With all the news about pop star bad blood, it's always refreshing to learn that two incredible artists have recognized their mutual amazingness and teamed up. Such is the case with Solange and rising R&B star SZA (who was nominated for Best New Artist at Sunday night's MTV VMAs), as SZA confirmed that Solange had directed her latest music video.
In an interview with USA Today, SZA shared that Solange had connected with her a year ago, and since then had shot the video for "The Weekend," a song about "sharing" a partner with someone else. (And splitting time up between them — hence the name.) It's currently sitting at #75 on the Billboard Hot 100:
The video was shot at ten different locations, a feat perfect for the ever-innovating Solange. And as SZA puts it, they're not just great partners artistically: "I love her. I think the universe is just bringing us closer to each other. That's my homegirl."
Sooo when is the vid dropping? Keep an eye out on both women's social media accounts, for what's sure to be a visual and sonic stunner.
