook in addition to Trey Songz's. But, its music video has been filmed without Weezy's verses.
In another news, Drake hoped to make a duet with Rihanna for his first studio album "Thank Me Later". He said, "We're just really good friends. We have great conversations about music, and we're trying to figure out the perfect song we can collaborate on for my album. I've only worked with one other female before (Mary J. Blige). I hope that Rihanna is onboard, and I'm also looking to work with Sade."
