Melvoni's 'Weekends' music video will have you ready for his new album
Brooklyn’s own Melvoni is on the steady grind and making it count with the rollout of his new This Is Not A Drill studio effort. To celebration the new LP, Mel comes through with his new ‘Weekends’ music video premiere.
There’s endless celebrating - from the star-studded project including collaborations with 21 Savage and Kaliq to showcasing his on-camera presence in the new video. Peep the details and check out the new video below.
Over the course of 14 tracks, he levels up in terms of both his razor-sharp rhymes and hypnotically hyper catchy melodies. Among numerous anthems, horns pipe up on “COUNTING SHEEP” [feat. 21 Savage]. His emotionally charged verses snake around a skittering beat, and he confesses, “I see demons when I close my eyes.” As Melvonicarries the hook with charisma and confidence, GRAMMY® Award-winning multiplatinum superstar 21 Savage pulls up with an irresistible and incisive guest spot of his own. Cinematic piano sets the stage for “TAN BANDANA” as he exclaims, “I turned myself into a boss, I feel like Gotti, but I won’t go out like Gotti.” Acoustic guitar underlines the spacey “OZONE,” while the classy old school sample complements his unfiltered storytelling on “THE STORY OF LIL SUV." THIS IS NOT A DRILL illuminates every side of this dynamic force of nature and bulldozes a path for much more to come.
Plus, the project boasts the recent single “Chrome 2.” Right out of the gate, it gathered 442K YouTube views and counting on the music video. Meanwhile, UPROXX named it among “The Best New Hip-Hop This Week” and noted, “Melvoni skates over the slow drums and piano keys adorning ‘Chrome 2’.” Additionally, it includes “BEAM” [feat. Dougie B & KALIQ], which has generated 502K YouTube views on the music video.
Bubbling to the forefront of the game since 2019, the Brooklyn native whose family hails from Jamaica, West Indies, has racked up tens-of-millions of streams and views across “No Man’s Land” (featured in Bel-Air: Season1), “Big Rocks,” “NY,” “Get Money” ft. DDG + Tyla Yaweh, and more. As such, he continues to attract hundreds-of-thousands of monthly listeners on Spotify, building a devout audience in the process.
