Kicking off what promises to be a monumental era, GRAMMY® Award-winning duo Blaq Tuxedo returns with a brand-new video for “Slide” off their latest album, Should’ve Seen This Coming. The video closely follows the previously shared single “Leeway,” which arrived with a Matthew Thomas-directed video to accompany the new project.
“Slide” showcases Blaq Tuxedo’s ability to bring real, relatable moments to the screen. The video embodies the thrill and anticipation of a night out with friends. From making a liquor store run to cruising through the city in a grey Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon, brothers Darius and Dominique Logan bring the laidback energy of the track to life.
Should’ve Seen This Coming, out now, is a fluid album that’s untethered to genre constraints. Finger-snaps, airy guitar, analog synthesizers, and a thick bass line murmur beneath delicate croons as the duo lean into experimental production. Throughout the LP, Darius and Dominique push creative boundaries, tapping into smooth R&B, sexy drill, and hip-hop. It’s Blaq Tuxedo’s first full-length project in six years and the follow-up to the group’s 2019 self-titled album.
Having already worked with the likes of Doja Cat, Ty Dolla $ign, Omarion and more across their career, Blaq Tuxedo has cemented their position as one of the most sought-after production and songwriting acts. The duo has collaborated with a laundry list of artists to create a myriad of irresistible releases including “Residuals” by Chris Brown, which is featured on the R&B star’s GRAMMY® Award-winning 11:11 (Deluxe) album.
As Blaq Tuxedo continues to craft a sound that’s instantly recognizable, the pair simultaneously reserve some ink in the pen for their own musical endeavors. Should’ve Seen This Coming is a refreshingly textured snapshot of the group’s artistic strengths, featuring some of their most expansive and varied production to date – all bolstered by a newfound determination to defy their own expectations.
