Multi-Threat Artist, DJ, Producer Clinton Sparks Releases His Brand New Single and Video “Think About You”
GRAMMY®-nominated artist, producer, songwriter, DJ, personality, and entrepreneur Clinton Sparks has just released his brand new single “Think About You” featuring Marc E. Bassy.
Written by Bassy and GRAMMY-winning songwriter Scott Harris and produced by Sparks, Willie Tafa, and Smithmusix, the song fuses cinematic keys and electronic flourishes with soulful vocals courtesy of Bassy. The production entwines with his unmistakable voice as the track culminates on a hypnotic and hashtaggable hook. A sexy and slick music video accompanies the new track. Directed by Norwegian art collective Broslo and presented by Wanderset, it vividly brings the lyrics to life with a captivating story.
About the song, Clinton commented, “This record came about because I was working with Marc on his album in the studio. We made three records and then he introduced these vocals that needed production. Lyrically, it’s about never being able to really forget or let go of the feelings of a past love. No matter who the other person is who has taken your place, I still can’t help but think about you.”
The new release follows up the successful ICONoclast EP, which boasted features by everyone from Snoop Dogg and T.I. to 2 Chainz and Ty Dolla $ign. “Think About You” proves to be a worthy addition to Clinton’s formidable discography, which exceeds total sales of 18 million albums. He garnered a GRAMMY® Award nod in the category of “Album of the Year” for producing “Bloody Mary” on Lady Gaga’s “Bloody Mary.” Other popular cuts include Akon’s “Sorry, Blame It On Me” and Pitbull’s “Shut It Down” in addition to notable collaborations alongside Beyoncé, Ludacris, Rick Ross, Clipse, The Game, Busta Rhymes, Mike Posner, Bun B, and more. He joined Diddy as the icon’s tour DJ.
Outside of his creative accolades, he stands out as a successful entrepreneur. He founded MixUnit, the world’s largest urban e-commerce store for mixtapes, launched Shade 45 on SiriusXM with Eminem, serves as VP for DASH Radio and correspondent for E! News, and introduced Diddy to Ciroc for whom he also acts as a brand ambassador. Early on, DJ Snake signed him and introduced him to Lady Gaga, which jumpstarted his rapid rise.
