Bria Murphy and Wale have reunited for yet another music video, which appears to be a follow-up to Wale’s 2013 hit “Bad.”
This time, Murphy is a runaway bride who abandons her husband-to-be on their wedding day for an ex who can’t seem to get it together. This video is for the D.C. rapper’s latest track, “Matrimony,” which features Usher Raymond.
If you haven’t heard the single yet, Wale is informing a lover that he’s not currently the man that she needs, but that this is not a reflection of how he feels about her.
Usher sings:
If there’s a question of my heart, you’ve got it
It don’t belong to anyone but you
If there’s a question of my love, you’ve got it
Baby don’t worry, I’ve got plans for you
Baby, I’ve been making plans, oh love
Baby, I’ve been making plans
Baby, I’ve been making plans
Baby, I’ve been making plans for you
Wale raps:
My sincerest apologies, I mean it
I’ll admit it, all being pathetic
I’m in my late 20s still never been to a wedding
Guess the idea of that lobby empty do not sit with me well
It’s not your fault they try to get me, cause I’ma need to sail
Cause I’m selfish and I need you to myself
Tryna see you afloat but don’t wanna see you on sale
Cause I failed and see you bout to cry
Cause when I enter they city they leave without they pride
And I’m sorry, and you starin’ at my comments
Fearin’ it’s gone always be you sharin’ me with all them
Wrong, how dare I say ignore them
Preparing for that day, I leave you here and switch you for them
It’s hard, you know temptation and all
Out here tryna see if my relationship’s strong
Get a place in the charts or runaway from your heart
Gave this music my all, nothing is sacred no more
I’m wrong
But I’m promisin’ you better though
And your friends sayin’ let him go
And we ain’t gettin’ any younger
I can give up now but I can promise you forever though
As you may recall, this is the track where Wale addresses his ex-girlfriend’s miscarriage.
“The girl I was with, we tried for a long time to have a child,” he told Billboard back in April. “And when she finally did [get pregnant], she miscarried at 10 or 11 weeks. I was visualizing my child’s face. We gave it a name and everything. All of that went away.”
