TINASHE & G-EAZY "SO MUCH BETTER"

  Tinashe has shared a music video for the G-Eazy-assisted track “So Much Better,” taken from her newest studio album Songs for You. Directed by Mynxii White, the hazy yet sultry visual sees Tinashe dressed in majestic ensembles as she casually examines a Dobermann’s teeth, plays with a snake that’s on her fingers (and later on, across her face) and sets roses on fire. As the songstress glamorously manages to stay calm in these situations, G-Eazy rides in on a Ferrari and watches Tinashe across his headlights. Watch Tinashe and G-Eazy’s “So Much Better” visual above.
