Drake – Laugh Now Cry Later
“Laugh Now Cry Later” ft. Lil Durk is Drake’s first single of his new highly-anticipated album “Certified Lover Boy” and sounds like a sequel of hits from the past like “God’s Plan”.
The music video, shot after-hours at Nike campus in Beaverton, Oregon, shows a multi-talented artist with a great sense of humor and comes along with many memes (e.g. Mohammed Ali’s legendary pool training session), gags, US sports stars and two iconic Mercedes-Maybach concept cars. With millions of views the clip is already a success shortly after release.
LOCAVI implemented the project on behalf of customer Mercedes-Benz.
