Skepta Shares Slick, Star-Studded Video For “Love Me Not” With Cheb Rabi And B Live
Written by SOURCE on July 29, 2019
Two months since Skepta‘s Ignorance Is Bliss dropped, to praise from critics and fans alike, and it’s still yielding rewards. Following on from “Greaze Mode” and “Bullet From A Gun”, we’ve now got the album’s third single, “Love Me Not” with Cheb Rabi and B Live. The self-produced, garage bubbler first attracted attention when the album dropped for its use of a Sophie Ellis-Bextor sample, and it’s still hard to believe how good it sounds.
In the video we open with a scene of a girl washing her hands of Skepta, telling him she’s sick of him and sick of his lies. To take his mind off things, he heads to a party where Heartless Crew’s MC Bushkin and Mighty Moe are on the mic while Slowthai, Octavian, Chip and Frisco can be spotted lurking in the background. There are worse ways to let off steam.
No doubt this won’t be the last video to come from Ignorance Is Bliss, but it’s by far one of the clear highlights on what is one of his finest albums to date.
