Big Sean Releases Video For "Ashley" and Gets Banned from TV [WATCH]

Earlier today, Detroit rapper, Big Sean released a visual for “Ashley” featuring Miguel which is the latest single from his Hall of Fame LP.

In the video Sean is kidnapped, beaten by a female serial killer and even forced to dig his own grave! How crazy is that! This is definitely something different from this Detroit Player.

 Before his fiancee Naya Rivera, Sean was dating a young lady by the name of “Ashley” in whom the song is about. Keep calm; I don’t think the video displays the type of relationship they had…I hope. But I do believe he’s getting in touch with his “creative” side and wanted to show his fans something different. Maybe he's trying to join Naya and get into the field of acting. 

Though the video was released today, it was immediately banned from being aired on television networks. That means you can't vote this video onto 106 & Park or will you see it on MTV. The video contains both violence and nudity. 

VIBE Magazine even said, “Ashley” is definitely the craziest video of Big Sean's career so far.”
