Stormzy & Raye 'The Weekend' by Omar Jones

Rob Ulitski - 21st July 2023

US director Omar Jones makes his UK music video directing debut with an inspired promo for Stormzy featuring Raye. 

Bringing together two artists at the very top of their game, the video blends nostalgic R&B concepts with killer performances and set pieces. 

A focus on inventive camerawork and subtle edit effects gives the video plenty of flair, whilst snapshots of a narrative help give some context to the imagery. 

A perfect summertime collab with plenty of visual appeal.
