VIDEO: M$NEY FEAT. OMARION – RESTRAINT
Check out the brand new video and song from Starworld’s rising artist M$ney. The track is titled “Restraint” and features Omarion. M$ney is prepping the release of her debut mixtape “Alter-Ego,” also co-starring Omarion. The sultry jam covers that awkward moment when friends of opposite sex have to decide if they should act on that chemistry in a physical way, or how will they deal with it.
I think everyone’s been there at least once… this joint is dope.
