It’s Durand Bernarr season, and he’s in full BLOOM on his latest album laden with jams. The project has many cuts that we press repeat on regularly, but the track that’s pon de replay the most since it dropped in February is “Flounce,” a killer collaboration with the duo GAWD. The ladies and gent put on their Sunday best in the song’s recently released visual.
“Flounce” makes us want to do just that and break out on the dance floor whenever we hear it, but the video for the upbeat bop gives more of a garden party kickback vibe. We join the party of three in their fancy ’fits in a backyard filled with lush green grass, tall trees, blossoming flowers, a kiddie pool and decorations strewn about.
Durand fans GAWM members Alana Linsey and Alayna Rodgers with a leaf while the lounging ladies sing the first verse. As the song eases on, so does the trio who serve face, fashion and frolicking to director Vonjovey’s camera.
“Flora and fauna / Show me how you wanna be watered / Flouncing through my garden with ease / Ease, ease, ease / Flora and fauna / We can be the soil for each other / Flouncing through my garden with ease / Ease, ease, ease,” they sing on the infectious first chorus. Later on in the second chorus, when the lyrics change to, “Flora and fauna / Puffing on the good marijuana / Flouncing through my garden with trees (THC) / Need my weed, weed,” it’s evident that a time was had for real.
Let Durand Bernarr and GAWD’s “Flounce” take you higher and for a twirl when you press play on the visual right here. For even more Durand, catch him on his You Gon’ Grow, Too! Tour across North America and Europe starting in May.
