Singer/actress and RHOA’s newest cast member Demetria McKinney drops off the video for her newest single, “Trade It All,” from her upcoming EP, Officially Yours.
The video was directed by famed photographer Derek Blanks and features RHOA fellow cast mates Cynthia Bailey and Claudia Jordan. This sultry video also co-stars "America's Next Top Model" Cycle 21 Winner Keith Carlos as McKinney’s love interest.
Co-written by McKinney and The Good Guys and produced by The Good Guys, the song is a smooth ballad that has McKinney questioning the trust in her relationship. "The song is about what we would give up for love. I wanted the video to reflect what is going on in my relationship and my real life which now blurs the line between entertainment and reality. I had to feature my cast mates Cynthia and Claudia because we are genuinely friends on and off the screen," explains Mckinney.
Demetria’s forthcoming EP “Officially Yours,” is scheduled for release later this year.
