The action just gets hotter from there when Azalea — rocking canary yellow hair and a matching yellow and black bikini and leather pants, drops verses from the back of a four-wheeler speeding down a desert highway at night, surrounded by motorcyclists standing up on their seats while popping wheelies and throwing sparks.
“Don’t need dark rooms (I am the strip club)/ Don’t need red lights (I am the strip club)/ I do the lap dance, I ride the pole up/ I am the, the strip club,” she raps on the hook to the J. White Did It-produced the song about what goes on in the dark. The song follows on the heels of a similarly electronic-sounding promo track “Brazil,” the B-side to the rapper’s “Sip It” single from April. According to a release, both “Brazil” and “Strip Club” showcase and tease the electronic influence that pervades the MC’s upcoming third studio album, End of an Era.
Azalaea, who wrote the treatment for the visual she co-directed with Thom Kerr, pulls off yet another surprising moving violation near the end of the clip when she luxuriates in a bubble bath set up inside the trunk of a classic car as it throws off a flood of foam onto the blacktop. Azalea is slated to hit the road this summer with Pitbull on his 32-city I Feel Good Tour.
