This one is for all you fans of silly green screen videos — especially the ones where you get to see a little green, in addition to the outlandish scenes. (note: It's also fans of cereal.)
Syndrome, directors: "What would it be like if you could see what Action Bronson saw in his head while he stood in front of a green screen? That was the basis for this video's concept. The end result is a single take set up that we blocked out with Bronson and our crew to capture him literally Actin' Crazy on set. It was important to capture everything; mistakes and all. Just as long as it was real. We ended up only shooting this sequence twice. We used the first take because it was so pure and there was nothing for Bronson to compare it to. We noticed during the second take that he was trying too hard and we lost the realness of the moments. Our scheduled 14 hour day was wrapped in 2 hours. In the end we rolled the dice on a silly idea but with trust from Bronson and his team we were able to bring it to fruition."
Detroit Vs. Everybody seems like more than a rallying cry and more than just the latest collabo track from local legend Eminem and crew. And, indeed, it's also an apparel brand that's blowing up out of motor city thanks to high profile looks like this clip.
Not many bands can go from sampling Suzanne Vega to sampling Motley Crue, but so it goes with pop crossover stars Fall Out Boy. In keeping with the schismatic song title, the video has an American boy intrigued by ballerina beauty, even as she fights back at some uglier elements...

In which our fighter learns that he can't summon his full power until he's pushed back against the wall... Eminem returns with this inspirational look back at overcoming his own odds while the video shows a similar story with a boxer.
PS: You weren't expecting the notoriously camerashy Sia to appear in this video, did you? Her wig is donned here by the distinctive model Chantelle Brown-Young aka Winnie Harlow, who has the skin condition vitiligo.
Sometimes you need to push your lover away to realize that you've indeed fallen in love. And ideally the "push" in question doesn't involve a multiple story plummet to the ground below — unless, you happen to be very fast and can make a saving catch.
Tiara Thomas is serious when she says she ain't after your money — unless you happen to own a bank, in which case you're screwed, or if you happen to have the misfortune of getting in the way of her latest robbery. Despite the guns and the masks and the malice, "One Night" is decidedly stylish and works like a charm, largely thanks to how the visual bounce off the lyrics in an unexpected way.
Do you really need me to tell you that the new Slipknot video is distubing? Or that it's awesome?
It is.

Director Tim Nackashi says this is "It's a Kabuki-inspired tone-piece about travel, longing, seasons changing" which sounds about right for this lovely mix of projections and kaleidoscopic effects.
