Hey everyone,
In today's blog post I will be reviewing a new single by Love Island star Wes Nelson, who released his debut single back in September of 2020! His newest single is called 'Nice To Meet Ya' in collaboration with Yxng Bane, so here's my review!
At the beginning of the video, the words 'Nice To Meet Ya' were featured on a sign with the word 'SOLD' underneath, hinting that a new house had just been bought for this music video to be shot at. Wes Nelson is seen coming out of a house wearing his bright blue PJ's and slippers, with various items in the background and individuals on the scene. This includes a pair of trainers on a washing line, a postman throwing expensive shoes to Wes, a lady with no emotion on her face mowing the lawn and Wes's hands turning into Edward Scissorhands who is able to create interesting shapes out of trees. He sings the lyrics 'I can be the one, when you want...just come and say my name' which hints that Wes is open to making new friendships and hanging out with people, but they need to get his attention first.
In the video, there are other interesting shots such as when he takes on the role as a golfer inside the house, wearing a white glove and dressing up in a smart attire. There is a transition shot which takes the camera out of the world, showing the Earth with the sign able to be seen outside, and other shots that appear on the screen include many pairs of shoes which seem to be in a freezer, a tiny dog sitting on a sofa surrounded by money, and Yxng Bane who seems to sitting on the edge of the sofa. He sings the words 'I had the nicest time with a vegan' which could suggest he's had bad experienced before, or that he had previously been with people who weren't interested in getting steamy in the bedroom. He adds that if a girl said that she had a man, he would reply 'keep him as well' which could suggest that he's not wanting to meet new girls for relationships, but instead just treat them to a good time and spend lots of money on them, rather than anything emotional or physical.
Yxng Bane also speaks about how he would begin kissing a girl at her feet and make his way up, with both Yxng and Wes singing lots of different brands and companies in the song such as Christian Dior (Jesus), Coca Cola and other brands too. Towards the end of the music video, there were multiple shots of both Wes and Yxng in the spotlight with the rest of the shots in darkness, and we can also see a woman with an afro, standing infront of a picture frame which seems to have a mountain and rainfall, making everyone jealous of the places that we can't go to at the moment!
