Music and lyrics

[edit]

Rolling Stone wrote that "Lips Don't Lie" is a midtempo song featuring a "piano-driven beat beneath smoky vocals from Brooke".[7] Brooke sings about "her lover’s kiss revealing all" while A Boogie wit da Hoodie "tells a different story on his verse, channeling jealousy and hurt feelings".[7] While A Boogie wit da Hoodie does curse in the song, the explicit lyrics were censored in the final version of the song.

Music video

[edit]

The official music video for "Lips Don't Lie" was released alongside the single, on May 24, 2019.[8] The video features Brooke sporting a number of lipstick shades and jewel-encrusted nails, singing the lyrics of the song to a zoomed-in camera; A Boogie wit da Hoodie also appears throughout the video and raps his verse later on. The cover art for the single was taken from a scene in the music video, as Brooke sports the same nails and one of the several lipsticks she wears in the video on the cover.
