Well, the video for the club anthem from Jay-Z and Kanye West finally has finally arrived. The single from the rap duo’s ‘Watch The Throne’ album has taken the world by storm, or at least mine, and we finally have a chance to watch the two in action. Giving off a kind of kaleidoscope vibe, with some flashing lights and even cameos from some tigers, it gives you the the feeling of a concert experience except a lot more, well, cray. Check it out!
Just a warning, the video has been identified by Epilepsy Action that it can possibly cause seizures. It also has some offensive language, so take a look at your own risk!
So what’s the verdict? Did you like the video? Were you expecting something a little more from these two?

This song is awesome, in all aspects, and I love the friggin video.
Then again, I love just about everything Kanye does.

I love this song for a choreography (not so much for the video).

The video just like all the other rappers who want to save a few bucks on a music video – they just record the song in concert, add a few more effects, and boom. But because of the names, I’m sure most people will say it’s the best video of all time. I’m also waiting on someone to pop up with more Illuminati references, since they seem to follow Jay-Z like a shadow.
Lyrically, the song didn’t make any sense (N***as in Paris? Really?) Until I found out that it’s supposed to be a subliminal hit at Kanye West’s ex, Amber Rose. Her stripper name before she met Kanye was Paris. Now, I think it’s one of the most hilariously subliminal songs I’ve heard!! Good job, Kanye. LOL

I think I just had a light seizure. I love the song, and the video is not as impressive as it should have been. I’m not a huge fan of live music videos.

Song’s good. I like the concert music video but I’m not feeling the whole kaleidoscope thing.

The lyrics DO make sense. I like how they added extra music tracks
behind the original song, and the video is cool, I think. The
kaleidoscope stuff does make my head spin a little bit though lol.
Jay-Z
and Kayne are rap giants…whether you like rap or not, they are the
kings of what they do. I’ve been listening to them for years now. I
guess it’s hard for some people to appreciate rap because they think
it’s all just a bunch of bells and whistles, but for people like me
who’ve been raised on and listened to rap…it’s great stuff. Obviously
some artists are better than others and some songs suck, but these
two…they’re just incredible. I encourage people who think their music
sucks to listen to some of their earlier albums. These guys are
incredibly creative, and their lyrics mean a lot more than people think.

that was pathetic. Kanye West must suuuck live. They’re just trying to play that “illuminati” rumor as far as much as they can.
pathetic.
