Kanye’s ‘Flashing Lights’ Seem a Bit Dull

February 14th, 2008

After being teased with a screen capture on Kanye’s blog last week, the long awaited video for ‘Flashing Lights’ has finally made its way to web. While I love the twisted plot and the featured ‘eye candy’ (damn, Rita G!), I’d be lying if I said I was totally blown away by the video. After ‘Can’t Tell Me Nothin’ the whole slow-motion, Kanye plus model in the desert concept just doesnt hit as hard this time around. Guess I was expecting a little more. There are few rumors going around that this may only be a trailer, or at least one of several videos that were supposedly shot for the track. Who knows…But for now I guess I’ll take what we have. At the end of the day, Kanye’s still one of the few hip hop artists whose videos continually go above and beyond the usual cookie cutter joints that flood the market. Peep and discuss.
