PREMIERE: Here's MOONZz's Debut Video for "Satisfy"

The LA-based new kid on the solo block inhabits a smiling 60s housewife before she breaks free, and lets loose.

Last month we premiered MOONZz's debut single "Satisfy" and loved it so much we're dishing up the video for the very same song. Sonically we likened her sound to if "Purity Ring and Banks formed a super group after listening to Blu Cantrell's 'Hit 'Em Up Style (Oops!)' and TNGHT for two months straight," and that still stands, but in this video the LA-based singer is showing off her duality. Turns out she can serve up the sass buttoned up in a twin set, hair tightly coiffed circa 1960-something, as well as when she's crimped, braided, and bedazzled.

Director Nick Andrews calls MOONZz "a truly an alien form, a being blasted to Earth from some far off supernova explosion, and the tricky part of her debut was finding a way to relate her to mere mortals."

He continues: "We placed her in a different time, something antiquated to today's world, but disturbingly similar, a time where women were expected to be pretty and quiet. This will not do for MOONZz, as her true inner-self breaks out, she shatters expectation and barriers to fully realize her power."

MOONZz is rightfully, pretty stoked on this first foray into the world of sound and vision. She reveled in the freedom and her "chance to paint this beautiful, blank canvas that is MOONZz."

She adds: "I wanted to portray the epitomized smiling housewife of the 60s, searching for the man to tickle her fancy. Ironically though, she doesn't 'choose' anyone. Her personality gradually starts showing more aggressively throughout the video: she's outwardly sexual, she craves that attention and when it comes down to it, no one is good enough for her and she's 100 percent happy with that."

Feisty! Boys Beware.
