London Calling: Watch Hollie Cook’s “Body Beat” Video

October 25, 2011

Words by Jesse Serwer

It was only yesterday that we introduced you to Hollie Cook but already she’s caught our attention again. The London-based daughter of Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook, and the self-titled LP she quietly released this summer, have become quite the obsession in our offices. As it turns out, Cook has just dropped a new video for the album’s track “Body Beat.” Playing into her sexy girl next door vibes, the camera follows a jean shorts-clad Cook as she strolls around London’s Portobello Road, stopping to dap up deejay/guest vocalist Horseman and peruse some vinyl. Truly a woman after our hearts, she stops to inspect Junior Delahaye’s Reggae LP, of all records. Musically speaking now, her voice floats smoothly over one of her producer Prince Fatty‘s breezier tracks, an ethereal riddim that blends lovers rock with bubbly synth flourishes. Watch the clip below, but we claim no responsibility for all of the work you’re going to shrug off once you press play.
