Kris Jenner is featured in video
Grammy Award-winning, global superstar Meghan Trainor may be an actual mother, but she’s proving she embodies the word in more ways than one with her new single and accompanying video “Mother,” out now via Epic Records. The track appears on the new Deluxe Edition of her acclaimed album Takin’ It Back, available everywhere.
Following the success of the global multi-Platinum selling “Made You Look,” Trainor is giving us one of her most iconic videos yet with “Mother.” Not only is Trainor serving ultimate Hollywood glam, she also enlisted mother-of-all-mothers Kris Jenner to star in the video, directed by longtime collaborator Charm LaDonna. The pair glow as they dance and sing along to the doo-wop inspired track, which samples The Chordettes’s 1954 hit, “Mr. Sandman.” “Mother” and the deluxe album come soon after Trainor announced her second pregnancy, proving that even as a busier than ever mama, Trainor is still committed to keeping fans fed.
“I’m beyond excited to finally share ‘Mother’ with the world!” Trainor shares. “This song is my response to being in the industry for almost a decade now and still finding myself in situations where I am talked down to or made to feel like my opinion isn’t valid. It’s for anyone who is in a situation where they feel like they are being mansplained to and want to take their power back.”
Takin’ It Back (Deluxe Edition) includes the album’s original 16 tracks as well as three new tracks – “Mother,” “Grow Up,” and “Special Delivery” featuring Max. The album also includes the remix of “Made You Look” featuring Kim Petras. Meanwhile, smash hit “Made You Look” just clinched No. 1 on the Hot AC, marking her first No. 1 on the chart since 2016. Thus far, it has generated over half-a-billion streams and counting.
