Mario himself went through, 'How Could You' breaks it down with an honesty that is hard to ignore.
"I'm talking about how she broke my heart and hurt me. I felt like it was my time to say how I felt about the situation, to ask how could you let somebody lay where I lay? How could you do this to me?"
As for the video, well it pretty much goes hand-in-hand with the song. Directed by Benny Boom, it's full of emotion and reflects the pain of a broken heart. The clip also features Mario's labelmate Cassidy, so keep your eyes peeled!
"The video describes the whole situation that went down with me and the young lady,"
Mario told MTV. "It starts off by one of my friends coming to my car and telling me that he's seen my girl kicking it with some other dude. It surprises me because [I think] we're on a good basis, but obviously she sees something in him that I don't have. Throughout the video, I just show my emotions on how I feel about that."
'How Could You' is in stores October 23. 'Turning Point is available now
