Daveand Burna Boyshare the music video for their popular collaboration "Location," a standout from the British-Nigerian rappers's critically-acclaimed debut album Psychodrama, which dropped in March.

Dave is in full celebration mode in the self-directed music video, which features cameos from Stormzy, Michael Dapaah and a newly freed J Hus. Burna Boy gives an energetic performance, joining Dave and a group of friends at well-lit outdoor party.


The video brings to life a tweet that Dave shared earlier this year, upon the release of his album. The tweet is also the opening clip of the music video. "Picture the scenes," he wrote. "You're drunk in Ibiza. It's merky festival and you've had a couple cocktails, Hus is free, location is playing, Girls are smiling at you. What a 2019."

Dave recently performed a memorable set at Glastonsbury 2019, where he graciously let a 15-year-old fan take center stage and perform the lyrics to his song "Thiago Silva." Back in April, Burna Boy brought out the artist to perform "My Location" during his historic, sold-out show at the Apollo Theatre in NYC. Burna is set to drop his forthcoming album African Giant on July 26.

It looks like both artists are having a stellar 2019, and we're looking forward to what else they have in store. For now, check out the music video for "Location" below.
