<\/div>\n

Ella Mai<\/a> won\u2019t wait around long for her suitor to come around in her new video for \u201cShot Clock.\u201d The song appears on her eponymous debut album<\/a>, which was released last year. The Colin Tilley-directed visual emphasizes the pressing countdown with scenes shot on a basketball court.<\/p>\n

In the clip, Mai strolls a neighborhood, hangs out on bleachers, lounges in a bathtub and takes center court to blithely issue an ultimatum that time is running out on the relationship and she has \u201cabout a hundred things I could be doing right now\/Than wasting my time with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou got 24 seconds, can you beat the shot clock?\u201d she sings, later explaining that she can easily walk away. \u201cI\u2019m a say bye, bye, bye, better know I won\u2019t think twice\/Better let go of your pride.\u201d<\/p>\n

The video follows her previously released \u201cWatchamacallit<\/a>\u201d featuring Chris Brown, her breakout smash \u201cBoo\u2019d Up<\/a>\u201d and \u201cTrip<\/a>.\u201d She performed the latter two singles during her Saturday Night Live<\/em> debut<\/a> in the fall. Mai hits the road in support of her self-titled LP next month. The headlining North American tour<\/a> launches in Vancouver BC at Commodore Ballroom on February 12th and culminates on March 28th at The Aztec Theatre in San Antonio, Texas.<\/p>\n
