Kanye West ft. Mr. Hudson & Kid Cudi – Paranoid (official video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on June 4th, 2009 by Hyphen

Ok, so I like the official version of the video more than the bootleg that leaked, but I dunno…still doesn’t do a ton for me.  Rihanna’s Aneesa meets Cruella de Vil look just isn’t hot to me and the action poses she strikes throughout are kind of cringe-worthy.  I suppose that’s what they were going for.

I do like the nightie lingerie outfit though…I approve of that.  The alternate mix of the song is cool too, though it’s only slightly different than the album version (my current ringtone).

Kanye West ft. Mr. Hudson & Kid Cudi – Paranoid (video)

Yeah, Cudi’s on the hook on this too, along with Hudson…not sure why nobody ever credits him…

Anyway, here’s the long awaited video for Kanye’s “Paranoid,” one of my favorite songs from the past year.  Unfortunately, this video doesn’t really do a lot for me, mainly cause I don’t think Aneesa from the Road Rules/Real World Challenge Rihanna is that hot.  Sue me.  Song is still the JAM though.

Kardinal Offishall ft. Keri Hilson – Numba 1 (Tide Is High) (video)

This is the third incarnation of this song, as the initial leaked version featured the Pussycat Dolls, the album track featured Rihanna, and now the video features Keri Hilson.  To be honest, I can’t really pick one of those over the other, since they all do a decent job.  The best part of this song is clearly Kardi and his energy, and the video does a great job capturing what one of his live shows is like.  Dropping videos like this in October just isn’t fair though.  The weather is starting to get awful and [Biggie] I swear to God sometimes it feels like death Jamaica is callin’ me [/Big].

Huge shout to Kardi and the Black Jays fam, especially for tossing my favorite track off of Not 4 Sale, “Nina,” at the end of the clip.  Video courtesy of OnSmash.
