Blood Orange, znany też jako Dev Hynes, przygotował i opublikował klip do singla “Better Than Me”.
W piosence wspiera muzyka zaprzyjaźniona wokalistka, czyli Carly Rae Jepsen.
W wideo widzimy ludzi – w tym Hynesa – tańczących w studiu. Pojawia się tam też Kanadyjka. Z efektem można zapoznać się poniżej. Za reżyserię – tak jak w przypadku poprzednich teledysków “I Know” i “Augustine” – odpowiada sam Hynes.
“Better Than Me” promuje najnowszy album Blood Orange, “Freetown Sound”, który ukazał się w lipcu 2016 roku nakładem Domino Records.
Ostatni longplay Carly Rae Jepsen, “E.Mo.Tion”, miał premierę w czerwcu 2015 roku. W pracy nad materiałem autorkę hitu “Call Me Maybe” wspierał właśnie Hynes.

Tekst piosenki
Blood Orange – Better Than Me
[Intro: Dev Hynes]
Ninety-nine percent, I know you’re not fine
Now everyone could be mistakenly kind
Niggas in the back tryna act blind
Several ways to think about your eyesight
[Chorus: Dev Hynes + Carly Rae Jepsen]
Say what you will, what you want
Know it’s not the time that you can
Receiving a gift of change with a kiss
Not too long and not too bored and can’t resist or miss
The chance of being who they think, they think you are
How long before your journey ??
Walls inside of me that then tell me to breathe
They shake your hand and thank the man for just letting it be
Know my worth and fake the blame
But I know she’s better than me
Wait your turn and change your ways
But I know he’s better than me
Why choose love when hate comes first?
And I know they’re better than me
Wait your turn and change your ways
But I know he’s better than me
[Carly Rae Jepsen]
Ninety-nine percent, I know you’re not fine
Now everyone could be mistakenly kind
[Chorus: Carly Rae Jepsen + Dev Hynes]
Say what you will, what you want
Know it’s not the time that you can
Receiving a gift of change with a kiss
Not too long and not too bored and can’t resist or miss
The chance of being who they think, they think you are
How long before your journey ??
Walls inside of me that then tell me to breathe
They shake your hand and thank the man for just letting it be
[Chorus: Dev Hynes + Carly Rae Jepsen+ Starchild]
Know my worth and fake the blame
But I know she’s better than me
Wait your turn and change your ways
But I know he’s better than me
Why choose love when hate comes first?
And I know they’re better than me
Wait your turn and change your ways
But I know he’s better than me
[Outro: Dev Hynes + Carly Rae Jepsen]
I know he’s better than me
And I know and I know and I know
I know he’s better than me
