Well personally, I've had or seen much better. It saddens me to see much a good artist like Drake put out something like this. Not that I'm bragging or anything, but unlike the majority of the world that is now on Drake's d*ck, I've been listening to him since Degrassi, well that's OD so I'll say since his Room for Improvement mixtape. But what I think caught everyone's attention was the track "Best I Ever Had", from his mixtape So Far Gone. This definitely solidified his footprints in the music industry.
What shocks me most about the video is that it was directed by Mr. Kanye "Throw-a-b*tch-fit" West; so in some way or another I was expecting much more. Wait, did I just say that? I'm sure the moment we heard that Kanye was doing the video we were anticipating this great piece of art to represent such a good song. On the other hand we got one of the stereotypical aspects of what all rappers resort to...SEX! In this particular situation I don't think sex will sell at all. I definitely think I would've come up with a better treatment for the video. Anyways, here's what some of my peers said via Twitter [they are anonymous comments]. Oh, and you can peep the "video" below, I would say enjoy, but unless you're a male and like to see sweaty breasts all over, I don't think that's really an option.
Comments via Twitter:
-i'm so done with this Drake vid. Jiggling boobies is not sexy. This is KANYE'S work?? Really?
-This makes me want the old Drake back. Before he was signed, before he had a diamond encrusted chain, when he was just pushing mixtapes.
-WHERE'S WHEELCHAIR JIMMY AT? =(
[those all were from the same person LOL]
-"Best I Ever Had" vid...I can see Kanye's influence with all the T&A
-I think after directing this video, Kanye is one step closer to directing porn...
-Ok, its official. The over saturation of Drake in the media and the high hopes for his lyrical career are cutting his time short b4 he
-Drake's a actor so he was good. I just thought the concept was bad and disconnected from the topic.
