SAKIMA shares racy video for "Daddy" (NSFW)

London singer/producer SAKIMA has shared a racy video for "Daddy" off his latest EP, Ricky. The video (premiered via NYLON) is a straight-to-the-punch, expressive release of his unique brand of unfiltered pop-R&B. In his own words, "The video's main purpose serves as an extension of the queer narratives in my recent music, bringing to life some of the lyrics and exploring gay sex in a visual way. There are also some visual metaphors hidden within the video, such as the nosebleed. This represents a desire to express and display my sexuality despite the wounds I carry from homophobic experiences and oppression.

Watch the video and read more of SAKIMA's notes on it below.

"the U.K. pop-R&B star sings about gay sex in a way no other queer musician with a sizable platform does. There's no filter, no generalizing, and no fear." - NYLON

From SAKIMA:
"It was also important for me to show myself bare and expose my body despite any insecurities I have about not fitting into the male beauty standard. I'm not muscley or hairless, and I don't have a jawline for days, but I wanted to get to a mental space where I'm not ashamed of those things and that it makes me more normal than it makes me an outsider. And in doing so, I hope people can watch this video and not feel like their bodies aren't sexy because they don't fit into the gym-jock aesthetic that is often presented as the elite and highest form of beauty."
