Lola Brooke and French Montana turn up at the “Pit Stop” in the pint-sized Brooklyn MC’s latest video. The titular spot is called “Lola’s Pit Stop” in the video, and while souped-up race cars burn rubber outside, inside, Lola, French, and friends party with some energetic strippers who show off some impressive pole skills. The track finds Lola Brooke goading a male addressee to spend big money at the strip club to prove he’s got it. Meanwhile, French’s verse contains the memorable missive, “Feelin’ like Jerry Jones, man, I hate you n****s.” Topical!

“Just Relax” rapper Lola Brooke has made it abundantly clear that her ideal man is a “roughneck,” but that doesn’t mean they can’t have a soft side. In her new single, “You,” featuring Bryson Tiller, Lola demonstrates how that duality can be achieved alongside its supporting video.
“I’m a badass Brooklyn brown skin b*tch / And I love a hood n**** with some toxic d*ck / Nothing but some socks, he from Bronx in it / Have me walking all crooked in my Crocs and sh*t / B*tch, I go Taraji for my baby boo / Ride it like a Kawasaki, that’s his favorite tour / I’ma swipe his EBT like a Amex / Give it to him raw, no drawers, no latex / Yeah, I got him butt naked for me waitin’ at home (Waitin’ at home),” rapped Lola.
The track, produced by Khris Riddick-Tynes and LilJuMadeDaBeat, pays tribute to fellow Brooklyn native Foxy Brown. The sample of the instrumentation of Eugene Wilde’s 1984 song “Gotta Get You Home Tonight” was at the core of Brown’s 1996 “Get Me Home” featuring Blackstreet. Brooke’s love for the leading rap ladies of her hometown doesn’t stop there.
In the official Samuel McKnight-directed video, two filming sets referenced Lil Kim’s past videos, including her 2000’s “No Matter What They Say” directed by Marcus Raboy, and 1996’s “Not Tonight” directed by Lance ‘Un’ Rivera.
Lola Brooke kicks off ‘GATOR SEASON’ with her latest single, “You,” featuring Bryson Tiller. The track is brought to listeners by Team Eighty Productions and Arista Records.
“You” exudes sultriness and charm, and it comes to life with a sample from rap icon Foxy Brown’s Billboard Hot 100 single “Get Me Home,” featuring R&B group Blackstreet. Produced by Khris Riddick-Tynes and LilJuMadeDaBeat, the reinterpreted sample showcases Lola Brooke’s ability to craft multi-faceted hits that range from energetic, high-octane anthems to soulful melodies with an R&B flair.
Accompanying the release is an official music video that captures the infectious energy of the track. The video takes viewers on a journey leading up to a special red carpet event, where Lola Brooke reigns supreme as paparazzi eagerly await her arrival.
