Hailing from the frigid North, in a city where you never know whether you will live through the long nights, Lil Durk‘s life has more in common with Game Of Thrones than you might think at first glance. Teaming up with Teyana Taylor to create a diverse and sexy alternate vision of the show’s fantasy realm of Westeros, Lil Durk shares the video for “Home Body Remix.” Clad in furs reminiscent of Jon Snow and bejeweled armor that evokes the Unsullied, Durk takes his horse up the old Kingsroad to a mysterious palace, where he interacts with dozens of masked, scantily clad models, before heading up to the chambers of Queen Teyana. Directed by Teyana Taylor herself, the video is a lavish tribute to the massive HBO hit, complete with dreamlike visuals, intricate and elegant costumes, and a fair helping of eye candy.
When asked about the video Teyana Taylor had this to say, “I strive to make videos that are the complete opposite of what’s expected. The song is sexy – it gives me vintage, almost medieval vibes. I love the passion and lovemaking scenes in medieval, fantasy visuals such as 300, Troy, and Game of Thrones so they became my mood board. I watched a favorite scene from 300 on mute but with the ‘Home Body Remix’ song playing in the background and doing that confirmed everything. Durk was super receptive to the idea and went with the flow. He trusted my vision and I couldn’t have asked for things to go more smoothly.”
