Rashelle lays bare her life in the strip club in new music video for ‘Money 2 Make’ ft Connie Diiamond
UK's rising risqué pop sensation Rashelle just dropped her bass-heavy single 'Money 2 Make'. According to a press release, ‘Money 2 Make’ is a jam based around her life working the strip clubs, as we see an artist who is now willing to speak freely about her life, using these eye-catching visuals to express this change in heart.
Teaming up with highly rated Bronx rapper Connie Diiamond (who we previously saw in last years ‘Designer’ freestyle with Ms Banks – and also having recently collaborated and toured with Azealia Banks), and producer Morten Schjolin (Nelly, Jennifer Lopez), Rashelle has delivered this late night, club banger, which boasts a trademark sultry vocal delivery and killer chorus hook.
The single is accompanied by a music video drowned in gritty excesses and an unfiltered look at the glamor of a gentleman's club. Shot at the infamous Browns strip club in London’s Shoreditch, it’s one of the oldest and most established strip clubs the capital has to offer. Rashelle got her real-life friends to star alongside her in the video and the chemistry is clearly on show.
"I’ve been working the strip clubs for a while and I’m just exposing my experience through my music. The whole club scene has always heavily influenced my music so this song is perfect to showcase the life I live - This is who I am and its why I’m the artist I am today,” Rashelle said, talking about the new single.
Meeting Connie via Instagram, Rashelle explains: “I saw a few of her videos and really liked her lyrics and overall vibe - I thought she would be perfect and put an amazing verse down!”
As a songwriter, published by EMI/Sony-ATV Rashelle has previously written for the likes of Wiley, Eva Simmons and Sneakbo, as well as penning a track for a worldwide Pepsi ad campaign. Her work as a top line writer has led to collaborating with New York super producer Omen, known for his work with Beyonce, Drake and Lil Wayne.
Rashelle’s debut solo release ‘Nod Ya Head’ caught the ear of Pop Justice who championed her online and the track also grabbed the attention of internationally acclaimed producer Levi Lennox (the man behind Zayn Malik’s ‘Pillow Talk’), who has now produced a track off her upcoming EP.
