Toni Braxton Gets Guitar Support From H.E.R. For The Painstaking “Gotta Move On” Video

Toni Braxton unearths a music video for her emotionally-charged single, “Gotta Move On,” featuring R&B star H.E.R.

The Mike Ho-directed visual highlights a woman’s vulnerability following heartbreak, including crying, eating alone at a big table, and more. H.E.R. brings her musicianship to the record and video by strumming an electric guitar, bringing the heart and pain to a climax.

“Gotta Move On” can be found on Braxton’s 10th studio album, Spell My Name, which was released in August 2020.

I kind of wish her dripped some vocals on this track, but nonetheless, it’s great to see a legend and and future legend joint forces!

“I discovered Dounia when she was posting these raw songs that she was creating in her bedroom and her lyrics and the flow of her voice really hit me,” said Skrillex. “We connected and in one day in the studio made this song. She’s one of the few artists who writes off the top of her head- no pen to paper. Very very talented.”

H.E.R. Does “Damage” Control With New Video

R&B songstress H.E.R. reveals the brand new visual for her passion-filled new single, “Damage.”

On the record, which samples the 1980s classic, “Making Love in the Rain” by Herb Alpert, Lisa Keith and Janet Jackson, H.E.R. takes us on a sensual and emotional ride that will surely heighten desires around love or the longing for love. H.E.R.’s delivery is captivating as she pours her soul into warning listeners about the damage that can transpire when your significant other takes you for granted. 

“All night you could be / Tellin’ me lies, makin’ me cry, wastin’ my time / The whole time, so just be / careful what you take for granted / yeah, ’cause with me know you could do damage,” she sings.

H.E.R. brings us closer to the record with the music video which sees her performing on a beautifully set stage, shot at the Roxie Theatre in Los Angeles, while dressed in 80s-inspired clothing.

H.E.R. can do no wrong as she has always been true to her sound and style.

“Damage” follows H.E.R.’s thought-provoking protest anthem “I Can’t Breathe” and her reggae-inspired track, “Do To Me.” Recently, H.E.R. was seen in the studio with legendary songstress Brandy and platinum songwriter and producer Tone Stith.
