HEARTLESS

So Kanye has a new video. I find this strange because it feels like love lockdown just came out but whatevers. It's interesting. I can see where he drew inspiration from but we'll get to that in a minute. Watch the video first.



Heartless from kwest on Vimeo.

Now as soon as I saw this video and heard the subject matter of the song i instantly thought of Tupac. Still don't get the connection yet? Take a look at this video from way back in 1997.



Also did anybody catch the Andy Warhol reference? For anybody who doesn't know Andy Warhol is a famous artist that drew his inspiration from pop culture. Most known for his painting of Marylin Monroe...



... and Campbell's Tomato Soup



... and the soup makes an appearance in the Kanye Video around 1:41. Take a look again just in case you missed it. So lemme go on record and say I love the video because it gave me something to think about. Even though he's annoying as hell when he starts running his damn mouth I always love Kanye for giving me something to think about.
