RJAE: The cameras are rolling for the new 'Her Favorite Jhené Aiko Song' music video
If the song is fire, then you know a music video is always vital. So it’s a no-brainer rap crooner RJAE had to come through with the visual treatment for his hard-hitting ‘Her Favorite Jhené Aiko Song’ anthem.
It’s all types of cinematic and must-see action from start to finish for the popular singer. Tap in.
Today, Wednesday, September 20, New Orleans R&B singer-songwriter, RJAE has dropped the music video for his hit single, “Her Favorite Jhene Aiko Song” with a network premiere on BET Soul & BET Jams.
Teased earlier this week on RJAE’s Instagram page, the visual directed by Sadat opens to RJAE in an empty studio rewatching VHS footage of his former lover as he sings, reminiscing on the times they shared. Ultimately, RJAE is consumed by his thoughts as he’s had no closure and drives feverishly to his love interest apartment while trying to call her. As he arrives, he’s met with the icy heartless eyes, who has clearly moved on. The visual ends with a flashback of all the events played out in the music video to RJAE waking up with the answer he needed to find closure.
The emotional track continues to showcase RJAE’s lyrical depth and explores more deeply his vocal range which can also be heard in his recent freestyle cover of Jhene Aiko’s “W.A.Y.S.” RJAE explains his songwriting process during his On The Radar interview saying “A lot of the times when I make music and I want people to hear it, like this song is something I wanted her to hear, I’m low key throwing shots at her, I knew she would go to it and that’s just me being toxic.”
The new music video release arrives off the heels of RJAE’s recent album debut as a new Roc Nation signee titled You’re The Problem. The album features breakout summertime love anthem, “Remember That” with A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and “Too Gone” featuring NBA YoungBoy. RJAE taps into raw and unfiltered emotions and embarks on a journey of self-reflection in healing in this project through his crafty lyricism and unique flow.
“This project has really been about reflecting on my relationships, romantic and personal, and coming to terms with the fact that I am the problem, hence the title of the project. I’m on a journey of healing and being a better version of myself not just for me but for everyone in my life” RJAE said about the project.
RJAE also collaborated alongside his fellow Roc Nation artists to deliver the recently released Humble Soles Mixtape project in celebration of Hip Hop’s 50th Anniversary. RJAE delivers powerful performances vocally and visually in Tale of 2 Legends,Takeover, Cypher as seen on Bars on I-95, and subtle mentions during his On The Radar Freestyle.
