"How being rich is not going to save you from trials and testiments when its time to be jugded, how red bottoms wont make you happy in the end". 2:54-3:04 Exactly
@West coast Dre how come everyone that become successful in something, had to have sold their soul? Does hard work, a great team and wise decisions not a possibility?
Cole’s video made me genuinely feel something. The whole time I was waiting to see what would happen next. And it correlated perfectly with the lyrics.
2 faces wrapped in MAP (Modified Atmospheric Packaging), 3 Taxidermy heads above the fireplace, black and red colour theme, and the audience when first shown were like in Zombie-state/ MK-U. I think they forgot to show the Masonic Black and White Checkerboard floors, walls or design on clothes!
I like how Mez and j. Cole acknowledge that black women are setting the pace in hip-hop for trends and fashion a lot of blk men and white media won't have the balls to say that, Much respect 🙏✊👏. Really shocked me of ALL
Archetype/archetypes. Meaning a very typical example of a certain person or thing - as per Google. Damn Mez always got me learning shit! Nice Video concept by the way
I'm surprised by what he said about the black women in the video. I certainly didn't walk away thinking that it impowered them...the opposite actually. I'll have to watch again.
5:04 "Black people aren't as valuable as black ideas. "
Word 💯
mangi sunam fr I was like wat?
Same can be said with white people
@@lowkii712 white people aren't getting shot by cops for no reason.
@@mangisunam3329 the reason for police brutality on black people is because the police is afraid of them
@@niksterkai4303 to kill someone out of fear is just wrong
This was deeper than i thought it was gonna be

Don’t let this make you forget the fact that Mr. Krabs sold Spongebob’s Soul for 62 cents.

@@HarryJCLK
No.
@West coast Dre Bullshit. Cole's far too woke for that.
Lol

Crazy how far MEZ has come. He was such a dope artist in high school and a super humble kid. At least until he battled... good stuff MEZ
This why I love J. Cole!!! And Mez is amazing!!! Much to both of you!
Really dope! The female band breaking it down is my favorite part!!! It’s so smooth! 🔥🔥🔥
Hell yea it had me hype. Completely agree.

The Chronicles of Riddick inspired a scene in this video!? My mind is officially blown! 🤯
I think he meant "Pitch Black"
Dope, man. I appreciate everything behind the scenes. For real.

Did one of them heads look like jay-z to anyone else?
You mean the one with Gucci Mane's glasses? Nah, he looked more like Lil Baby.
He looks nothing like lil baby
Its basically copying Genuis, still interesting tho
Angel Solis still did a much better job than genius
@@ItsEbro on paper, but Genuis has style and is more entertaining
Genius just assumes and makes assumptions. Insider got the director and he told you all the real meanings. Insider did it better
He kinda looks like Charlemagne da gods lil brother
Wait
👍👍👍👍👍
Mez looks like Michael Jordan,Donald Glover and Roddy Rich at the same time
music video directors like up
perfect ed sheeran
