Why are people freaking out over Kanye's video? It's just a bunch of naked look-a-likes. It's not like they're fucking or doing anything crazy. Are exposed breasts supposed to be "edgy" or "shocking?"

And it's not wrong to use someone's likeliness for something like this. It reminds me of animated comedies like The Simpsons drawing celebrities to make fun of them, and no one ever got sued for that. Granted, they weren't naked, but still. There's nothing slanderous or overly-offensive about it.

And what exactly is Kanye trying to say here? Is he "exposing" the people depicted in the video? Is he trying to say that he's better than those people, or that he "made them famous?" I actually wanna know what people think about this.

This is such a non-controversy it's ridiculous. I see people talking about it on Twitter but I'm convinced it's fake hype drummed up by a marketing team. I'm also convinced that a few of the celebrities depicted were in on it too. And I guarantee no one will even remember this happened a week from now.

>>

>I'd bet there'll be legal trouble at least with Taylor, Bush and Caitlyn
I bet you're wrong.
Taylor loves attention just as much as Kanye, if not more.
Bush has been shat on pop culture so much it's been boring for a long time, he never does anything about it and he's not gonna start now. Satire of public figures is protected under the first amendment. Dubya being a good conservative respects that.
Caitlyn Jenner was probably in on it. I wouldn't be surprised if it was literally him in the video and not a cgi body double.

I'm surprised (and disappointed) that Obama isn't there, since he talked shit about Kanye at least once

The vulnerability shown by their non-sexualised sleeping bodies showing them as just normal people.

The fact that you can't tell if they're real or fake, just like celebrities in real life.

The fact that context makes the video; the only reaason people care is because they're famous. The final shot tells so many stories, just because they're famous.

The composition of the final shot alone, the folds in the sheets.

Kanye West has been making cutting-edge fine art since Yeezus, music videos included.

Nobody near his level of fame comes close.

And this is ignoring the balls required to even release such a video.

Art is meant to invoke a reaction.

>>
>>65923900

The themes presented by Desiderio are extrapolated through the grainy-cam footage and re-appropriated for West's commentary on fame.

You clearly have no fucking clue about contemporary art. It's 2016, uncultured fuckwad.

famous continuing into FSMH in the video is fucking hilarious

You know, kanye has really grown on me. I used to laugh at the idea of him thinking he's a real artist but when you get into it what is an artist anyways? Someone who pours their heart into their work, ignoring the critics and even your own financial situation, and who ends up producing something of merit.

I mean I never hear people criticizing authors and saying they aren't artists just because they don't like the persona or their books. After studying art in many different forms I think it's obvious that kanye is an artist and I think his music is very expressive. Life of pablo is a return to form after black skinhead too, I think he is more justified in his persona nowdays
actually come to think of it I can see a lot of links between him and nabokov particularly

shitty place to have this discussion though. fucking internet

Sexuality in the US, somehow, is still very taboo. Nudity is linked to sex so it still disturbs people. It's one of those strange sociology phenomenon wherein this case, people are uncomfortable, angered by, scared by, something that they and everyone they know partakes in: sex. The remnants of ancient Christian ideals still run rampant in this country unfortunately.

Marketing.

He knew Mark Zuckerberg would never give him money but the media acted like he really needed it. They talked about it for a week straight.

Most artists who release a new album only get a day or two of media take out, Kanye got at least a week and a half of 24 hour news coverage
>>
>>65924474
He wants to use the money to build a better community for the black community, and he aims to do this by becoming a leader and an influencer. That's his goal in expressing philanthropic desires and his recent venture in becoming a fashion business owner. Either one would place him firmly OUTSIDE of the music community, which is where non-sporting black celebrities languish until irrelevancy or death. He would become the black Steve Jobs.

>>65924177

yeah I will say there's some disgust, but for me it seems like it was more a result of like how I said they're "just there" which is pretty unusual when it comes to the way nudity is usually presented. It was impersonal and cold and almost alien so the disgust came from feeling like I'm looking at corpses or blobs of meat.

then amplify that feeling with it feeling incredibly voyeuristic due to the VHS camcorder

But yeah, very obvious commentary on the following celebrities culture

tesla's a prime example; you raise capital through luxury products (yzy szn 1,2,3 etc) to get the infrastructure to drive the price point down without diminishing the quality of your product

the merch t-shirt shit is straight-up money grabbing. ye built a brand around TLOP with the insane media coverage and is cashing in on it. the designs are cool but it's shit quality printed on gildan shirts. not long term fashion goals.

kanye and the people he hires to work on the visual elements of his releases are generally pretty kitschy tbqh. like a black version of lady gaga but trollier.

the way i see it mankind has always needed celebrities.

in ancient civilizations they would come up with gods who they believed were gifted with extraordinary beauty, talents, strength, vigor, etc. People became obsessed with the religions, it became part of the culture of civilizations, and in a weird way the "gods" themselves (such as the Hindu gods Vishnu, Padma or the Greek/Roman Gods like Zeus) gave the people something to aspire to an emulate. Kings and Queens later on were revered and held up as the greatest of nations that everyone else looked up to.

I think modern day celebrities is really just an extension of this. As humans we crave to see something that's human, and yet larger than life. That's why Superman and Batman get popular, they captivate us and make us want to emulate them or hate them. These celebrities who are in all the news headlines, music videos, political offices hold such deep influence over our world, by nature of being human we can't help but be captivated by such people, whether we like it or not.

I really don't know what I'm getting at, but basically what I'm saying is the culture of celebrity obsession is something inherently human, and will probably never go away.

I bet this was all Bill Cosby's idea.

you make a lot of good points here, it seems to me that Kanye is humanizing the celebrities to the point of no longer being godly, only to then break this illusion by looking at the camera at the end. maybe i'm looking into too much, but there's something clarvoiyant about the way he looks at the camera, as if to say "i know".

i think something that could be said about this music video is how much (to me) it almost feels like a snuff film. it's undeniably uncomfortable to watch and is especially unnerving when the music cuts out and we're left intruding on the bodies of a bunch of nude humans, notice how the closer they are to the middle, the more relevance they have in Kanye's life and career, they all center around him as if to say that he is above all of them.

>yfw the actual meaning of the video is that Cosby drugged and raped them all in one night, in the same giant bed.

>comparing it to a snuff film
well for starters, I'd say a video of a bunch of naked people in bed is closer to a porno than a snuff film.

And yes I think he is humanizing them, that's why they're just snoring at the end. I think that's all it is: they're snoring, vulnerable and naked. just like anybody else at night.

as for the centering and relation to his life, I think he obviously picked people who's fame is related to his

>George W. Bush because of the "GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE" think Kanye screamed during Hurricane Katrina
>Bill Cosby because of the Kanye tweet that went viral
>Vogue CEO because he's obsessed with Vogue and fashion and friends with her
>Caitlyn because of the fact that he was on her show
>Donald Trump because of all the constant comparisons between them, and Trump himself jokingly saying on Jimmy Fallon "I'm thinking of having Kanye West as my VP" and also the fact that if Kanye DOES in fact run for President in 2020, he could potentially be running against President Trump. Also just the general fact that Trump is the most controversial human being on Earth at this moment.
>Taylor Swift because of the VMA massive controversy and the lyrics of the song
>Ray J, Rihanna, Chris, Kim and the rest because of all the sexual bullshit

basically Kanye realizes how powerful it is just to be seen with a famous person, so he includes many of the most famous people related to him he can pull out (minus Obama, cause he doesn't want to die)

I don't know if Kanye's implying he's "above" them all, only that he's related by the mutual thread of fame and controversy. you could easily argue Swift, Cosby, Bush and Trump are all more famous and influential than Kanye. He knows very, very well the full power of Meme Magic and is in fact one of the greatest magicians this generation of people have ever witnessed.

tl;dr Kanye is the zeitgeist of a generation, dispelled all expectations yet again, etc. etc.

maybe not a snuff film, but you do get the "i shouldnt be watching this" uncomfortable vibe right? maybe its just a problem with society and conditioning.

I would love to see what would have happened if Kanye made this video then had some nobody release it. Would people say omg this nobody is actually a genius? No. They'd say wtf is this stupid 2 minute video and nobody would even care. But the exact same video made by Kanye now it's some incredible work of art?

if it was exactly the same, people would still talk about it. its still a bed full of naked celebrities, retard
>>
>>65925597
That doesn't make it a work of art. It just makes it trashy celebrity tabloid shit. People only act like it's some highbrow art because of Kanye's image.
>>
>>65925622
this tbqh
>>
>>65925581
The fact that Kanye realeased it is a part of the art dumbass
>>
>>65925581
it probably would be even more disturbing
>>
>>65925622
or because of the allusion to other works of art, the commentary on celebrity culture and obsession.

>>65925633
this. its meta. you have to be following Kanye and celeb culture to put the pieces together.

but no you're probably right
>>
>>65925642
Not talking about how disturbing. Only people acting like it's some genius work of art.

>>65925633
Exactly the point. It's not a great work of art as art. It's only because it's him.

If I made the statue of David people would be amazed because of the skill involved. It wasn't only because it was Michelangelo but the art itself. But this video is only seen as great art by anyone because of who made it not the art itself.
>>
>>65925559
Reminds me of amateur porn from the 90's

Commentary doesn't make something good art, beauty does. There's no beauty here

so there's no point in the unfiltered human body?

So what are they doing with the models? They should auction them. How much would you pay for a Taylor realdoll?

so its like the last supper in a bed? pretty boring

GOAT Video
>>
>>65926058
2/10
>>
>>65925951
the video itself is filmed to look like a leaked sex tape. it's really unsettling to see all of these famous figures in bed together naked, not being able to tell who is real and who is just a wax model. there was like half a second when i started watching it where i entertained the possibility that kanye just leaked footage of a spooky illuminati orgy to get back at taylor.
>>
This guy actually filled a stadium to play a 2 minute video and then just play his songs on the sound system? WTF.
>>
>>65926108
wrong 10/10
best music video since Runaway
>>
>>65926133
I meant 2/10 on the troll comment calling it GOAT video.

>>65926161
ah ok

I'm not going to watch this shit if it's just on tidal. no one should care that much, it's just pop music. I know it's exactly his appeal, but kanye west still needs to get his head out of his ass imo

Thanks. just as I expected though; generic rap song with so deep commentary on the totally pleb celebrity culture, no less. It's not art just as a gossip article isn't literature, even if it's got a fucking dope graphic design team to package it

Yeah, just another song that, in its second half, turns into a fun chopped up version of a dancehall song. How many more of those are they gonna do?

You need to learn the definition of generic. You can think the song is trash/not artful all you like, but it's not generic.

It's plainly apparent that it's portraying how celebs live their lives, they're naked because it symbolizes the voyeuristic way that famous people's lives are scrutinized.

NO ITS ONLY CONSIDERED ART BECAUSE KANYE MADE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

That was pretty bad, I expected it to be bad but in a funny way, something to laugh at like most things to do with Kanye lately but it was just boring. The last shot was nice but the 4 or 5 minutes of panning over everyone in silence was bullshit for the sake of bullshit. Would have been much better if they just had the camera pan out similar to Power

why didn't kanye have a hole in his ear in this video
>>
>>65926960
So you think the video on its own merits is genius? Without Kanye's fame behind it people would think that?
>>
>>65925581
>>65926869
But that's not true. I can 100% imagine seeing a video or something like this at the MoMA.

Are you this dense you don't understand art?
>>
>>65926960
It's a pretty fair point actually, if Eminem had released a video thats almost exactly the same (different people) then everyone on here would be saying how bad it is, but because it's Kanye that isn't happening. I don't even know if the people praising this are joking, it's gotten to the point where it really could be either way.

One of the fakest looking ones.

Do you really think Kim would lie in bed naked right next to her mother?

>>65926979
no and yes

>>65926989
I don't believe for a minute this would ever make it into Moma unless someone famous made it.

Honestly with how shitty modern art can get it wouldn't surprise me at all. This isn't genius I agree but it would definitely be able to get into MoMA
>>
>>65926979
You're being very dense

we filter out artistic works based on where they originate, that idea is obvious and central to the artistic landscape

names are built over the course of 20 years, sometimes less
but a work is going to get ignored if it doesn't sit behind a name

that's simply the way it is. Would it obviously be art if it came from anyone else? Yes. Would anyone care about it if it came from anyone else? Probably no.
