Watch CRi's Stunning New Vid "Why I Love You" Shot In Havana, Cuba

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

From one Montreal based artist to the next, let’s check in with producer CRi with this beautiful new video “Why I Love You.” However, CRi didn’t shoot this visual in his homeland, these stunning visuals were crafted in Havana, Cuba. The song features CRi’s live bandmates Ouri & Odile Myrtil. The video was directed by Romain F. Dubois, who had this to say about it:

I wanted to show the lightheartedness of solitude... Creating a bubble around a character, a peaceful moment in Havana.
