Bahamas native Angelique Sabrina is creating the next big dance craze with her debut video, "Pull Up," which just premiered on MTV.com's Buzzworthy Blog.
Already hailed as "the next Rihanna" by MTV, Angelique shines bright in the new clip, which was shot in Los Angeles and directed by Skee TV (The Game, T. Pain) and Fernando Cordero of Industrial Films (Mr. Big).
The video features Angelique's own unique dance move (which she has coined as the "pull up"), as well as her distinct mix of Pop and R&B with a touch of Caribbean flavor, energy, and style.
At only 14 years old, Angelique already has a strong resume. She's played in front of crowds as big as 20,000, and was declared the winner of Sydney, Australia's top 5 Rising Star Countdown. She's a student of music who started studying piano, guitar, and drums while she was just a child, and is a talented singer, songwriter, actor and dancer.
In the studio, Angelique has garnered attention from the likes of Grammy-award winner Rockwilder, whose credits include Jay-Z, Christina Aguilera, and Destiny's Child.

In her seriously dope "Pull Up" video, Angelique flaunts her status as a triple threat. Not only does she look stunning, but her voice is on point and her dance moves are straight outta "America's Best Dance Crew." As a song, "Pull Up" is about as catchy as it gets -- set to an island-flavored pop beat (think "Pon De Replay" meets "Pon De Floor" meets traditional Bahamian music), Angelique's new tune is not only radio-ready, but also introduces the world to the "Pull Up," a new dance coined by Angelique. Yep, she just balls out like that.
Plot-wise, the video is simple: Angelique roams the beautiful streets of her native Bahamas when suddenly she's transported right into the middle of Hollywood. Angelique spots some of her pals on the street, and naturally they all begin to "Pull Up!" (And extremely well, if I might add.) Angelique and her posse move the party to the beach where the non-alcoholic festivities continue to rage on. We've said it once, and we'll say it again: Watch yo back Rihanna world, Angelique is on the come up.
