AceShowbiz - A music video in companion to Drake's single "Successful" has made its debut with one of the featured guests in the track, Trey Songz, making a cameo. The other musician, Lil Wayne, who also lends his vocal to the song doesn't appear in this video though.
The video is directed by Jake Davis and was shot in Toronto, Canada. It features new verses from Trey in a bid to replace the missing lyrics from Weezy. Commenting on the scenes he and Trey filmed, Drake told MTV, "It was so eerie. Like it was haunting, almost. 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."
"Successful" is taken from Drake's mixtape "So Far Gone" which has been confirmed to get a re-release treatment across U.S. on September 15. The song so far peaked at number 3 on Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
