Braxton’s latest release is a 5 track body of work titled Black Mona Lisa, The milestone project sees Cook reflect on themes of black love and excellence juxtaposed with hard-hitting messages on social justice and police brutality.

He now shares the visuals for the song “Statistics”, a mellow heartfelt track that sees Braxton embodying the spirit of classic 90s R&B with his own unique flare. Underpinned by a smooth and solemn backdrop made up of airy horns, lush guitar richs and solid drum grooves, Braxton delivers a soothing performance ripe with evocative and relatable lyrics that dwell on the essence of love.

The visuals directed by Anthony Doffeck are a moody and warm affair and blend performance shots of Braxton with clips of two lovers basking in each other.
