Dancehall artiste Shenseea has released a new song for the ladies, endorsing a fun and glamorous lifestyle with men who bring money to the table. The track, titled V.I.P., dropped with visuals on April 16.
It is produced by DJ MAC and Keno4star, while the music video is directed by Now Or Never Miami. V.I.P. is one of the songs hosted on DJ Mac’s upcoming album Ups & Downs, which is scheduled to drop on April 23. The songs kick off with her expressing that she will not engage in sexual relations without financial support or lavish gifts.
Shenseea brags about her financial status, enjoying the VIP section at parties and flossing. The song, which also consists of sexual lyrics, emphasises her love for money and her importance as well as her body’s value, warning men who can not spoil her with trips and gifts that they should not even approach her.
The music video begins with her getting dolled up with her friends for an event and later having fun in the VIP section. From dancing and having fun in a party bus to dancing with strippers and throwing money at a nightclub.
The song comes on the heels of Shenseea confirming her departure from Interscope Records and her new journey as an independent artiste, which she excitedly said could reignite her passion for music. She had promised fans new music, and this release is garnering mixed responses from listeners.
Some fans across social media have been showing their support, while others point out the song’s first verse matches the flow of Destiny’s Child Independent Woman, which some listeners disliked. On YouTube, the song has amassed over 62,000 views so far. In the comments, one fan expressed, “V.I.P. brings the vibe of Body Good and ShenYeng Anthem, Shenseea. This song is so good.”
Another listener indicated that the song is another banger and applauded DJ MAC for the song’s groovy rhythm by saying, “Another one !!! Hey you, DJ MAC, you have some bloodclaat riddim deh.”
