The latest music video for megastar Megan Thee Stallion’s worldwide smash song MAMUSHI featuring Yuki Chiba has been released. Starring in the video is Shô Kasamatsu, a well-known Japanese actor from popular TV shows like “Tokyo Vice” and “Gannibal.” The film was shot in Tokyo, Japan. The video, which was conceived and directed by Tokyo-based creative studio PUSH Japan and features Kevin “Onda” Leyva, is a breathtaking example of the merging of culture and cinema.
In the video, Megan turns into a mamushi, a deadly Japanese viper, and teams up with Yuki to fight off gangsters who are breaking into her spa. She then pays homage to Akira Kurosawa’s 1990 film “DREAMS” by conjuring up an army of blue-faced troops using the souls of the gangsters who have passed away.
