Shenseea Asake Share Playtime Video

Shenseea and Asake share the official “Playtime” video, the focus track from her Catalyst EP, released on November 6 through Since ’93 and Columbia Records. Filmed in London and directed by Bdot, the visual pairs Kingston dancehall with Lagos Afrobeats in one high-energy frame.

The video arrived on Shenseea’s official YouTube channel the same day as the EP, and it is built as a meeting of two sounds rather than a guest spot. Her dancehall delivery leads the record while Asake answers in his street-pop and Afro-fusion cadence, with amapiano touches running underneath. Watch the official Playtime video below.

What The Playtime Video Delivers

BellaNaija, placing the clip in its new music videos of the week roundup, described the pairing in terms any Toronto dancehall fan will recognize:

The visuals are packed with vibrant colors, fiery dance choreography, and striking fashion styling.

The Hype Magazine’s video report adds the release facts: the video landed on her official channel on November 6, 2026, with the single pushed to playlists the same day. It is the EP’s centrepiece visual, the one the label chose to carry the project.

The Catalyst EP Around It

Catalyst runs eight tracks, and the guest list explains the strategy. Alongside Asake on “Playtime,” Vybz Kartel appears on “Talk To Me Nuh” and Loe Shimmy on “Private,” three fan bases pulled into one short project. It is her first major multi-track release since Never Gets Late Here, her Grammy-nominated album of May 2024, and it connects Kingston, Lagos and Florida in a single tracklist, as the EP coverage at stupidDOPE put it.

Why Playtime Lands In Toronto

Toronto’s Caribbean diaspora is one of the largest outside the Caribbean itself, and dancehall records with this level of international backing do not stay overseas: they move straight into the city’s fetes, clubs and Carnival season rotations. A Shenseea and Asake record, with a London-shot video and a Columbia push behind it, is exactly the class of release the Toronto Caribbean scene adopts early and keeps. “Playtime” is built for that circuit, and the video gives the city’s DJs the visual to run with it.
