Shakur is ready to heat things up with her new video for her “Play” remix. VIBE spoke with the talented beauty about her new music, as well as other projects she is working on. You’ve surely seen her before, now look out for more of Shakur’s music coming soon.

“I just wanted to give the fans something dope and fresh to look at. Crowley Walnuts which is the director, and I came up with a visual concept, and we shot it. I wanted it to be intimate, sensual, sexy, and simple. And I believe we delivered that. I had to fall back from music and recording because I’ve been so engulfed in other projects. I’ve started off the new year with a bang already. I’m getting ready to film and launch “Los Blancos”, a show that I co-created and star in. I’m getting back in the studio with Grammy award-winning producer Elvis Williams aka Blac Elvis. He did a majority of my production when I was signed to Cee-Lo via Atlantic Records. Everyone thinks that I’m a model turned rapper, when in all actuality, I was a rapper/actress turned model. I had a record deal and was theatrically trained before I ever popped up on the cover of a magazine. People need to do their homework. I’m multi faceted, and am able to execute everything diligently, that I focus my attention on. Yes, I rap, act, model, dance, create, write, executive produce, edit, dp, and the list goes on and on. There’s no reason why I can’t do it all. I like to work productively, and I love what I do. I just want to continue to flourish in my craft.”
