Rae Sremmurd’s latest single, “CLOSE,” may scan like a regular love song at first, but really it’s a song about suffocating from intimacy, being smothered by the affection of someone you’re not ready to commit to (“You cried and said, ‘Look what you made me do’ / It’s not my fault that I don’t wanna end up screwed.” Exhibit Z why Swae Lee is the songbird of his generation). That concept only becomes more clear in the song’s newly-released video, in which Swae, Jxmmi and Travi$ Scott find themselves seduced by the seemingly innocent beauty of a girl only to find out she’s, in fact, a vampire. Damn. Talk about being burned.
Stay tuned for Rae Sremmurd’s new triple-disc album, SR3MM, coming soon.
