Actor, singer, and R&B heartthrob Keith D. Robinson returns to the screen with the sultry yet soulful visuals for his latest single Forever Bae, a stirring tribute to real love, emotional vulnerability, and the timeless beauty of commitment. Directed by acclaimed visual storyteller Derek Blanks, the video stars Robinson alongside the captivating Daphnée Duplaix, who plays Keith’s co-star on Beyond The Gates, weaving a cinematic narrative that echoes the passion and devotion of old-school R&B videos with a distinctly millennial twist.
Forever Bae is more than just a song — it’s a visual love letter, inspired by the fictional yet fan-beloved relationship between Ted and Nicole, the star-crossed lovers from the hit CBS soap opera Beyond The Gates. Channeling that deep-rooted romance, the video tells the story of two souls navigating life’s twists and turns, only to discover that true love never fades — it only deepens.
Making its video global premiere on Monday, September 15th, the video is set against a backdrop of warm sunsets, whispered promises, and the quiet intimacy of everyday moments. Forever Bae reimagines the 90’s and early 2000’s R&B video formula — think Jagged Edge, Brian McKnight, Monica and Brandy — but with the emotional honesty and aesthetic richness today’s audiences crave. The chemistry between Robinson and Duplaix is palpable, reflecting the kind of bond that doesn’t need grand gestures to feel epic — just two hearts choosing each other, again and again.
Beyond The Gates cast member Keith D. Robinson’s new music single Forever Bae will be featured on the Tuesday, Sept. 16 episode of the highly rated TV show.
“I wanted to create something that felt like a throwback, but also completely of the now,” says Keith D. Robinson. “Love stories are still being written every day — we just need to show them more. Forever Bae is about celebrating the kind of love that stands the test of time, no matter what.”
Directed with elegance and cinematic flair by Derek Blanks, whose eye for intimate storytelling and rich visual textures has made him a favorite among artists and audiences alike, Forever Bae is poised to become a staple in the canon of modern R&B visuals — heartfelt, relatable, and emotionally resonant, and promises to capture the hearts of fans old and new, especially those who believe in forever.
