Last night Kanye West unveiled his “Black Skinhead” video on his website, only to take it down shortly thereafter. Thanks to the mysterious magic of the internet, however, the clip lives on! Technology!
The video itself is pretty useless, little more than a masked, shirtless CGI/3D Kanye dancing in the dark with some dogs and a 3-foot long dick – no seriously, pay attention at the 2:55 mark, via RapDose. But for the record, Kanye has disavowed this version and claims its not the finished product. Thank goodness.
Update: We’ve removed the unfinished video at Kanye’s request.
As we said in our review, Yeezus is Kanye amplified, an unabashed declaration of sincere artistic expression that’s inevitably indigestible to legions who know what to expect and want no part of it. But for those with a sense of humor, a love of prog-rap and more than a little gas left in the ego-tolerance tank, the soundtrack to Summer 2013 has arrived. Let’s just hope he puts a little more effort into the next video.
