St. Vincent “Cheerleader” (Video)

February 7th, 2012

Annie Clark has always looked a little delicate, but in the new St. Vincent video for “Cheerleader,” she is extremely fragile. Clark plays a giant, living piece of art on display in a gallery who literally begins to crack when she tries to get away.

Jay-Z & Kanye West “Ni**as In Paris” (Fan Made Video)

February 3rd, 2012

Fan made videos are more often than not, the worst. But every once in a while, a piece of gold is dug up amongst all the sh*t. Tim Laroc has done just that with his video for Jigga & Yeezy’s long overdue single. Okay, knowing they’d have a few millis kicking around to throw towards [...]

Miike Snow “Paddling Out” (Video)

February 3rd, 2012

Words cannot quite explain what exactly happens in this new Miike Snow video, but here goes: some slobbish guy puts on some dancing shoes and is abducted by some kids from outer space. They take him on board their spaceship and undergo some brutal cosmetic surgery. The result is pretty drastic: big nose, black bob, [...]

Drake “Practice” (Video)

February 3rd, 2012

A girl booty-shaking to Drake’s “Practice” in her bedroom. Looks innocent enough, like any other fan-made video. I mean, Drizzy himself posted a message saying, “Submit Yours Today” followed by an email address: practicevideos12@gmail.com. But then a twist happens at the end of it and you’re all, “Man, this isn’t fan-made!” Awesome.
