Music video

On August 17, 2015, the singer confirmed that the music video for "Blasé" had been shot and will premiere "soon".[4] On September 13, 2015, the music video for "Blasé" was released.[5] The music video features cameo appearances from Tinashe and Dej Loaf and was filmed in Los Angeles and Philadelphia. The video includes footage of Rae Sremmurd in Philadelphia's Chinatown as well as a live performance by Ty Dolla Sign. Ty's energetic live performance featured in the video, as well as the video's intentionally amateur film quality, is inspired by and reminiscent of 1980s hardcore punk shows and specifically the live performances of the band Bad Brains and the filmed performance of the Bad Brains at CBGB in 1982.[1]
