21 Savage And J Cole Show Off The Importance Of Family In 'A Lot'

21 Savage has released the video for "A Lot," the introspective first song from his new album I Am > I Was. J. Cole is here for his verse, which is suspiciously absent from the physical CD version. The same quantity of soul evident in the smooth tune exists here, making us both famished and thankful for family member at the same time.


In a stark departure from his more lavish visuals, "A Lot" keeps things simple. 21 Savage and J. Cole attend a family member gathering complete with fresh home-cooked foods, smiling extended relatives, along with a cute, although slightly imposing, mansion. Nevertheless with large family member comes emotional baggage and we get a peek into what these people carry — from dead companions to incarcerated associates. In the midst of all of this, 21 Savage makes it clear that living in the moment is what's most important.


21 Savage's I Am > I Was became his first album, following 2017’s Issa Album, to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. It sold 131,000 units in its beginning week. Earlier this week, 21 Savage along with a mesmerizing sequin jacket, as a replacement for J. Cole, performed "A Lot" on the The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
