August Alsina & Nicki Minaj Have Awkward Chemistry In "No Love" Remix Music Video
August Alsina has love for two ladies in the music video for “No Love" remix. Yeah, the Best New Artist winner of the 2014 BET Awards actually hesitates in the cinematic visual whether he should keep dating a curly blonde or Nicki Minaj. Would you have that hesitation? Me neither! Her Minajesty all the way!
“No Love" is a track produced by Drumma Boy and The Exclusives that is included on 22-year-old August Alsina’s debut album “Testimony”. The revamped remix version featuring Nicki Minaj isn't part of “Testimony”, though, as it was recorded afterwards. If you want it, then you must go to iTunes to buy it individually.
“No Love" remix music video review
Directed by Benny Boom, the video for “No Love" remix - whose treatment was written by none other than Nicki Minaj - shows August having a simultaneous affair between a cute curly blonde and voluptuous Nicki. After cheating on the “Anaconda” star, and making her go through terrible times of stress and pain, August will buy Nicki’s heart back with a huge flower arrangement and a promise that he’ll be exclusively hers from now on. For real??
The video was a bit of a fail to me. Nicki’s treatment was weak, her acting got me screaming "trying too hard!" out loud many times at my laptop screen, and August and Nicki’s chemistry in the video simply felt very awkward. I don't know...I can deal with the remix but the music video is going to be one-time-watch thing to me unfortunately.
