The song is featured on the studio album ” This Is Me… Now » by Jennifer Lopez, recently released.
Jennifer Lopez takes a sharp approach to transparency in the music video for “ Rebound », a song taken from his recent studio album This Is Me… Now. The video is an extended scene from the film This Is Me…Now: A Love Story, directed by Dave Meyers.
“ When you watch my Amazon Original movieThis Is Me…Now: A Love Story, you will see Rebound, and the performance is one of my favoritesLopez wrote on Twitter earlier this week, during a listening session for the album. It’s painful and moving, but the metaphor of the glass house is so impactful and raw. »
In the video, Lopez is literally attached to an abusive partner. Together, they go through ups and downs that always end up hurting one of them, physically and emotionally. But as they struggle in their own glass house, they share translucent walls with other couples enduring the same cycle of abuse.
When Lopez finally manages to escape, she runs through corridors that turn into a maze of indistinguishable destinations. Soon everything shatters and she’s gone for good, stepping on shards of broken glass and leaving a trail of blood in her wake.
According to a press release, “ Rebound was inspired by Ben Affleck, who encouraged his wife, Jennifer Lopez, to write ” on the pain and upheavals of his tumultuous love journey “. The press release continues: “ The video depicts abusive relationships in all their forms, and is the first time she has revealed the truth about her past experiences, with the message of helping others escape similar situations. Love should never hurt. »
In a recent interview with WECB, Lopez explained: “This Is Me…Now, it’s actually accepting who I am. It’s saying: ‘It’s me now! This is who I am and I embrace it fully with all the scars, and the mistakes, and all the amazing accomplishments, the beauty, and all the different things that are me. In this moment, I will accept and love this person. »
