Pur Entertainment @ur service: Kanye Shows How to "Runaway" From Conventional Hip Hop Videos

"Creativity- like human life itself- begins in darkness." - Julia Cameron

Kanye West has been through alot in the past 2 years. The loss of his mother, being ostrocised in court of public opinion. I agreed with him, Beyonce did have a better video. The backlash for the "Taylor Swift Interruption" was due to his skin color and what he represented.

A young, black, cocky, creative, dickhead. He is a great artist, producer, and somewhat fashion icon. Although I wouldnt be caught dead in skinny jeans, and everytime I see a dude in them I believe he is going to start "Jerkin" at any minute.

Anyway, while getting ready to go out one night I noticed his new full length mini movie "Runaway". So I planned to watch a few minutes while preserving my sexy (thanks Diddy), and catch the rest when i got back home. 35 minutes later i was calling a friend to tell them to watch this video. I love this video. One thing about Kanye, he is not afraid to go left field with his ideas. Kanye directed this piece that was written by acclaimed hip hop director Hype Williams. Now let me be clear about this I dont entertain all that illuminati talk.Its dumb because the organization does not exist and control the world. And if they did, why would they worship the devil? Anytime a black male becomes successful or reaches new heights in fame, its some secret organization behind it. Satan this and satan that, get over it.

Sometimes I give it a second thought......

Back to what I was saying, the video is beautiful visually. Kanye and Selita Ebanks are horrible thespians, but it kind of adds to the video. The Phoenix falling down to earth and having to find her way back is symbolic of how Kanye views himself. She is told she shouldnt burn and return to her world, but she refuses to allow herself to be held down from being what she is. He even tells her he wont let her burn, that he will keep her from going back to her world. But just like us men, he falls asleep after a hot woman puts it on him and she steals off and burns anyway. Which reminds me, Kanye get checked bruh! Each song in this mini movie sounds like the Kanye is growing even more as an artist. Standouts are plenty, including "Devil in a New Dress", "All of the Lights", and the titular "Runaway". Kanye is a one of a kind hip hop artist. This mini movie and even just the video for the song "Runaway" is refreshing and beautiful. If you cant appreciate the grace and skill of the dancers in the video i suggest you open your eyes.

Artist you do not have to have gyrating, humping strippers in your videos. You do not have to drive around in a rented car, and aim at the camera with your trigger finger. Lets get more creativity and less ignorant imagery. I understand you may have a low budget, but think outside the box. But then again if your song is called "Booty Booty Everywhere", then i guess you cant think too far outside the box.
