Mike Will’s high powered single gets a video.

Highlighted by Jay Z‘s Magna Carta…Holy Grail album, Pharrell and Timbaland–pioneers of rap, hip-hop, pop and dance production for the past decade-and-a-half–have experienced a resurgence unlike any other, and have returned to the top of the ranks, which is where they’ve resided for the majority of their careers. The only caveat to that, might be the year one Mike Will Made It is having. The “Bandz A Maker Her Dance” producer–who, incidentally, also had a shining moment on the aforementioned Jay Z album–has dabbled in everything from chart-topping R&B (Ciara’s “Body Party”) to infectious club bangers, and now ventures off into the solo world, as his Interscope debut is expected to be out next year, powered by the lead single, “23″. The single couldn’t be more timely, as Miley Cyrus is still quite possibly the most talked about human being in the country, Juicy J just debuted at number 4 on the charts and Wiz Khalifa is, well, Wiz Khalifa the rockstar. Its a recipe that couldn’t quite possibly fail, and with the Chicago Bulls-themed visuals to match the effortlessly fun and engaging single, Mike Will continues his rampage.
