This week, high-streaming Def Jam artist O70 Shake chose her girlfriend to be the centre of attention in the official music video for her latest single, ‘Winter Baby/New Jersey Blues’. The visual opens with Depp selecting a record to hear from an old coin-operated jukebox. As Shake’s lady stands amid a shimmery room divider in a tight pink dress and white lace gloves, the music commences and inspires her to prance across the floor. Pulling inspiration from Wong Kar-Wai’s 1995 neo-noir film ‘Fallen Angels’ and Gaspar Noe’s 2018 psychological horror film ‘Climax’, the visual offering plays into the 1950s jukebox pop feel of ‘Winter Baby’ before transitioning to its more contemporary twin ‘New Jersey Blues’ with the incorporation of distorted 808 bass. With Lily-Rose in the role of a classic femme fatale and Shake as her elusive love interest, they defy the public’s judgment and deliriously pursue each other like rebels to the world, setting the stage for Shake’s forthcoming gothic epic.

The visual shows their chemistry on camera and gently informs the audience who she belongs to (see the last frame, displaying her white lace undergarments). It shouldn’t be your inaugural moment with the Kanye West and Pusha T collaborator, but we wouldn’t be alarmed if it was. In any event, watch Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis’ daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, dance for and seduce her lady in the centre of a bar. Bennett Watanabe directed the music video, and Dave Hamelin produced the track. It is also part of her forthcoming album ‘Petrichor’ set to release on November 15. Check it out.
