Kanye West feat. Dwele - Flashing Lights (Video) (19. February 2008)

Kanye Wests neues Video zu “Flashing Lights” (feat. Dwele). Co-Regie führte Spike Jonze (”Being John Malkovich”)

Dieses Musikvideo, bei dem es sich nicht um einen Teaser oder ähnliches handelt, hinterlässt viele Fragen bei mir. Ich kann die Message zum Teil deuten, aber nicht komplett.

Kanye West selbst zu dem Video: “Every piece of the video is me, what I represent now,” he said.

Die Protagonistin aus dem Video, Playmate Rita G, verteidigt den Clip:

“This video will go over a lot of people’s heads -and it’s supposed to. I think it’s great that it does. Because Kanye is just on another level; he’s ahead of his time, in a sense. So all the third-graders who come home from school and want to watch videos and snap their fingers and all that, they’re probably gonna think, ‘That video is wack, but that chick got a fat a–.’ And that’s fine. But people in higher positions, they’re gonna see something different. They’re gonna get it, people who are thinkers.”
