Stormzy unveils the new Meji Alabi-directed music video for His “Need You” song featuring tendai & Ayra Starr. The piece of music was co-produced by P2J, tendai, Tempoe, Juls & PRGRSHN.
Stormzy has shared the new music video for his latest single, “Need You,” featuring Ayra Starr and Tendai.
The track originally appeared on the MC’s 2022 album This Is What I Mean – his critically-acclaimed third No.1 record in the UK.
In the video, which was directed by renowned British director Meji Alabi, Stormzy enters a luxurious setting in an opulent bar filled with finery and fun. Starr leads him into a separate room, where the pair begin a romantic flirtation while Tendai performs for the rest of the venue’s patrons in the main room.
Having just been spotted on the Met Gala red carpet, Stormzy has been keeping busy with the odd appearance in the public eye. And while Big Mike has been recently seen performing at the BRITS, and even sat down with British documentary-maker Louis Theroux for an in-depth interview, Stormzy still refrains from entering back into the world of social media, so any new material from the London-based rhymer is always much-welcomed.
With this being said, Stormzy’s latest music video accompanies the suave, Afro-tinged sonics of “Need You,” with Stormzy’s clean-cut melodies and rhymes being sandwiched by complementing performances from Ayra Starr and Tendai. For the visuals, directed by Meji Alabi, we’re welcomed into a realm of luxury as we follow Stormzy’s romantic interest in Ayra Starr. For added excellence, Tendai then enters the cut with some soothing vocals to keep the crowd engaged.
