Revivalist Video: Andy Allo - "People Pleaser"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.Andy Allo-People Pleaser

Just the other day Andy Alloteased us with a 52-second look at her video for "People Pleaser," building anticipation not only for the full-length video, but also for her first project under Prince, Superconductor. "People Pleaser" is a funky, highly charged, and resolutely empowering song, where Andy Allo--backed by the iconic New Power Generation--declare that they're not living to please. The full-length video lives up to the song's energy, with cuts of Andy and the band popping, locking, stankylegging, judo kicking, singing, and laughing all over the place. Those moments of pure fun are juxtaposed with the songstress' powerful and sultry stare into the camera as she over-mouths the words to her song (I never understood people who can't lip synch well).

If this video doesn't excite you, something's wrong (check your heart rate or just turn up the volume). For a more joyous and independent feeling to your day, put this this on your morning routine. If you haven't already, you can purchase "People Pleaser" on iTunes while you wait for Superconductor to drop on November 20. Hit the link below to watch via Revivalist:
