Starring Keith D. Robinson and Daphnée Duplaix | Directed by Derek Blanks | Inspired by CBS’s “Beyond The Gates”

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.

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 & Brandy — but with the emotional honesty and aesthetic richness today’s audiences crave. The chemistry betweenRobinson 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.

BEYOND THE GATES is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington, D.C., and in one of the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you’ll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have “made it” and those who haven’t are all trying to navigate life…and some with more grace than others.
