Bobby Newberry’s new single and music video “Freak” with drag star Rhea Litre encourages listeners to be their authentic selves
BY ORLY LYONNE
Freak,” the new single and music video from Bobby Newberry, is a duet with drag star Rhea Litre about the odd beasts we all have inside. In it, the duo encourages listeners to let their inner freak out and let ‘em fly; be authentic and unapologetic in yourself. The song also motivates listeners to dance, sweat and have a fun time. “While ‘Ride’ had that cute ease-your-way-into-a-day-party vibe,” says Newberry, referring to the single he released earlier this summer, “’Freak’ is a full night-out-2am club record!”
The energy of the track is echoed in the accompanying music video, co-directed by Newberry and Beno Anastacio. It showcases Newberry’s dancing prowess in a high-octane clip that features him and Rhea Litre bumping and grinding alongside an all-male cast of dancers.
Newberry wrote the hook and melodies for “Freak” himself and then worked with Litre on her verse. “We had such so much fun in the collaboration. Rhea sings, raps, and talks on the track and she smashes it! ‘Freak’ may just be the ultimate party jam for Halloween!”
The video was shot at the Peppermint Club in LA.
“Freak” is available on Apple Music, Spotify, and all digital platforms. The video is available on YouTube.
