Jay Z "Lost One" : Dir.
FYI the director for this video was Matthew Rolston.
Rolston pulled his name from the vid, and, surprisingly, Jay-Z continues to earn my respect. What could the original vid have been like? This works fascinatingly well. For God's sake see it on TV first, don't click on that Tube link.
wake me up when this is done.boring.
it's the song that pulls this through.
This is actually on my TV at this very moment. It does look amazing, one of the best photographed rap videos I've seen in a long time, though I feel the overall piece is best described as "flacid".
Like the previous video I think this is a well done, top level production that sort of has the consistency of mashed up carrots.
MTV2's tag just had this credited to Anthony Mandler
