MUSIC VIDEO: KANYE WEST FT. YOUNG JEEZY – AMAZING

April 24th, 2009

Growing up as a military brat in Hawai’i was a life-altering experience for me, so Kanye West’s new video for the song “Amazing,” (featuring Young Jeezy) reminds me of how beautiful the 808 state still is.

The star premiered “Amazing” on 106th & Park on Thursday and it features aerial and landscape shots of the Oahu island. Oh yeah, the talented Hype Williams directed it.

    Aww dat song is fire, one of my favs of the album
    But wats up with Kanye???
    He always had a odd personality to me, something aint rite with that dude-LOL
    Seem like he got OCD or sum form of autism, because he be acting a lil off!
    mean I aint got nothin against him, but he needs to learn how to sustain eye contact with people when his talkin to them.
    Makes him a look alil weird…
    But oh well I guess weird is acceptable in the music industry rite?
    As long has he gives us hot music, Im Happy!

    I love how the video was both simple AND complex at the same time. Say what you will about his ego, but everything the man does, you can tell he puts his heart and soul into it. It doesn’t seem to be just a job for him, like, just shoot a video and go home and don’t worry about the end results. You can tell he considers it an art. So I can say the video was beautiful, as most of his videos are in their own way.

    And might I say, where did this new sexiness come from with Jeezy? It’s something about him now that’s really hot.

    kanye is a hard worker.
    the man dedicates alot to the music.
    and hes proud of his work and accomplishments, so why wouldn’t he have an ego?
    I sure would , if i had talent to put work out there and it was appreciated tremendously.

    This is one of my favorite songs on the album minus jeezy. Unfortunately the video was kinda boring. I’m glad it’s not the typical rap video… the scenery was amazing-I GUESS THAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT. Anyhoo I love me some Kanye, Chicago represent!

    he need to calm down with the voice reverb ish. Damn ‘Ye, stop tryna be like T.Pain. T.Pain aint even using that voice alternator thing no more… the imagery in the vid is cool, but I can’t listen to this song all the way through. it’s more like… not amazing.
