"Holy Blindfold" is a song by American singer Chris Brown, released on June 13, 2025. It was produced by the Monsters & Strangerz, Jon Bellion and Tenroc.
Chris Brown first teased the song in May 2025, after he was released from jail in the United Kingdom. [1] On June 5, 2025, he announced the release date and teased the song on social media with a visual of him emerging from a swirling portal and walking in slow motion to a microphone. [2]
The song finds Brown crooning about his intense love toward a woman, [1] [3] and wanting her to be his solace, [4] over dreamy production. [3] [4]
Bryson "Boom" Paul of HotNewHipHop wrote of the song, "It feels like a reset—romantic, cinematic, and sincere. It blends rich vocals with emotional clarity, spotlighting Brown's growth as both artist and storyteller." [3]
Brown released the official music video for "Holy Blindfold" on July 30, 2025, directed by his tour photographer, Travis Colbert. The video arrived alongside the launch of Brown's North American Breezy Bowl XX Tour, which started in Miami on July 30, 2025. [5]
The music video for "Holy Blindfold" presents a narrative in which Brown is guided blindfolded through various settings by an angelic woman. The two communicate through expressive and fluid dance movements, demonstrating an unspoken trust and connection. Despite his lack of sight, the video illustrates love in its most elemental form—something felt rather than seen. According to Rated R&B , the video features Brown's signature high-energy choreography, adding a cinematic quality that complements the song's emotive tone. [6] In the music video, Brown dances through three distinct settings. He begins by spinning across the marble floors of an empty mansion, then glides through misty garden paths, and finally takes center stage in a floodlit, empty stadium. A mysterious winged figure appears in each scene, disappearing at the video's conclusion when Brown removes his blindfold. [7]
