DaBaby: The new Sexyy Red-featured 'Shake Sumn' remix video is mind-blowing
Need a little more heat for the summer? Look no further than what DaBaby is serving up these days with help from hip-hop artist Sexyy Red in their new ‘Shake Sumn’ remix music video. Holy. Smokes.
It’s a hard-hitting tune but adding this visual flex to the mix? My goodness. Peep the details and keep scrolling to see the duo in action.
Following a scorching, hot run with the three-pack EP CALL DA FIREMAN, DaBaby (South Coast Music Group/Interscope Records) has returned to keep fans moving with “SHAKE SUMN (Remix)” featuring Sexyy Red. DaBaby and Sexyy Red take center stage for the remix as they trade raunchy bars over the Charlie Heat-produced record.
The fun continues in the official music video directed by DaBaby, where guest star Gianni Paola from STARZ’s Power Book II: Ghost is held hostage by Sexyy Red and her rump-shaking cohorts. The satin durag-clad actor seems scared for his life while in the clutches of Red but ends up turning up with her crew while DaBaby plays a fireman attempting to cool off the hot scene.
The visuals for the remix come after the releases of the music videos for “SELLIN CRACK” featuring Offset and the original “SHAKE SUMN.” For “SELLIN CRACK,” Dababy and Offset recreated scenes from the classic film New Jack City while “SHAKE SUMN” had the Grammy Award-winner taking up shop in an abandoned warehouse for an all-out dance party.
DaBaby’s “SHAKE SUMN” is the lead single off his latest EP, CALL DA FIREMAN, which was released in May. With a total of 64 million U.S. streams, the single has been a force to be reckoned with on the Billboard charts. It peaked at No. 13, No. 21, and No. 69 on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and Hot 100 charts, respectively. The record has also hit new peaks in several charts, including Urban Airplay at No.16, R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay at No. 19, and Rhythmic Airplay at No. 24. The original version of “SHAKE SUMN” has also landed in the Top 15 of the Urban Mainstream radio chart by taking sole possession of the No. 14 spot.
DaBaby has also been busy on the promotional circuit for “SHAKE SUMN” as he hit the red carpet at the 2023 BET Awards in June and is currently on a club promo run, making his way to various nightlife spots across the country to promote the hit record.
