DeJ Loaf is giving fans another reason to revisit her latest album with the release of her new music video for “Into You.” The Detroit rapper and singer has officially unveiled the visual for the record, which appears on her newly released album, Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind.
The project arrived Friday, November 6, marking another major release for DeJ Loaf as she continues developing her sound as an independent artist.

“Into You” is one of the records featured on the album, giving listeners another look at DeJ Loaf’s melodic side. The song fits naturally into the project’s relationship-focused themes as she explores attraction and the excitement of being interested in someone.
The accompanying music video gives the track another opportunity to connect with fans following the album’s arrival. DeJ Loaf has continued balancing her rap delivery with more melodic performances throughout her career, and this latest release highlights that versatility.
The video also helps bring additional attention to Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind during its first week of availability. For longtime supporters, the project represents another opportunity to hear DeJ Loaf explore the musical styles that have helped shape her career.
DeJ Loaf releases ‘Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind’
Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind arrived November 6 and features 15 tracks. The album marks another important chapter for DeJ Loaf as she continues releasing music independently and maintaining creative control over her career.
Throughout the project, DeJ Loaf leans heavily into R&B and melodic singing while still incorporating the rap delivery that helped establish her identity. The Detroit native explores several personal subjects, particularly complicated relationships and the challenges that come with navigating love.
Songs such as “Too Deep,” “Get Back,” “Miss Anonymous” and “True Colors” explore different sides of romantic relationships. She touches on keeping relationships private, building trust, dealing with uncertainty and eventually deciding when it’s time to move forward.
Other records give listeners a more reflective look at her personal experiences. On “Rather Get Money,” she explores the frustrations of an unhappy relationship and the importance of choosing independence. Meanwhile, “Heaven Can Wait” offers a more encouraging perspective about patience and appreciating life.
The album also features “Girl Of Your Dreams,” “Yearning For Us,” “Stay By My Side” and “Got It Bad.”
“Into You” adds another romantic moment to the collection. Its inclusion helps demonstrate the different emotions DeJ Loaf explores throughout the project, making the album more than just a collection of individual singles.
The 15-track format also gives her room to experiment with different sounds and storytelling approaches. Rather than focusing entirely on her earlier rap style, she allows her R&B influences to take a more prominent role.
DeJ Loaf continues her independent music journey
DeJ Loaf has experienced several different stages throughout her career. She first became a household name in hip-hop with the release of her breakout single, “Try Me,” in 2014.
The Detroit rapper gained significant attention for her distinctive delivery, combining melodic vocals with a confident rap approach. “Try Me” became a major breakthrough, reaching No. 45 on the Billboard Hot 100.
She followed that success with another major record, “Back Up,” featuring fellow Detroit rapper Big Sean. The collaboration reached No. 47 on the Billboard Hot 100 and eventually earned platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America.
DeJ Loaf also released her 2015 EP, #AndSeeThatsTheThing, which reached No. 47 on the Billboard 200. The project featured records that helped further establish her as one of the most promising female rappers of that era.
Her early success led to collaborations with several major artists, including Lil Wayne, Future, Kid Ink and Big Sean. However, DeJ Loaf eventually took a different approach to her career after experiencing changes in her former major-label situation.
She ultimately continued releasing music independently, giving herself more creative freedom and control over her projects.
That journey has included releases such as Sell Sole II in 2020 and End of Summer in 2024.
Her latest album, Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind, continues that independent approach while giving fans another opportunity to hear her explore R&B and hip-hop.
DeJ Loaf previously reunited with Jacquees for ‘F**k A Friend Zone 2’
Before releasing Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind, DeJ Loaf also connected with R&B singer Jacquees for their collaborative album, F**k A Friend Zone 2.
The project continued their musical partnership, which initially gained attention through their earlier F**k A Friend Zone release.
Their chemistry has allowed both artists to explore relationship-focused music while combining DeJ Loaf’s melodic rap delivery with Jacquees’ R&B vocals.
The collaboration also highlighted another side of DeJ Loaf’s artistry. Although many fans initially discovered her through hip-hop records such as “Try Me” and “Back Up,” she has consistently demonstrated an interest in R&B.
That musical direction has become increasingly prominent throughout her more recent releases.
With Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind, she takes that approach further by placing her vocals and personal songwriting at the center of a solo project.
The album also gives longtime fans an opportunity to reconnect with her music following several years of independent releases and collaborations.
DeJ Loaf continues representing Detroit
Throughout her career, DeJ Loaf has remained connected to Detroit and its influential hip-hop community.
She emerged during a particularly exciting period for Detroit rap, helping introduce a different sound and approach to mainstream audiences.
Her melodic delivery and distinctive fashion style helped separate her from many of her contemporaries. She also became known for creating records that could connect with both hip-hop and R&B audiences.
Detroit has continued producing major artists, including Big Sean, Eminem, Tee Grizzley, Babyface Ray and 42 Dugg. DeJ Loaf remains an important part of the city’s musical history, particularly among the women who helped expand its influence.
Her latest album demonstrates that she is still interested in developing her sound rather than simply relying on the records that initially made her famous.
The release of the “Into You” music video also gives her another opportunity to promote the project and bring attention to one of its tracks.
