Ok so I haven’t blogged in a veeery long time, but this video was inspiring enough to make me come write this post.

I love this very simple explanation of how twitter works. Especially when it’s described as “updates in-between blog posts and emails” (and phone calls of course).

This is one of the freshest videos of 2008.

This is Kanye performing his new single from his upcoming album at the VMAS tonight, which I heard is coming out before the end of the year. The drums in the hook are just too tight.

There’s so many songs out right now that have an old skool touch to them that I love. This is one of them. Is there some sort of reminiscence going on?

And she wants to be a first lady.

This video was definitely ready before 9/11 2007 cos it has clips which were used in the promo back then. I wonder how hard it was for Kanye to keep it a secret till now.

Ok so I just had to go pull this up.

Ok so as a follow up to my last post I went to pull up Hype WIlliam’s videography (you can get a more up-to-date one here) and it seems his work has been 95% hip-hop/R & B and Viva La Vida is one of his few non-black videos. He Robin Thicke’s Wanna Love You but that doesn’t count since he had Pharell in it. I’m very very impressed with Viva La Vida. It’s a classic video for a classic song.

Hype Williams is a genius I must say, with videos from California Love to John Legend’s Heaven and even further back to some Busta Rhymes & Brandy videos. He has earned legend status.

Coldplay are venturing out to be the Beatles of our decade (which is almost over) and I’m sure they’ll keep on going for many years to come. This is what you get when you combine real talent with a passion for music, not just to make money.

The world needs more music (and videos) like this.
