Topic & Bebe Rexha release ‘Chain My Heart’ video

Global hit amasses over 14 million combined streams in first month of release

Topic and Bebe Rexha take viewers into a shadowy, sexually-charged world in the official video for their hit single, “Chain My Heart.” Jason Lester – who directed the feature film High Resolution and has helmed videos for such artists as Lauv, Julia Michaels and Cautious Clay – unfurls a bold, noirish clip that chases the two artists and a crew of leather-clad dancers through an industrial Los Angeles location, with a nod to 80s videos and action films and a wink to Berlin nightlife.

Since its release via Astralwerks last month, “Chain My Heart” has amassed over 14 million combined global streams. Topic talks about collaborating with Rexha in a recent POPJUICE feature.

“Chain My Heart” comes on the heels of the release of Rexha’s sophomore album Better Mistakes – and Topic’s collaboration with ATB and​A7S, “Your Love (9pm).” The acclaimed producer recently dropped a remix of “You,” giving the Regard + Troye Sivan + Tate McRae single a sultry, summery club vibe. Topic and A7S were nominated for a Billboard Music Award for Top Dance/Electronic Song for their 2020 hit, “Breaking Me,” which has racked up more than 1.7 billion combined streams worldwide.
