New York-based soul singer-songwriter Nick Hakim is releasing his much anticipated debut LP this spring, titled Green Twins.
The album is a follow up to his 2014 two-part debut EP, Where Will We Go, and now Hakim has released the first official video for the forthcoming album for “Bet She Looks Like You,” a track with a lovely chorus that centers around the lyrics “If there’s a God/I wonder what she looks like/I bet she looks like you.” Filmed at The Kymberle Project in Brooklyn, and directed by Terence Nance, the video features Hakim, a nativity scene and three generations of black women dressed in green.
As Hakim explained in a press release:
“It’s a music video that illustrates the scientific fact that God looks like Naima. Terence and I have been working together for a while now, we’ve made some music too. He’s like a brother.”
Incase you were wondering, Naima is the beautiful main woman in the video.
Watch the video for “Bet She Looks Like You” above.
