Music video: Kanye West featuring Rihanna & too many other names for me to type - All of the lights


The stripped down version of the song at the start of the video was beautiful. And the scene of the little girl walking around the city was precious. Everything else after that was just a epileptic inducing mess of colours and every damn font that's featured in a Word package since 1989. A song so grand in scale just got ghetto stomped by its own video.

Hype Williams' music videos have been horrendous as of late. They all seem geared to the same objective: Have viewers go into an epileptic fit as a result of the spasmic editing and then bore you in the process.
