Kevin Gates recently shared some behind the scenes clips with his wife Dreka from a shoot for an upcoming music video. While they teased it previously with some clips of the video itself, these clips are much more wholesome. For example, they show both their excitement over the video shoot and displayed how much fun they had. Moreover, the first video they shared portrayed them reviewing some footage. Following a particular moment (a shot? A transition? We don't know), the Louisiana rapper exclaimed excitedly. "Oh my God!" he screamed at the unknown footage.

Furthermore, other clips included a conversation in what looks like a trailer and waiting in between takes out in the snow. Also, as they cycle through the clips, a short snippet of the song plays in the background. However, previous teases of the song gave a glimpse as to the shoot's results. Moreover, both posted a teaser on Instagram showing a snowy estate and Kevin cooking Dreka... well, breakfast. "Who..I mean..what do you like for #Breakfast," she captioned her post.

Meanwhile, the "2 Phones" MC recently spoke on Kobe Bryant's death and how he felt something was wrong the day he passed. Also, he spit a mini-freestyle in the middle of his tale, which some people raised an eyebrow at. “The crash site [was] seven minutes from my house,” he remarked. “Rest In Peace the Black Mamba. This here going to Virginia, got a hundred keys in a black Honda. All of this was going on at the time. My nana came in. I told my tattoo artist- remember I told you? I said, ‘Man, I don’t feel like we should leave the house today. We just need to stay in today.’ She came right to the house. I hate to even say this, but that’s what happened. She came in the house and was like, ‘They say Kobe just had a helicopter crash.'”

“So you said ‘We shouldn’t leave the house before?” Big Boy asked Gates during the interview. “Before that s**t happened,” Gates replied. “That s**t happened seven minutes from my house. Like, weird s**t like that always be happening to me.” Regardless, stay logged into HNHH for the release of the "Breakfast" music video, check out the BTS clips below, and come back for the latest on Kevin and Dreka Gates.
