Bilal Drops “Pleasure Toy” Video Featuring Big K.R.I.T.
Bilal continues to push product off his 2015 LP In Another Life. He recently released the video for his Big K.R.I.T.-assisted single "Pleasure Toy."
This is the fourth video released from the project which also features Kendrick Lamar. "Pleasure Toy" is a funkdafied ballet which finds Bilal bouncing between a groovy score. "I be your pleasure toy/Every time you’re feeling lonely, pleasure toy/Girl you scream 'I wanna be your pleasure toy'/Come and find me, come and turn me, turn me, on," he croons on the chorus.
Directed by Hans Elder, the visual finds the Grammy-award winning singer playing a mini-keyboard while supemodels Mari Malek and Diandra Forrest dance to his melodies in the background.
The treatment is sans K.R.I.T. whose verse still lives on. "Shawty, it’s hard to be subtle when you want what you want/Don’t need to whisper to me all the do’s and the dont’s/I know which buttons to push to start up your motor/Igniting your flame, then blow you out when it’s over/This that old school stroke you wish you had/I’m staying by, you clutch your Birkin bag/But those days that you wanna get through/Let me build a cabin for that ass with this wood," he raps.
Bilal has pushed his name further into the mainstream in 2016 after earning a Grammy with Kendrick Lamar for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration in February.
Last month, he performed at the White House along with Common and Robert Glasper.
