Wale and Jeremih Rework an R. Kelly Classic into “The Body”

The first single off Wale’s upcoming The Album About Nothing is a classic woman-as-car jam.

September 09, 2014

After hitting a rough patch of publicity, rap's preeminent Seinfeld fan Wale has spent the last year or so head down, soul searching and hard at work -- with Jerry himself! -- on his upcoming fourth solo, The Album About Nothing. But with its release now nearing on the horizon, he's begun to kick the promo into full. Yesterday he delivered the first official single, "The Body," a woman-as-car analogy-packed jam (Pardon if I'm road ragin, but you know you heard my drive is crazy) that features a silky Jeremih-sung hook and a clever interpolation of R. Kelly's "You Remind Me of Something." Stream it below, and then watch his  Album About Nothing trailer all the way at the bottom of this post.
