    I’m guessing from the cuts it’s directed by Hype Williams…looks inspired by Dennis Hopper. N have you heard the new Twista/ Ye track it’s robotec n not in a good waaay.

    @Stillfllllly Kanye’s glasses are the flat-top super sunglasses from retrosuperfuture. I’m not sure about Cudi though.

    I’ve liked this song for a while now, I like this video too… the split screen was interesting though id does seem a bit too mellow, but major props to GOOD.

  22. Posted by: Stillfllllly on July 20, 2009 at 7:40 pm

    Im realy liking kanyes flow on this one he brings some quite intelegent lyrics to what is realy a shallow song.

  27. Posted by: boss on July 20, 2009 at 5:21 pm

    i dont like kid cudi much and his songs but SHIT, camron demolished this beat.

  28. Posted by: mike on July 20, 2009 at 4:24 pm

    of course. common is a veteran.

  29. Posted by: Mike I on July 20, 2009 at 4:15 pm

    This video is better than the song. I was expecting some dirty video for this pretty shallow song. Instead, we get an artistic video full of some amazingly well-composed, geometric art shots. Excellent video, mediocre song. I am very excited for the Sky Might Fall video. Hopefully that will be even better and its song is infinitely better.
