Music Video: Jeremih & Ty Dolla $ign – “The Light”
Jeremih & Ty Dolla $ign have joined forces to give us this cool slice of contemporary R&B. “The Light” samples Keni Burke’s “Risin’ to the Top,” which has been sampled by everyone from the Mary Jane Girls to Mary J. Blige, and has become the soundtrack to MJB’s infamous two-step (dubbed “the Mary”). The song also includes an interpolation of Ahmad’s “Back in the Day.” Check the video out below.
As I’ve mentioned before, my expectations for music videos are usually not very high, and while this video isn’t particularly bad (it fits the song), it’s a little too similar to the “OTW” video, which only just came out and also features Ty Dolla $ign. And on top of that, it features problematic-ass internet personality, Dan Rue. No me gusta.
