  8. Celebrity CSI

    Creative? This video is worse than Jhud’s honeybee outfit. lol..

    Let’s stick to the 1st version or perhaps the 4th installment will be the charm.

    Love ya Yeezy but nunh unhn lol..

  9. Ms Cinnamon 08

    Okay I want to say something about the second one before I look at the third one, I really didn’t understand the” Let’s look at the white broad do her thang all day long and then get mugged on the subway at night, I was confused??? Stay tuned for my thoughts on the third one…..

  10. Sug mo

    I like it better than the other to videos.

  11. george bush don't care bout us...this is why

    the first one was so hot…idk why he keeps making more…nothing will trump that one. it inspired me…lol be VERY afraid ya’ll…..

  12. BIG D

    this is much more creative than the other jointz – tired of ass and diamonds..


  13. Yea,,, I love Kanye 2 DEATH!! But the first video ((I think)) where the chick gets out the car & sets a fur coat on fire or what have u,,, that was dumb, I wasn’t feeling that. He was too creative for that, & the song is really hypnotic so,,,,, can’t wait 2 see what the other ones reflect! GO KANYE!!

  14. NY2CaliLvn

    thats WHOA !

  15. dayg715

    crap. kanye west is a self absorbed, condescending prick. his shit is not all that. but of course black people think it is.


  16. Ok,,,, just saw the other one,,,,I’M SCARED! LOL I don’t know Yeezy,,, I don’t get it! But it’s creative! Yo Kanye,,,, time 2 do a movie son!!! LOL

  17. I'm Just Me

    I actually likethe 2nd one best. I don’t know why.

    but on another note: Kanye Baby, you know I love you, but you are going to develop a serious case of FRANKFURTER NECK WHEN YOU GET OLDER….I see it already.


  18. This is the second post I’ve been on where someone has brought race n2 hip-hop!! OMG,,, I’M FINNA GO CRAZY!!! Kanye probably has more fans from other cultures & races than he do blacks ya mean!!! GET OUTA HERRE!!!! Some black folk scared he’s gone lose his mind, some think he’s to egotistical, & some are genuine fans like I. WTF does race have 2 do with anything. I’m so sick of it being brought up WTH does black folk thinking Kanye is talented have anything 2 do w/his new video,,, puhleeze explain yourself,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,DAYG715???!!!!!!

  19. Aunt Viv

    I’m on the fence about this video. It reminded me of a campy horror flick.

  20. NY2CaliLvn

    um gettin really tired of folks not tying the lyrics to their video damn this video is lacking my desire to see a 4th

  21. dayg715

    that’s why vince gill punked his closet-queen ass at the grammys back in february.

  22. icecream08

    my nigga Ye…i have to say that is the best version of them all….that shit was hot..thats y i love that man..he is so creative and he thinks outside the box…but i kno nigga won’t and don’t respect his craft..because it’s not TYPICAL hip hop…but THAT SHIT WAS HOT..GET EM YEEZY!!

  23. dayg715

    @ key-cyra

    black people are stupid. that’s why they think knaye is this amazing, prolific artist. please. SMH.

  24. dayg715

    kanye

  25. Da R

    black, white, orange, green, whatever. kanye sucks no matter what race listens to him.

  26. chosenone

    artsy. I’m bumpin kanye tracks in my car everyday, I think he is one of the hottest out there at the moment…. but… um …well I have got a MA and I thought I was at least a lil bit smart, but I honestly admit that this video went over my head.


  27. So,,,,if u don’t like Kanye,,, why are you even on this post dude!!! Ur a lame,,,thats why your saying stupid comments behind the gravatar! I don’t associate myself w/LAMEZ,,,,,, K.I.M!


  28. @ DAYG715 AND,,,,,, Ur the one who said he was amazing & prolific LOL! GTF outa here LAME!!!

  29. Ms.Brilly

    not feeling videos 1, 2, OR 3. Just because it’s creative doesn’t make it good. Maybe the next video will be better…?

  30. Comisky Kid

    oh my god are you ppl that slow to not get the 1st and 2nd video? The song (first off) the song is about Kanye cheating and he gets busted by the paps. So the first one is Kanye getting stuffed in the trunk of the car on some waiting to exhale shit. And the second video is a model chick waking up smoking a cigarette, making a mimosa, drinking coffee, still hung over from last night while eating a a heavily buttered egg WTF. Now the third video is too simple… He was re-creating luv 2 luv u by Timbaland & Magoo lol. Naw but that was a lil off.

    P.S. Fuck what ya’ll saying about JHud outfit bet you would still hit.


  31. Black people are stupid? Funny but are you running for the democratic party!!!!!! Wake up it’s 2008. I hope you don’t teach your kids that kind of ignorance.

  32. Qt

    kanye, sit your corny azz down .. and stop playing with the later dr.west’s money cause obviously you just lost it

  33. Jp

    @Key~Cyra I have learned that some people just come on here to stir up some bull, they dont get enough attention in the outside world so they come on here saying anything just to get people to notice them…what i do is not even respond…that way they are not getting the attention they always crave.

    @ kanyes vid- i think it was..different…didnt see how it really pretained to the song…but he is always pushing the envelope…I see you yeezy…

  34. Suckmybritt

    @ dayg715 and all the other assholes online

    Why can’t we just discuss Kanye West’s video? Why do you have to demean a race? Anyone can be stupid no matter what their skin color is.

    Anyways, his video was a little creepy at first. I started to enjoy it near the end. The first one is pretty cool. I didn’t expect it too be so gritty.

  35. Saffron

    I like this! Wait a minute…part three?!?!? Where was I when the second version was released?

  36. doc

    Didn’t ‘ye have three versions of “Jesus Walks” too?

  37. juju

  38. VoiceOfReason

    Okay, I got the first video even though it ended early, I actually liked the second video, it seemed to relate more to the song and the concept was rather current. But, what the heck is this BS?

  39. Brook Lynn Chocolate Gyrl

    I liked the 1st video because the girl was putting in justice on his ass. That was for all the women who got cheated on. Man Ilove videos like that and Ashanti’s “Way that I love You.”

  40. Nic

    This video was weird but creative…it reminded me of the game Clue.


  41. Kanye is the man

  42. Brie

    The first one was cool… but they just keep getting worse :/

  43. Bonifant

    I like the first and 3rd one. The 2nd one felt like a Target clothes commercial.

    Big up to the young black runway and editorial model Sessilee Lopez looking great in the vid.(I wish she was featured more)

    There can be more than 1 black model on top at a time!

  44. TrueD

    This video did nothing to keep my attention. No, it’s not your typical video with club scenes, girls and what not. But what the heck IS IT? It’s a reason for me to just listen to the music. I don’t need a video to like the music (thank goodness in this case).

  45. Alex

    Where are the BLACK girls?


  46. Whack kanye what the h3ll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  47. casper

    I have viewed many hooott videos and photos at~~~((((~~I n t i m a t e m i n g l e. c o m~~~))))~~where many fans are together, also i’v meet kinds of black and white single men who are hunger for true love online :)

  48. We Broke Here...First

    BP, are you guys in love with Ye’?

  49. TL

    U guys act like Kanye hasnt dont this before

    Jesus Walks- 3 videos

    Heard em Say- 2 Videos (black and white cartoon and bum in furniture store)

    Flashing Lights- 3 videos…

    hes been doing this…he writes hits and since he is Def Jam/Rocafella’s #1 guy right now..he can pull whatever budget he wants for however many videos..i think what was hot about all 3 is that they are completely different and if they make sense to the artist then thats what matters….

  50. doc

    The videos are cool and all, but does this means we’re gonna have to listen to Kanye throw another tantrum if he doesn’t win video of the year?

  51. X

    @ Big D

    I’m with you. I’m tired of ass and diamonds (don’t forget cars and designer gear) too. But this video is not deep, nor is it artistic. The first one stood out. Even though there was plenty T&A on display, it was different. Simple, yet powerful. However, Kanye will look back on this bull shit with tremendous regret. He is diluting his art. I don’t know where he is going, but he is not evolving, he is just getting silly.

  52. spinner22

    Me too i get tired of azz diamonds stacks of dough and fancy cars dont get me wrong i do like some but it does get repetive

    Love the video it make you think and I couldnt wait to see what the next frame was bringing


  53. this was fuckin weird.

  54. K-ten

    yeah, im not feeling either one of the three, but i dont think kanye is all that creative if two law suits were filed on him concerning him stealing images and music of people before him.

  55. LB

    This isn’t anything new. Kanye had 3 versions of the “Jesus Walks” video, too. The only difference was that THEY were all good, these videos, on the other hand, are… I don’t even know what to call them…..

  56. Kam

    Obviously Kanye is bored and has money to blow.

  57. Sweetsable

    Ok…I get the first two; but the third has me stumped.

  58. kily

    Would love to know how to make more money?… do you love to try something new? most of these guys just enjoy themselves there… multiraciallove.com you will be surprised

  59. as seen on t.v.

    at least he is trying to be creative…i can appreciate the fact that he/director is thinking outside the box and not doing the typical rap videos….so i can give him an A for effort….

  60. Kreem

    I feel like Kanye is trying too hard but I give him credit for always trying to be original, not that he always achieves it. The song itself is really amazing. But he needs to hire a real director, someone who create a storyline that actually matches the premise of the song. Morbid stuff like getting killed by a big booty chick or this new one where everyone is dead or the second video where the girl gets attacked, come on, none of that matches the idea of the song. I know that he can do better. That’s all.

  61. ~*~IslandNik~*~

    the video is in no way relevant to the song..


  62. lol why does he keep on doin this?

  63. Map

    Ummmmmmm, okay. I’ll stick with the 1st version.


  64. The boy is in the middle of a mental breakdown! Somebody needs to help him…I see trouble coming!

  65. scooblov

    For real, I think Kanye is trying to transcend hip hop. I mean, his beats, his fashion shopping trips to Europe, his videos. He is trying to be very artful in his cinematography. You ever been to his blog page? He has, like, two videos for every song. Some are good and some are, straight up puzzling! But, I hope he don’t stop. What makes hip hop great today is, like, there are those few artist that are NOT following the trend of thug music and life style. The game needs MORE independent thinkers that do they own thing and not ‘Pac’s thing and not 50’s thing.

  66. Tracie

    I think he is very creative but what mentally challenged person isn’t?
