The video for Trey Songz's first single off of his fourth up-coming album Passion, Pain, and Pleasure has arrived and boy is it a sight to see. The song is called "Bottoms Up" featuring the very animated Nicki Minaj flaunting her blond wig.
The video takes place in some sort of sex-filled fun house Trigga travels through and encounters women in compromising acts of seduction. It's not your typical looking video, so you'll be pleased with what you see.
Trey's take on the video direction via MTV News:
‘Bottoms Up,’ I feel, is a very creative video. [It's] different from the norm, different than what I feel is expected of me and anything I’ve shot for that matter. [Director] Anthony [Mandler] used a lot of different shooting techniques and I think it heightens whatever it is that the song has already. The drive, the vigor, the club anthem, the energy in the record is definitely heightened with this video. It’s as if I’m walking through some kind of funhouse, filled with women and different seductive things.
Nicki Minaj does an excellent job. She comes in and does exactly what I got her on the record for. She comes in and she kills it. I wanted her to make the record different. I wanted her to take it to a different place and that’s exactly what she did. Even in the video, she made a major contribution … from her hair to her outfits to the way she raps and how theatrical she is in her delivery.”
