Eric Bellinger is readying us for the summer. Today, the Grammy-winning artist amps up the heat by releasing the music video for his single “Drop,” featuring the dynamic Sevyn Streeter. Trinidad James directed the video, which is a dazzling spectacle that perfectly complements the song’s infectious energy.
Already a streaming sensation, “Drop” is the third single off Bellinger’s acclaimed album The Rebirth 3. With a staggering 1.3 million US streams, it has significantly contributed to the album’s impressive 21.8 million.
“Anytime I have a chance to create with my friends, work never feels like work, and ‘Drop’ was no different!” Sevyn Streeter passionately explains. “We knew instantly that it was full of energy and felt like summer, so the video had to exude that same vibe. Shout out to Trinidad James for his positivity and Tiffany Simone for the choreography that does just that! This was a project fueled by passion and dedication, and we hope it resonates with you.”
In the video, we see “Eazy” and Streeter explode with their signature blend of love, sex, and magic love — amplified by a backdrop of dancers. The song speaks to the complexities of modern love — with a unique take on the challenge of commitment in today’s dating landscape.
“‘Drop’ is the last song I recorded for the album. I thought I was done,” says Bellinger. Lucky for his fans, the R&B King was just getting started.
“I thought it was ready … But that extra push took us to a different level of victory! This is by far one of my favorite songs I’ve ever made,” he says. “From the up-tempo pace to the smooth melodies, lush harmonies, hard-hitting bass, and the angelic voice of Sevyn Streeter, it’s safe to say we got one!”
