The internet is going wild over Drake dancing in a Mexican soccer jersey
Rappers Future and Drake are showing Mexico some love in their latest music video Used to This.
“Mexicano, I’m working like a Mexicano,” Future sings in the opening verses of the song as two soccer teams of voluptuous models in Mexico jerseys and booty shorts stretch suggestively on the field. Yes, it’s sexist, like most rap productions. But the filmmaker behind the video says Future and Drake are simply trying to promote a message of unity in a time of divisiveness.
“Drake and Future had the idea of promoting the Mexican Soccer team in the video,” says Eif Rivera, the Puerto Rican filmmaker who directed the music video. “Lyrics in the song mention Mexico and it was a great way to show the Mexican people love by creating this visual that will be seen by millions of people across the world but most importantly the people of Mexico.”
“The message is to have fun. Show love. Have a good time,” he told Fusion in an email.
