Rae Sremmurd and Travis Scott transform into vampires for "Close" video.

Rae Sremmurd are gearing up to release their biggest album to date with Sr3mm. The three side project, that'll feature respective solo projects from Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi and a Rae Sremmurd project, has yet to get a release date but they've been dropping some solid tracks off of it that should indicate that they'll dominate the summer, once again. They've already dropped their massive single, "Powerglide" and "T'd Up" from the Rae Sremmurd side and last week, they released the Travis Scott collaboration, "Close." Today, they drop off the official video for the song.

Rae Sremmurd tap Travis Scott for their new video for "Close." They teased the video months a go when they confirmed that Travis Scott would be featured on Sr3mm. "Close" finds the brotherly duo lurking through the night before they end up transforming into vampires. It's another incredible video from them that further builds the hype on what to expect from their highly anticipated third studio album.

While they've released two videos off of the Rae Sremmurd side, Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi have graced us with several solo efforts from their project. Swae's already dropped "Hurt To Look" and "Guatemala" while Jxmmi dropped off "Brxnks Truck" and the Pharell Williams assisted, "Chanel." 

Keep your eyes peeled for more music from Rae Sremmurd and hopefully, we'll get a confirmation on the release date for Sr3mm soon.
