JOEY BADA$$ PRESENTS NEW CINEMATIC SHORT FILM FEATURING SERAYAH FOR HIT SINGLE “SHOW ME”

Multiplatinum chart-topping rapper Joey Bada$$, who appeared in the Academy® Award-winning film Distant Strangers, presents an arresting and captivating new short film to accompany his rapidly rising single “Show Me.” The track appears on his unanimously acclaimed third full-length album, 2000, out now. Listen to 2000—HERE.

Directed by Levi Turner and Mccray Sutherlin, the film centers on Joey as he navigates the highs and lows of a romantic relationship with his on-screen lover, played by Serayah [Empire, BMF]. The visual plays out like an emotional rollercoaster set against a backdrop of various Los Angeles locales. Drawing inspiration from the 1997 classic Love Jones, it offers a nuanced look at modern love befitting the track.

2000 represented a critical and creative high watermark for Joey. Among many highlights, 2000 has garnered over 340 million total streams worldwide. In addition, Joey delivered a show-stopping performance of “Show Me” on NBC’s The Tonight Show, Starring Jimmy Fallon. Boasting a stacked guest list with JID, Larry June, Diddy, Capella Gray, and Westside Gunn, it also incited the applause of Rolling Stone and Pitchfork, who observed, “You’ve heard Joey rap like this before, but the scope is plusher, a Bad Boy veneer slathered over corner-bred rhyme schemes.”

Infiltrating culture, he also stars in the STARZ original Power Book III: Kanan and will accompany Wiz Khalifa on his seven-city Good Trip Tour, which ends at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO, on April 22 in celebration of 420.
