Dominic Fike drops two music videos for '3 Nights'.

You’ve probably heard his very catchy song ‘3 Nights’ on repeat already, and now Dominic Fike has dropped not one, but two different music videos for the song.

One of the videos sees Fike tease a new song at the very end, and the other sees him team up with Brockhampton’s Kevin Abstract on directorial duties, with Ashlan Grey and Henock Sileshi on shooting and editing/colouring. Plus it sees Fike do some semi-successful backflips.

Kevin Abstract gives taster of new solo music.

After first releasing what seemed like a trailer for upcoming solo music, Kevin Abstract has dropped a new 47-second clip which gives a taster of what that new music might sound like.

Opening with the line, ‘Teach me empathy’ (the word Empathy is also his Instagram bio currently, making fans guess that as the title of a song), and ending with ‘ARIZONA baby’, and the brief clip sees Abstract climbing a ladder in a white singlet, while he raps reflecting on his childhood and growing up.
