Antonia - Iubirea Mea


Iubirea Mea - Antonia |

After writing up an article about this for CelebMix, I just had to include this sexy video on my blog. Antonia only recently came to my attention, being a part of Global Records and releasing amazing hit after amazing hit. Alongside her, in this music video, is her real-life partner Alex Velea; it's nice to see them team up on a song together, and he manages to surprise us completely by singing a part of the song himself! Watch Romanian power couple, Antonia and Alex Velea, show us their chemistry in this sexy music video for the former's new single "Iubirea Mea".

Antonia, full name Antonia Iacobescu, hit it big when her collaboration with Tom Boxer which gained her a bit of international fame, titled "Morena". She later charted well in her home country of Romania with "Marabou". Since then she has been building up her career and collaborating with some big names. She is also one of four girls a part of Global Records' project G Girls, which has produced hit singles "Call The Police" and "Milk & Honey". An uncredited feature in this song is her real-life partner Alex Velea, who has had a mildly successful career in music. As a couple, they are definitely two Romanian stars people are talking about. This song is another Romanian-language song, a follow-up to her fierce track and video "Dor de Tine". We all are hoping she releases a second studio album soon, as that would definitely be the icing on the cake. "Iubirea Mea" was written by Andrei Banica, Alexandru Cotoi, Sebastian Barac, Marcel Botezan, and Theea-Eliza-Ioana Miculescu.

Directed by Khaled Mokhtar, this music video is a pure performance piece that really calls on Antonia's modelling skills; this explains why she's so camera-friendly because in the past she has worked as a model. She's very comfortable during her scenes allowing that to transcend to Alex Velea, who has this macho exterior; yet, he obviously cares for Antonia.

It's nice to see them collaborate on a song together. They are certainly couple goals, which we've known from their previous Instagram posts, but seeing it all dressed around a sultry music video makes our jealousy 10 times more real.

As a whole, this visual is sexy in every way. I love the netting scene on the beach, with Antonia fully relying on her experience as a model; the shots in this scene is beyond beautiful. The other scenes are intricate, and it's nice to see Antonia and Alex Velea giving an insight into their relationship. Although, it does look like Antonia gets a little tangled up with the net during the bed scene but she deals with it well.

Chart Mondays: Jonas Blue Featuring William Singe - Mama


Mama (feat. William Singe) - Jonas Blue |

This is certainly set to become one of 2017's summer hits, for sure. It's already racking up chart numbers around the world, and Jonas Blue has done it all over again. Today is a Monday, which means it's Chart Mondays, and still at the top is Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee with "Despacito" featuring Justin Bieber, which doesn't have an official music video, and I doubt it will since there is one out already that doesn't feature Justin Bieber. Hence why I'm reviewing this music video by Jonas Blue, featuring William Singe. The song is certainly catchy with brilliant vocals; yet, the lyrics themselves definitely reminds me of Sunstroke Project's "Hey, Mamma!"; the message behind both songs is pretty similar. Watch William Singe give a great performance whilst he and Jonas Blue have fun with their respective girls in sunny Albania during this music video that oozes summer for "Mama".

Jonas Blue is a DJ and producer who's real name is Guy James Robin; he did a DJ set at Birmingham Pride 2017, which I am now gutted I missed because this song is a complete tune! He has quickly become one of the British DJs to watch out for, as each of his singles hit it big on charts around the world. To date, "Fast Car", is his biggest hit, but he easily followed that up with "Perfect Strangers". Regardless, his latest single is my favourite song from him, totally catchy and it definitely has summer vibes going on throughout. "Mama" may not blow up as big as his other singles, but it more than deserves to. It features William Singe, real name Liam Singe, who is an Australian singer, songwriter, and producer. He's most notable for being in the boy band The Collective, who had major success in Australia due to being formed on the fourth season of The X Factor Australia - finishing third. The group disbanded after three years when William Singe left the group to pursue a solo career. He released his debut single "Rush" in February 2017, and I truly believe this song will push him to become a successful artist as his vocals and style are on point. This song was written by Jonas Blue, Ed Drewett, and Sam Romans.

The music video was directed by Sasha Nathwani along the coastlines of Jale and Dhermi on the Albanian Riviera. It also stars Albanian supermodel, Oriola Marashi as Jonas Blue's love interest; she can also sing opera, and can clearly be an actress as this music video suggests.

The song is about being carefree and the music video easily showcases this, taking us back to the times when we go on holiday abroad and do the things we love to do. The narrative isn't as developed as it could be, and the shady deal scene seems totally out of place.

As for the performance piece, William Singe really nails it. He sends out energetic vibes that draw the viewers in. Unfortunately, we see more of the flimsy narrative, than the William Singe's performance.

The music video as a whole definitely attains to the song's summer sound and it's carefree nature of the lyrics; however, I feel that the storyline isn't complete and that they could have done so much more with this. On the other hand, just look at the single artwork below, pretty friken amazing!

EDX - Feel The Rush


Feel the Rush - EDX |

Having already reviewed this music video for Electric Mode, I thought it would be good to write it up for my blog so that I can dive deeper into the visual and see if I can come up with more thoughts on it overall. There isn't a lot going on in the visual, and it's quite disappointing considering the song is an amazing tune that I can't stop playing and will suit dancefloors all across the world; I also reviewed the song, itself,  for Outlet Magazine and Electric Mode. Watch an ethereal world where a woman prances through grass, meets a dog before heading into water; a man is looking for her and their rush of togetherness changes the scenery in this music video for EDX's "Feel The Rush".

EDX, real name Maurizio Colella, is a long-time DJ and producer who pretty much started way back in 1994. He's known for his many single releases as well as his high-profile remixes - he's done Danni Minogue, Deadmau5, Sam Feldt, Avicii, and Calvin Harris. This song is his sixth release in the past five months. It has already gained over a million streams on Spotify, so I'm sure DJs around the world are feeling the rush of this song right now along with their respective clubbers.

This music video doesn't entertain as much as the song itself does; certainly leaving the viewers wanting so much more. It doesn't really make much sense either, and hardly relates to the song.

It certainly has a hippie vibe going on, with the woman having the time of her life in the field, where she meets a dog. She finds a secluded spot to stroke the dog, and that's when more comes to find her.

Then the scene changes to a quite fit guy who is clearly searching for her. He finds her as she starts to walk into the water - I have no clue where the dogs have gone to. He stops her from going all the way in and they hug; during this time the scene around them changes to a black darkness, where she decides to get up and leave him in, towards the end.

Overall, the narrative fails to make sense of the song, with its light-hearted hippie vibe which then transforms into this darkness. It just doesn't work for me, and I was really hoping it would because I am obsessed with the song.

Elena featuring Glance - Mamma Mia (He's Italiano)


Mamma mia (He's Italiano) [feat. Glance] - Elena |

This song has been on my iTunes for years as part of a few compilation albums and the more I hear it, the more I am obsessed with it; it's such a good song. For the first time, I watched the music video, and it's completely epic, it's full-on amazingness in every way. How did this never become a global hit? This will be another lost treasure that we'll forever love. I always confuse this Elena, whose last name is Gheorghe, with Elena Paparizou, as I feel both singers have a very similar musical style, and they have both competed in Eurovision, only the latter won it in 2005; and they're both called Elena. Watch Elena get married in this tongue-in-cheek music video for "Mamma Mia (He's Italiano)" where she flirts with an Italiano guy during her wedding ceremony.

Elena, full name Elena Gheorghe, is mostly known for representing Romania in the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "The Balkan Girls"; she came 19th overall with 40 points. Prior to competing, she was a part of Latin group Mandinga, who have gone on to have global success since she pursued a solo career. They too took part in Eurovision, only they represented Romania in 2012, coming 12th with 71 points with their song "Zaleilah". Elena has gone on to have mild success after Eurovision, but it didn't continue as she released more amazing singles. As I previously stated, this song deserved to be a global sensation, as it is an addictive song. It also features Glance, full name Glance Al-Massany, who is a Romanian rapper. He has worked with many artists and has certainly made a name for himself.

The music video was directed by Dan Petcan. It's totally relatable to the song, completely wrapped around this wedding theme, which I have a full theory on, but more about that later. It stars Elena as the bride, an Italiano person she's singing about as one of the groomsmen, and Glance as another one of the groomsmen too.

The narrative starts with the bride and the groom getting ready in their respective rooms with their friends. Elena looks out her door to see the Italiano guy outside - the person she's singing to her mamma about. She takes a moment before heading out the door and engaging in a flirty commotion, where he chases her while she acts coy since she is the bride after all. She goes up to her groom and straightens his jacket, before heading outside with him to get married.

The narrative continues as we see the dinner and the party fully get on the way. The Italiano guy continues to come after her, but due to this song, her mother is always watching or stepping in.

During Glance's bit of the song, we see the groom and the groomsmen having a party in the room they were previously getting ready in. One of the bridemaids are dancing sexily over Glance, before turning her attention to the groom - who's hands previously wandered when he hugged her - loving the attention. Elena sees all this and puts a stop to it.

The party continues until near the end where Elena sees her groom and the bridemaid behind a tree, They are just ending their embrace and her dress is unzipped at the back; he withdraws his hand from under the back of her dress. At the very end, Elena is sitting on some steps changing her shoes, where the Italiano guy wraps his jacket around her before leaving with his mates.

Throughout the music video, we see a performance piece from Elena, fully proving that she has star power in every way. She unleashes comical energetic vibes that will be perfect on a stage. As for Glance, his small solo segment has more of a spotlight on the bridesmaid than anything else, he's totally outshined, and kind of gets lost.

Now here's my theory... If you look out for the dining scene, you'll see the Italiano guy standing on the table, at one point the bridesmaid gets onto the table with him and they grind together. This gets a slight jealousy look from both the groom and the bride... For all we know, the Italiano guy and the bridesmaid knew each other from years ago and have constructed this plan so that he can get with Elena and she can get with the groom. If it was all a plan, it sure was constructed perfectly.

Overall, the narrative of this music video is beyond perfection; Dan Petcan has done a terrific job of directing this music video, enough to the point where I can't believe he's not completely in demand by international stars; regardless he has done some other incredible music videos, including Ilinca's "Yodel It!", Voltaj's "De la capăt (All Over Again)", and Andreea Bănică's "In lipsa ta". As for this music video, Elena's acting skills are brilliant and her performance vibes are off the radar. This music video will be remembered forever!

New Release: George Ezra - Don't Matter Now


Don't Matter Now - George Ezra |

Making his debut on my blog is George Ezra with this feel-good summer song which will no doubt gain momentum as the sunshine starts to bake us all. He dips in and out of the public eye but was launched with his highly successful song "Budapest". It's undeniable that he has a brilliant voice that has definitely earned him a place amongst the music industry, it's just a shame that his music isn't to my taste; it's not something I personally would listen to, and this song in itself feels like he doesn't care about it. He sings it as if he's too relaxed and as if it doesn't matter at all when he sings. The backing track is much more appealing than the lyrics, and I bet the instrumental version is much more interesting than the song itself. Watch everyone have a great summer time in George Ezra's new music video for his recently released single "Don't Matter Now".

George Ezra, full name George Ezra Barnett, hit it big with his debut single "Budapest" which skyrocketed up the charts around the world. That catchy little single perfectly showed off how iconic his voice is; he then followed it up with an album which also sold well around the world and a few other singles. Now he's back with a brand new song that I was hoping would be addictive, and although the backing track certainly contains an upbeat summer-infusion, the lyrics fail to match well and his vocals doesn't really fit with the song. It just feels like he's singing a different song in a relaxed style, and I feel that it doesn't work all that well. The song was written by George Ezra Barnett and Joel Laslett Pott.

Directed by Marc Oller, the music video contains many actors, actresses and dancers; these people have been credited as the following: Adriá Brita, Daniel Chamizo, Anna Viñas, Harman, Pedro Muñoz, Targil, Jeldris, Lihon Sun, Julia Sanz, Shelia Gadea, Júlia Hernández, Julia Espinosa, Will McGrath, Xavier Salvat, Danielle, Gina Berenguer, and Aina Carafi.

The main scene throughout is George Ezra and his dog going on a road trip. The dog is totally loving life in the passenger seat; to be fair, so would I if I were in a car with George Ezra. The dog even has hair bobbles in his hair, can it look any more adorable?

As the instrumental chorus kicks in we follow other people, who are on a beach, in the video. There are three people performing choreography by Anna Macau; there are frisbee playing and badge loving "Don't Matter Now" people too.

Other scenes see people just having fun in the glorious sunshine. It's all very tongue-in-cheek with the pie-face, the dancing, the 'ouch' plaster, the heads in the sand, the kissing of a gnome. The ending sees George Ezra click the "Don't Matter" button in the car and speeds down the road, disappearing in a set of fire tyre tracks just like in the film "Back To The Future".

Overall, this music video works and relates to the song. It's nothing special but it completely turns the song into the visual and totally works. I may not like the song, and I may not like the music video, but I admit that they go well together and certainly bring summer vibes that we very much need in the UK at the moment.

Lady Antebellum - Love Don't Live Here


Love Don't Live Here - Lady Antebellum |

Quite the decision today for my Thursday Revisit, but ultimately went with Lady Antebellum's debut music video because this country group has the second most viewed post on my blog, ever! Their "Just A Kiss" blog post has over 4,000 views on my blog, and you can see that it's ranked number two at the very bottom right corner of my blog. This was their first ever single, and the music video is just as good. It's surprising to see Charles Kelley fronting the group with his voice, especially as we're used to him and Hillary Scott sharing the vocals, but it definitely proves he is a strong vocalist. Watch Lady Antebellum hit the road, showing the way they organise, prepare, arrange, and perform a gig in a small venue in this music video to "Love Don't Live Here".

Lady Antebellum are a three-piece country group consisting of Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley, and Dave Haywood. They released this debut single way back in 2007. They formed in 2006, with Hillary Scott having been rejected from American Idol twice. Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood have known each other since middle school and the former convinced the latter to move to Nashville to pursue a career in music; they met Hillary Scott at a Nashville music club after recognising her from Myspace. They formed the group and came up with the band name after they were photographing antebellum houses. As first singles go, it's completely catchy, and I love how it wasn't until a couple of years later that they finally had an international breakthrough with "Need You Now", although it did take some time to gain worldwide exposure with the song. Now, they've been going for over a decade now and they're still bringing brilliant hits, the latest music video has a similar style to this one, what with them performing in a small venue, the song of which is called "You Look Good". This debut song was written by Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley, and Dave Haywood.

The music video was directed by Chris Hicky. The group are together, hitting the road and preparing their first gig. It feels very small-towny and really endearing to watch. It's a great throwback considering nowadays social media would play an important part in spreading information about a gig.

I love how they create their own posters to give to people in the diner. That is literally an iconic part of this music video, especially as they invite the locals.

There is a performance narrative throughout with Charles Kelley taking on the lead, and it really feels like it's his show, his band; that it's all about him. I'm glad that wasn't the case throughout their career and all three are very much a part of this band.

I just love the concept overall, and it is really fitting as a debut single. However, does it really relate to the song all that much? Not at all, and that's totally what let this music video down because they could have been singing any song and it wouldn't have made that much of a difference. Regardless, the concept is great and I'd certainly watch again and again.

Lady Antebellum - You Look Good


You Look Good - Lady Antebellum |

Struggling today to pick a music video to review, then I realised that I haven't reviewed this one yet. Lady Antebellum dropped their new album, "Heart Break", this week - which I still haven't listened to, but I will do when I have iTunes credit; but, I do really like this song, and I cannot wait to listen to the rest of the album; I'm sure it's so fresh so fine! This song is catchy to no end, and along with a hundred other Lady Antebellum songs, it deserves to be a global hit; regardless, it becomes a treasured hit by me. Watch Lady Antebellum sing on stage to "You Look Good" as a woman walks to the country bar and a guy checks her out; damn, she looks good and so does he. This is a must-watch music video.

Lady Antebellum are a three-piece country group consisting of Hillary Scott, Dave Haywood, and Charles Kelley. They do all right in the UK, namely their albums chart well every time they are released, but I'm so disappointed that their singles never launches into the UK chart. Why is it so hard to get songs as good as this to chart over here? They have charted well in the past, managing to soar up high with their biggest international hit to date "Need You Now", which is still played on the radio today; but, I need them to have another one soon! This song takes Lady Antebellum down a new route, adding more instruments to their songs as the video shows; this has been a controversial move as many say they aren't country anymore; however, I've always believed there have been two major country styles, there's been "country & western" and then there's been what is starting to become known as "young country"; the latter of which Lady Antebellum has always fitted in along with many country musicians who have been getting hits on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. This song deserves so much more recognition. It was written by Hillary Lindsay, Ryan Heard, and Busbee.

Directed by Shane Drake and Roger Pistole, this music video has it all. There are a main actress and actor who eye one another up in this narrative combined performance music video. Their names have not been revealed, so feel free to comment below if you know who these characters are played by.

The narrative is cleverly infused with the performance piece. Our main character, a woman, who is looking extremely stylish, walks to a country bar where Lady Antebellum is playing. As the music video continues we see that a guy is eyeing her up - he looks pretty damn fine too. They chat for a bit towards the end of the visual, before he walks off, leaving her at the bar. We then get a "to be continued..." message. Will they link up all their music videos from their seventh studio album? I sure hope so, it'll be one great narrative for the "Heart Break" album!

Once again, Lady Antebellum kills it during the performance piece. Every time I see them singing their songs, I just want to spend the rest of my money on buying tickets to see them live. Yes, they are performing in the UK towards the end of this year, but I do not have money to buy tickets yet, and I reckon that by the time that I do, there won't be any that I can afford. Regardless they ooze energetic performance vibes with excellent emotion, completely nailing the song in every way. It is surprising that the song isn't written by them since they do such a good job of singing it.

Overall, it's not surprising that Lady Antebellum has given us another spectacular music video that I just can't get enough of. I may not get the chance to see them live, but I can certainly watch this music video again and again as they are on stage totally bringing it. I just wish there was a little more to the narrative. It relates to the song, but maybe they should've chatted for longer and ended the narrative there.

Fifth Harmony Featuring Gucci Mane - Down


Down (feat. Gucci Mane) - Fifth Harmony |

Little Mix wasn't the only girl group to drop a new music video, Fifth Harmony has also done so too. Although I much prefer "Power" over "Down" any day of the week, nonetheless this is definitely growing on me. This is their first release as a four-piece group after Camila Cabello left to pursue a solo career. The song is apparently a transitional single as we should expect a new style with their new album, although I really believe this song leaves so much more to be desired. I was hoping big things from these girls, especially after all the versions of their songs without Camila Cabello's voice, but this one single just didn't live up to the expectations I had. Watch Fifth Harmony perform in a motel parking lot alongside Gucci Mane in this music video for "Down", which is the first single to be cut from their upcoming third studio album.

Fifth Harmony are a four-piece girl group consisting of Normani Kordei, Lauren Jauregui, Ally Brooke, and Dinah Jane Hansen. They were formed as a five-piece on The X Factor (US), coming third overall; they have gone on to become the most successful contestant from all three shows of the series. After two albums, Camila Cabello left the group to pursue a solo career, leaving many fans worried the girls would split; instead, it made them stronger and they all manage to take the spotlight in this new song and music video. They have also kept their name, regardless of the fact that there is now four members instead of five. I'm hoping they manage to prove that they still can continue as a four-piece. The featured artist is Gucci Mane, real name Radric Davis. He is an American hip-hop artist, mostly known for the featured collaboration on Rae Stremmurd's song "Black Beatles". He has 10 studio albums behind him and has definitely been a slight force in the American hip-hop music industry; his longevity proves that you can make it if you don't give up. The song is a surprising collaboration, but it works perfectly for the summer; I'm totally ready to get down in an open-air club to this song! "Down" was written by Joshua Coleman, Radric Davis, Dallas Koehlke, and Jude Demorest.

Directed by James Larese, the music video sees the girls arrive at a motel and walk up the stairs to their respective rooms all whilst Gucci Mane introduces the song. This is the entire location of the music video and it seems like it has not been a high budget and it seems really simple; but as usual, the girls a fierce and bring it completely.

There's full-on choreography in the parking lot; nothing new for these four girls. They nail everything in-sync and it's completely polished. However, they don't look like they're having fun, more like they're just doing their job. This is something we keep seeing from these girls and we want something much more expressive from them. It may be the dance sequence that they've been given to perform.

As for Gucci Mane, he doesn't really take the spotlight fully because the girls tease us whilst being in a pool or hot tub. He's slightly memorable as he is on the steps or against the wall, and because he switches the song down; but, it just comes off a bit lacklustre.

Overall, this music video and the song doesn't work. We expected big things from these girls and they didn't live up to them. Instead, we get a transitioning single which is a total grower, but it'll be too late by the time we all love the song; and, a simple, done-before music video that doesn't go anywhere and doesn't relate to the song. I hope they recover with a follow-up single and a music video that blows our minds.

Chart Mondays: Ariana Grande - One Last Time


One Last Time - Ariana Grande |

I could've sworn I had already reviewed this music video, but it turns out that I haven't; which I guess is lucky since it is in the UK Top 10 Singles Chart, this week - although I did expect it to launch to the top of the chart; but, Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee is still holding onto the number one position with "Despacito" featuring Justin Bieber, which doesn't have a music video just yet. Every time I watch this music video I'm pretty sure I've reviewed it, I have that sort of recollection of writing about it, but I don't see a review on my blog. Oh well, here's one right now! Watch Ariana Grande in an apocalypse-type music video transporting the viewers into the visual for "One Last Time".

Ariana Grande has really come a long way from when she played Cat in Victorious and later in spin-off show Sam & Cat on Nickelodeon. Now she's a pop princess, totally becoming one of the biggest female artists in the world. Most-recently she made headlines when a terrorist attack targeted her concert in Manchester. Deciding not to let fear rule, she decided to host a benefit concert, with this song becoming the charity single for the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund. She managed to get many great artists to come together and perform on stage. If you didn't know who she was before this concert, you sure know of her now. The single has been out for some time, but the heartbreaking lyrics and the fact the song was the last song performed at her gig in Manchester before the fatal attack definitely made it the perfect song to become the charity single. It was written by David Guetta, Savan Kotecha, Giorgio Tuinfort, Rami Yacoub, and Carl Falk.

Directed by Max Landis and features Ariana Grande's Victorious co-star Matt Bennett. It has the end of the world feel to it as a comet comes crashing down to Earth, obliterating everything and everyone. To be fair, it's not the best music video considering the attack in Manchester, but this visual was released years before anything like this had happened.

As a whole this is almost a movie in itself; it certainly has a Cloverfield affect to it. It definitely transports the viewers into this film-like scene. We see comets flying through the sky as we watch Ariana Grande running all over the place, taking us to the top of a skyscraper. Along the way, we see some sights such as victims, gun problems, computer scary guy who attacks Ariana Grande and us; as well as firefighters, and a family huddling together.

On the rooftop, the sky is alive with comets falling to Earth. Ariana Grande grabs the cameraman, who happens to be her love interest, actor Matt Bennett, and hugs him as the biggest comet comes down and destroys the world.

Overall it's a great music video and definitely worthy of awards; however, I'm slightly disappointed that whenever we see Ariana Grande's face, she isn't singing the song. That's just a little annoying thing to this music video. It feels more like a scene from a film or a TV show than an actual music video, so it is disappointing. But, it works overall and totally relates to the song. It's definitely an unforgettable music video and completely deserves this rating.

Little Mix Featuring Stormzy - Power


Power (feat. Stormzy) - Little Mix |

Bringing girl power completely in this music video whilst spreading a universal message with the visual and including Stormzy too; Little Mix is fully bringing it with this one, and they definitely have the power to become the biggest and most successful girl group ever. Proving that girls can be strong; Little Mix spreads a monumental message around the world in this visual. Watch Little Mix bring girl power and female empowerment with each member representing a particular group of people, spreading meaning and equality; with a rap from Stormzy in this music video for "Power".

Little Mix are a four-piece girl group consisting of Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock. They are still the only group to win The X Factor in the UK; yes, even One Direction only came third in their series. This girl group won on series eight of The X Factor, and they are still going strong six years after their win. This song is their fourth single from their fourth album, which is their first and only UK number one album to date; although, I reckon they've got more number one albums coming in the future. The song adds a rap from Stormzy, updating the original song from the album. Stormzy, real name Michael Omari Owuo Jr., is one of the biggest British grime artists around at the moment, and has gone on to have major success; his debut album reached number one in the UK, with all 16 tracks making it onto the UK Singles Chart. This song was written by Don Omelio, Camille Purcell, James Abrahart, and Michael Omari.

Directed by Hannah Lux Davies, this music video is fierce and sassy, totally allowing the girls to bring female empowerment and girl power in this music video. There is one scene that sees three drag queens from RuPaul's Drag Race, who are Courtney Act, Alaska Thunderfuck 5000, and Willam. The ending scene sees the girls and their mothers head the march through the street.

There are four main scenes in this visual, with each of the girls having the spotlight in their respective scenes. Perrie is bringing the peace in her hippie style fashion. Jesy is a biker chick, proving that girls can do whatever they want and be whoever they want to be. Leigh-Anne is representing women of colour in the modelling industry. Whilst Jade performs in front of a gay nightclub with three drag queens backing her up; this visual comes almost a year after the awful Orlando shooting.

Then we see Stormzy getting his hair done in a salon, where various women are dancing around him. Surprisingly this is a great way of him showing female empowerment because his style is pretty much in their hands as they do his hair. His rap adds well to the song; although, I do prefer the original.

The ending scene sees women marching up the street. Little Mix are in front, heading the group. They are holding their hands of their mothers; women that they look up to. Overall the video is amazing in every way and really shows off Little Mix perfectly; and, kudos to them including people who may otherwise be misrepresented. This is just perfect.
