DDG Drops His DOPE New Single/Video "If I Want You", Featuring Halle Bailey in the Visual
/
Following a string of successful singles so far this year, DDG the multi-platinum Pontiac, MI rapper has made a strong return with the visuals to his latest seductive single, ‘If I Want You’.
On the track, spacey production echoes with a sparse beat and an effervescent guitar loop. DDG serves up emotionally charged verses and a hypnotic hook underlined by beautiful background vocals and mesmerizing harmonies. The music video is starring none other than his girlfriend Halle Bailey of Chloe x Halle who appears in the accompanying cinematic visual, which depicts their vibe on-screen in a fascinating fashion. It notably paves the way for his anxiously awaited new album, ‘It’s Not Me, It’s You’, coming very soon.
He set the stage for album with “Storyteller.” It has already amassed over 2.1 million Spotify streams and 2.9 million YouTube views on the music video. Right out of the gate, REVOLT noted, “From a musical standpoint, DDG has come a long way,” and UPROXX hailed it as “a romantic-ish single detailing a toxic situation that made him wiser—if not more forthcoming about his own shortcomings.”
“Storyteller” arrived on the heels of his otherworldly banger “Elon Musk” [feat. Gunna]. The latter has impressively generated 32 million Spotify streams and counting and 11 million YouTube views on the music video. Right out of the gate, it earned critical acclaim. Complex observed, “The Pontiac, Michigan native goes back-to-back with Gunna over an ethereal 808-heavy beat,” and UPROXX added, “DDG decides to take his talents to outer space.” Meanwhile, Our Generation Music put it best, “With each passing year he continues to level up his status, bringing along high-profile features and consistently dropping quality music of his own.”
