Jay-Z & Kanye West ft. Frank Ocean & The-Dream – No Church In The Wild (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on May 31st, 2012 by Hyphen

Jay and Yeezy are so big, they can’t even get booked for their own music videos these days.  At least the fantastic director, Romain Gavras, took a break from making incredible visuals to wack M.I.A. songs to do a clip for a great record.  Dopeness.

That said, his best video is still Justice’s “Stress.”  Insane:

Super fresh web promo for a new Adidas line, shot by one of Kanye’s favorite directors, Nabil Elderkin.  Reminiscent of one of Nabil’s best videos:

Wale ft. Lady GaGa – Chillin (video) + Family Affair (video)

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

The long awaited visuals for Wale’s lead single have finally leaked and I think the clip came out pretty nice.  Definitely crisp and I dig the track, though the blatant M.I.A. swagger jacking from GaGa’s hook still seems a little weird to me.  I’m sure Cool & Dre or someone ran it by M.I.A., but I’d be curious to hear what she feels about the hook.

Anyway, hopefully this single will catch on and Wale can join the ranks of Asher, Cudi, and Drake as the only new cats to actually get a crossover hit.  One of my old workplaces, KIIS in LA, has already added it so that’s a great sign.

Here’s another new video from Wale and Rik Cordero for “Family Affair” while we’re at it:

Seattle folks: Wale will be performing at Bumbershoot this year…don’t miss it…
