Music based blog THISISRNB posted a few video stills of Drake and Rihanna‘s upcoming music video for their collaborated and Jamie XX-produced track, “Take Care.” The black & white video is under the direction of Yoann Lemoine and will feature “intimate scenes” and “cinematic close-up shot of a bird, bull, and fish moving in artsy rhythm.” We’ll also see a “group of muscular male performers acting out tribal dance scenes.”
Although the official video was filmed last month, the completed clip is expected to drop very soon. Check out more shots after the jump. Thoughts? Continue

As you all may know, Shyne served 9 years in prison for his involvement in the 1999 New York club shooting that injured 3 people. He was rumored to be the fall guy for Diddy (because the mogul was acquitted of all charges) and the shooting played a major role in the ending of Diddy’s relationship with then pop star Jennifer Lopez.
