Kanye West - Champion Video
Posted by admin | Filed under Music Videos, hip-hop
This is by far Kanye West’s best video to date. I really loved the ‘Good Life’ clip, but that was just basically the hip hop video version of Justice’s D.A.N.C.E clip - pure biting. That isnt to discredit Kanye for the job they did on that music video, but it is left way behind compared to this one. Even if this clip isn’t the real video and just part of some promotion event, I respect Kanye doing something completely left field on this one.
