From his latest album, The Album About Nothing, Wale drops the visual for his sentimental, Jake One-produced single, “The Matrimony,” featuring Usher.
On the smooth tune, Wale flows about concerns about committing in love. “I’ll admit it, let me be hypothetic / The day I find a woman I’ll probably be scared to share her / The idea of me finding love will probably run somebody off,” he flows on the second verse while Usher provides an R&B touch on the hook.
The clip is a continuation of the 2013 video for “Bad,” which chronicles the tumultuous relationship between himself and model Bria Murphy; a wedding takes place as Usher and Wale linger around for the ceremony where Bria is the bride, but who is she REALLY marrying?
The Album About Nothing is available now.
