Music news

The song appears on the album ” Hackney Diamonds » recently released by the Rolling Stones.

The Rolling Stones have released a new music video for a song from Hackney Diamonds, their latest studio album. In the new music video for “ Mess It Up “, British actor Nicholas Hoult plays an ex-boyfriend who doesn’t realize what he has until he loses it.

In the clip, directed by Kendrick Lamar and Anderson .Paak collaborator Calmatic, Hoult is emerging from a tumultuous relationship. When he realizes the situation, it is too late. He returns home to find the front door locked, with a young boy on the other side… who ends up knocking him out.

Nicholas Hoult is the second Hollywood star recruited to appear in a Rolling Stones music video this year. In September, the group shared the music video for “ Angry », which featured the actress ofEuphoria and of Anyone But YouSydney Sweeney.

The release of Hackney Diamonds was a real celebration. It’s the first album of original music the band has shared since 2005 and the first since the death of drummer Charlie Watts. “ Mess It Up ” is one of two songs recorded for the album before Watts’ death.

Everything I do is a tribute to Charlie WattsKeith Richards told WECB at the beginning of the year. It’s impossible for me to play anything without automatically thinking that Mr. Watts is setting the beat. »
