Texas-born R&B diva Beyoncé Knowles has unveiled the new video to her single ‘Party’, which hit shelves on October 24th - watch it embedded below now.
The new video features the now pregnant star living it up in a pool party alongside rapper J Cole while taking turns on the turntables and having a good time. Some of you may be wondering where the singer’s baby bump is – and it turns out that this video was filmed way back in July, and has been kept under wraps since then. J Cole spoke about getting the amazing opportunity to work megastar Beyoncé – and how Andre 3000’s verse was picked over his.
“You know how many verses I did for that song?” Cole asked. “I did a version of that before her album even came out. I did two verses. I love these verses too, but they ended up going with André's verse and André killed it.
“Then Beyoncé reached out to me and she wanted me to get on the remix. I did two more verses. Out of the second set that I did, she picked the first verse. But my second verse, I just gotta say for the record… It was just too long, I think she was looking for something shorter and more to the point.
“It's just a blessing to even be able to work with Beyoncé. I'm on my defensive rapper, like yo man. When you follow in André's 3000's shoes, you're expected to really go in. Just the fact to even be on the song with her and shoot the video with her and just be in her presence.
“She’s such a hard working, incredible artist. I’ll never forget that day we shot the video, I'll never forget being able to be on that song, and hopefully we got more as time goes on.”
