Immature/ImX singer and actor Marques Houston (You Got Served, House Party 3, Sister, Sister) just released the lead single “Cowgirl” from his forthcoming LP, The Best Worst Year Ever.
“Cowgirl” incorporates elements from Bobby Brown‘s 1988 hit “Rock Wit’cha” and touches of 1993 smash “Freak Me” by Silk from 1993 into a modern mid-tempo bop that’s already racked up close to 2 million YouTube views:
Jumping on the western wear trend and aesthetic Beyoncé reclaimed earlier this year via Cowboy Carter, in the Chris Stokes-directed video, Houston is dripped in a variety of swaggy boots, hats, vests and jeans, and lays out a line dance that is gaining momentum on TikTok via the #Cowgirldancechallenge.
Fans can look forward to the release of Houston’s new album, The Best Worst Year Ever, which debuts on August 30th.
The album is said to reflect a transformative year for Houston, filled with personal and professional highs and lows. It is set to be a landmark in his career.
