Instead of playing chess with death, this life-or-death duel takes place on a basketball court where a young girl faces off against mortality under the judging and fiery eyes of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
It's kind of like a perfect mash-up of the Seventh Seal, Mortal Kombat, Stranger Things and an Air Jordan commerical.
What at first seems like a fun "guess that aspect ratio" video (I guessed: 9x16) turns out to be a way cooler riff on perspective, as we get a surveillance cam motif mixed with a forward rotating visual plain. Dope, indeed, even if you're more of a QVC person. #HGTV
Don't mess with that nightmarish gang of marauding pop-n-lockers who look like the satanic counterpart to Jabbawockeez — unless you happen to be Pusha T or Dennis Rodman, who might actually be the same person.
Are the Feds watching? If so, get the footage and work it into your video... That's the premise for this new Pusha T clip, which mixes surveillance cams with a more traditional performance, and a less traditional dancer.
There's an '80s throwback TV show vibe to this ode to slinging dope, from the old-school cell phone, the gold chains and some cop chases. And Reagan.
PS: I have a feeling that we're going to see more Beats Music video placements than Beats By Dre headphones this year. Anyone want to keep track of them for me?
