Diddy‘s latest project, the September 15-released ‘Love Album,’ came as his first in 17 years and – if the critical acclaim showered on the project is any indication – it was worth the wait.
A 24-track affair assembling some of the biggest names in music including Mary J. Blige, The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, Summer Walker, 21 Savage, H.E.R., Jazmine Sullivan, and many more, the LP debuted at #19 on the Billboard 200 and continued his streak of top 20 placements for studio efforts (stemming all the way back to his first album – 1997’s ‘No Way Out‘).
Among the star-studded songs is the standout ‘Closer to God’ featuring Teyana Taylor.
“I’ll be ya future baby mama, teacher, lover, friend/ While I’m all of the above, you know I can’t pretend/ I’ll be your lioness, I’ll post up in your den/ I, sing it, bae/ Oh-oh, oh, I/ I get closer to God when I’m with you,” Taylor croons on the tune.
Granted an accompanying music video, the futuristic music clip – which arrived Thursday (October 12) – was directed by Teyana and sees the two portray passionate lovers who can’t seem to find each other over an unforgiving desert.
“Teyana is not just an incredible artist, she’s my sister,” said Diddy in a press release. “She has this undeniable force and raw emotion she brings to every project. When we began conceptualizing ‘Closer to God,’ her name was at the forefront of my mind. I had to convince her to come out of retirement, but I knew she would perfectly capture the spiritual essence and depth of the song.”
See the magic they created together inside.
