Watch V Empress’ “Pistol Down” Video
V Empress, New York City based Pop and R&B singer, kicks off the summer with a bang…or rather “bang! bang!” an electrifying line she repeats throughout her newly released song and music video; Pistol Down. The track and video is the first of four; Guilty, Lies and Bentley Rides, and Never Gets Old (NGO,) set to be released on July 1st, in her highly anticipated debut EP; Can’t Tame a Savage.
Inspired by Kid Ink and Dj Mustard’s production of Summer in the Winter, V Empress set out to achieve her own [female] fusion of hot club oriented hip hop beats paired with very catchy, sexy and complex lyrics. Her track Guilty describes her desire to partake in a three-some, and ultimately encourages listeners to kick off their summer by unleashing all off their deep inner desires. V Empress states “I want to be as raw, honest, and transparent as possible when writing my lyrics and creating my art,” and aims to “promote female empowerment and expression.” V Empress’ bold, honest lyrics can also be identified in her songs; Lies & Bentley Rides and Never Gets Old (NGO). Her lyrics disclose intimate details and feelings about her turbulent long-term relationship with the popular Youtube personality Coby Persin. It is, however, her track Pistol Down, that really transforms her EP, Can’t Tame a Savage, into a genuinely impressive summer banger. Her electrifying vocal overlays, and exciting lyrics are extremely catchy, dope to party to, and will surely leave listeners singing the song back all day.
