In this age of hookup culture, it’s easy to slide into a couple DM’s or hop on Tinder real quick to get yourself a date for the night. But what if you want something real or organic? It’s a rarity today to find the type of love that fully encompasses your thoughts. In the music video for Donte Thomas’ song “Magenta,” his homegirl, Scooty, helps him find some women with a little more substance than your average IG thotties.
The beat kicks in at 30mph allowing you to cruise along while Donte sings the hook. “Okay, you like that, girl? Well, yeah, I like that too.” He taps into that floaty, flirty, first-time feeling you get when you’re seeing somebody new and you really like them.
Then his homie, Caleborate, pops up on the Facetime and starts spitting about that kind of romance where you ain’t afraid to reassure them that you’ve been thinking about them too. He says, “I got my own steez, my own needs, my own trees, I blow weed, won’t blow these chances I get to straight advance and play it fast.”
From the verses to the visuals and Scooty’s harmonies, the whole package is a bop. The entire album that features this track, Colors, is also just all around bangin’. Mos’ D-e-f-initely something you should throw into your heavy rotation.
