Never liked the song, and the video is trash. at Jay rapping about the color of his Rolls Royce while people bang out in the streets with police. This shyt looks like somebody seen the trailer for "Dark Knight Rises" and thought "I could do that".

Fred.

BTW, the director Romain Gavras is the same guy who directs most of M.I.A.'s recent videos, like Bad Girls and the one where they were shooting freckled kids in the head.

I can't front on that M.I.A. video though for real

Romain Gavras makes some good videos. I liked this video a lot (and I'm not really a fan of the song).

I agree that it's a little late (other than Syria, the revolutions are pretty much over and the Occupy movement is basically done). But better late than never...

Didn't the Run This Town video cover the same theme?

I don't know why people are mad that Kanye and Jay aren't in the video. Has it come to the point that we're so celebrity obsessed that we can't enjoy a video without a famous person in it? I think they would have ruined the theme of the video by being in it.

 

[REXDALE]

F**k This Video its a long commercial. I was anticipating it 2.

 

[Alexander Wiggin]

the video is not bad, but commin from Kanye West & Jay it's kinda odd, it's like Mickael Jackson doing a stripclub video or Nelly doing a Heal the world video. They are not credible doing that type of ****, plus it's kinda deja vu. I just liked the green lights.

Matter of fact I think the hd nowadays allows directors to be lazy with their video clips by thinking high definition giving a certain cinematic feel to a video we don't have to be original or creative no more

 

[Insensitive]

Because videos are suppose to be a representation of an artist vision. It would be nice to know that they had something to do with their official video, which in this situation is most likely not the case. It's not a huge deal but if they are going to lay claim to something that is suppose to be prolific, which I assume was their intention with this style of video and they can't even make an appearance?

EXACTLY.
It's a representation of the artists vision, they don't NEED to be in the video to say something artistically.

I mean Justice's "Stress" video was dope as fvck and they don't make an appearance at all.

 

[Ready,Willing,Humble]

Thank You.

shyt was wack.

 

[AkaDemiK]

Video had nothing to do with the song besides the title. How the fukk did any of that match Kanye's verse?

They should have made a real video for the song and used elements form the lyrics in the actual video.

It actually reminds me of the 2nd scene in that nas video One mic
( you wanted to be in every last one of my classics) lol
Nas - One Mic - YouTube
