MTV premiered the music video for French Montana's "No Shopping" on Friday night, July 29. Fans who tuned in for the network's 7:55 p.m. airing of the visual got first-glance at a fitting representation of what is sure to be a summer smash. The Bad Boy artist brought Drake along to shoot the reel in the tropics with a round of golf, a pool, plenty of women, and a parody reminiscent of a throwback or two involving the likes of Puff and Mase.
Rocking a Dominican flag bandanna and shimmying a "Hotline Bling" dance or two, Drake capitalizes off of having been embraced by the Caribbean demographic for incorporating their cultural stylings in his recent work, but gives reference to French for his impression skills, calling his "fake Spanish" accent "legendary." Considering French comes from the largely Latino Bronx digs that spawned the likes of Jennifer Lopez and the Terror Squad, it probably comes off as easy for him as his laid back delivery does.
"No Shopping" is the third single off of French's sophomore album. While the song has only been in play for close to two weeks, there was a buzz surrounding its release as far back as May, when the internet got hold of a snippet rumored to be a shot at Joe Budden. French has since denied that there was any mention of Budden during the studio session from which the clip was leaked. MC4 is scheduled for release on August 19.
