American rapper Megan Thee Stallion has launched this sultry and cinematic promo, directed by Onda through ProdCo, for her viral track Mamushi (which translates to a small, venomous pit viper), featuring Japanese rapper Yuki Chiba.
The story opens in a traditional Japanese bathhouse, where Onda recreates the 'Heaven on Earth' scene from Rush Hour. Spliced with playfully-choreographed vignettes inspired by the aesthetics of Japanese cinema, Stallion lures a male customer to her watery lair where she transforms into a giant snake and kills him.
Starting in black and white -a nod to the legendary Akira Kurosawa- the film gradually warms to rich, red tones as the man falls under her spell, eventually cooling into blues for a hypnotic dance performed by an army of her dead victims.
