Written by SOURCE on March 6, 2020
SAINt JHN has returned with another one-take video, this time for the “Roses (Imanbek Remix).”
In the visual, we see the artist and three women through the windshield of a car. They dance as lyrics appear at the bottom. This iteration is quite different from the original “Roses” video from 2016, which was shot in black and white. The song was later featured on SAINt JHN’s debut project Collection One in 2018.
The Brooklyn native released his latest album Ghetto Lenny’s Love Songs last August. “They’re both collections,” JHN told Complex. “Collection One is a part of a series. Ghetto Lenny’s Love Songs is a collection. That’s just the title of the collection. In the future, I might come out with another collection that has a different spirit and a different motif. For this one, I want it to be, I guess a little bit more specific because the motivation for this: I was picturing what it would be to marry a stripper. In my mind, I was like, ‘Whoa, I got to imagine what this relationship would be like.'”
He continued, “I think it’d be passionate and volatile and beautiful and tumultuous and strange, soft, aggressive, all these things. I never married a stripper, but it felt like it.”
