J-Cole "Power Trip" (Mike Piscitelli, dir.) [NSFW]

Director Mike Piscitelli ensures you won't hear this new J. Cole single as just another love song, delivering a dark meditative tale set back in the rapper's Fayetteville, NC hometown. The basic set-up is a love triangle of sorts, involving Miguel and a beautiful woman, but J-Cole's solution is probably closer to what you'd expect in a Sopranos episode than in a video for a critically and commercially acclaimed hip-hop star.

PS: I hate to call this video NSFW because it features some nudity, but it's apparently my online duty to warn you. Odd how that, and not murder, is considered inappropriate for the workplace.
