Drake new track "FIND YOUR LOVE off is up coming album"THANK ME LATER"
DRAKE FIND YOUR LOVE WITH OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO – WORLD PREMIERE
Drake and co. just premiered the video for his second single “Find Your Love” co-produced by Kanye West on MTV.com. This video was directed by Anthony Mandler and filmed in Kingston, Jamaica. It’s stars dancehall artist Movado and the lovely Maliah Michel.
“Find Your Love” was co-produced by rapper Kanye West, making it his third collaboration with Drake after directing the video for “Best I Ever Had” and featuring on “Forever”. When speaking to MTV News in 2009, Drake called the song’s co-producer and rapper Kanye West, “the most influential person on his sound”, stating,
“Before I ever got the chance to meet him, Kanye West shaped a lot of what I do, as far as music goes, We always, always, always took the time to listen to Kanye’s music and appreciate it beyond. We searched the samples and find out where his inspiration came from, because he has one of the best ears in music, period. He knows how to recognize great music that’s not his. He knows how to utilize great sounds and great music. So before I met him, I had the utmost respect for Kanye West. I’d even go as far as to say he’s the most influential person, as far as a musician, that I’d ever had in my life.”
In an later interview with MTV News Drake said that he felt the song should have been performed by a woman, stating, “Find Your Love is an extremely vulnerable song. And it’s actually a huge risk. It almost feels like the song should be performed by a woman. I’m just hoping that men really hear the song and they’re honest with themselves. I know a lot of men feel that way.”
The music video was shot with Anthony Mandler, director of the “Over” video in Kingston, Jamaica during the week of April 12, 2010, exclusively revealed to Rap-Up. Drake told MTV News, “We went to Kingston, We went to this ‘hood. They call it the ‘gully’ side. It’s bad out there, real bad. They had ‘Young Money’ sprayed on the gates, ‘Drake and Wayne,’ ’cause I came to shoot the video out there. I’m talking about you drive by people’s homes, they had ‘Drake,’ ‘Young Money,’ ‘Drake, Welcome Here,’ ‘Drake We Love You’ — crazy sh–, man. It was so crazy. This dude was like, ‘Original Weezy tha God! You tha boss! Weezy tha God!’ It’s crazy. They love us, ’cause we show love out there.” The video was released on May 11th, 2010 via Drake’s blog. The video had cameos of reggae artist Movado, and professional model Maliah Michel.
