Theophilus London – I Want You (Directed by Va$htie) | Hypebeast

For the past year, I’ve questioned the originality of recent statements made in fashion, music, and art. Moreover, it’s time for an artistic renaissance. As the first decade of the new millennium is ending, technology has been rendered as the vanguard of decade statements. Technological trends have occurred while creative movements are recycled and branded as new for today’s youth.

Theophilus London, “center of the new urban pop movement”, is a direct example of musical….

This song and his new mixtape are very strong in my opinion. This video on the other hand, isn’t.

I get what they were trying to go for with this video, but I actually had to hold back from laughing because I like London’s music so much.

its like “hey hey hey” drake style. the black n white is cool and sex always sells so hella dope cop fresh jive awesome to the possum son

im with “EFDUB”…the video didnt attach itself to the song….at the 1:54 mark the song hit its climax but the video didnt follow. I’m not saying that has to always happen but it would have worked better, especially with the Marvin sample. I think the scene where he istarts taking pictures of her could have been the climax, then from there to the tub scene………………..I’m jus sayin

Oh, and his rhymes, pretty weak too. There was almost NO wordplay, his cadence is wack, just not a rapper or producer I would ever support.

I agree with King. Pretty low-skilled musician, if I can figure out exactly how he made the song and replicate it in 20 minutes, is he that good? No, hes a joker and its sad he gets any publicity.

I have to say I liked where she was trying to take it, it just didnt get there. The artist wasnt comfortable in the environment and looked out of place. There seemed to be no real story. Va$htie seemed to only care about the shots and look of the vidoe and not so much the treatment. It was boring and pretty disappointing being the song was dope and the potential of the video didnt match the outcome.

it was alright, i just wished it would’ve climaxed with the song.

I actually for the most part liked the video. I do, however, question the effectiveness of Glenn Aya Lovrich. I think they couldve selected someone alot more seductive, alot more edgy, prettier, and more tempting than her. The styling was off for Lovrich as well. I wouldve liked to see Theophilus London a bit more relaxed through out the video. Overall, I see what Va$htie was trying to convey…

Don’t mind the song but the video really is not very good. In fact its pretty weak and this is coming from someone who likes Vashtie and the way she come across.

This is weak. Marvin deserves better treatment and Theo needs MachineDrum. Oh, and the video is LOLLERZ.

That marvin Gaye sample was so soothing! I just downloaded his first mixtape last night and I wake up to see a vid for his new one! Mans got a new sound !
