Listen to \u201cCloser\u201d <\/strong>on ICY\/Warner RecordsHERE<\/a>. They also unveiled the blockbuster music video to the track last February 15, a post-Valentines treat to all their lovely fans in the Philippines and across the world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the music video (directed by Hanna Lux Davis), Saweetie and H.E.R. take themselves (and their icy friends) on a trip around the world via ICY Airlines!

Coasting above funky electric guitar, Saweetie<\/strong> lays out a blueprint for fun: \u201cI wanna fall in love for the weekend\/Three boyfriends I don\u2019t know where I’m sleeping\/We be thuggin\u2019, clubbin\u2019, f*ckin\u2019\/Order room service when we done, that’s the sequence.\u201d<\/em> H.E.R.<\/strong>\u2019s breathy, emotive hook is a fitting accompaniment. With a beat designed to soundtrack a dancefloor, and lyrics that call you there, \u201cCloser\u201d<\/strong> is a mesmerizing single that demands to be repeated. The track is also yet another reason to be excited about Saweetie<\/strong>\u2019s forthcoming debut album, Pretty Bitch Music<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
