Big Sean Hot New Music Video 2015: 'Blessings' Featuring Kanye West, Drake [Watch]
Big Sean has finally premiered the official music video for the extended version of the third single "Blessings," featuring Drake and mentor Kanye West, off his recently released third studio album, "Dark Sky Paradise."
The black-and-white visual was directed by Darren Craig and filmed in London a few weeks ago.
The Detroit emcee takes himself to church under stormy clouds, playing both white-clad priest and sinner in a confession booth; the scene perfectly fits in with the themes throughout his latest LP and its title.
Sean Don then takes time to look up to a looming light in the sky to give thanks for his opportunities and success, while shirtless with his arms outstretched. He is indeed "waaaay up," walking up a white stairway to heaven.
West also makes a cameo in the gloomy video, rapping his verse in a dark space and showing off his recently released, sold-out sneaker collaboration with adidas, Yeezy 750 Boost.
"I couldn't have been happier to go and shoot this video with two of the hottest rappers in the game," said Yeezy while sitting down with BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe recently. "Well, let's be respectful and truthful: the hottest rapper and one of the hottest rappers in the game. And I fall somewhere in that field."
The "IDFWU" hitmaker certainly has a good reason to feel blessed, as "Dark Sky Paradise" became his first No. 1 album, debuting atop the Billboard 200 Chart with 155-165,000 copies sold in its first week.
The G.O.O.D. Music artist took to his Twitter account on Wednesday to thank fans, writing: "Thank u guys for an amazing week and giving me my 1st #1 album! Dark Sky Paradise! The support means everything. truly Blessed!"
