Artist: Jay-Z

After last week's avalanche of amazing videos, things slowed up a bit this week. Still, our top pick is an uncanny, impossible-to-forget piece of work, and there's plenty of other good stuff further down the list. Check out our picks below. Read More...

The official video for "Ni**as In Paris" was released yesterday and, as someone who has never been a huge fan of music videos, I have to admit that this is pretty incredible. The video focuses on Jay-Z and Kanye West performing the song in front of a huge crowd of fans. The feeling of their live performance is brilliantly captured, intentionally highlighting why the two rappers are the contemporary kings of hip hop. The HD quality of the video and camera effects help get the job done too. It's a mesmerizing visual experience and, for me, illustrating a live performance with [...]

because it's Friday, and I've had this stuck in my head... Read the rest on Speakerboxxx.com

You can't get more star studded than this combo of global rap stars. Fresh from fatherhood, Jay-Z teams up with long term Buddy Kanye West . The clip is composed of scenes from Kanye West and Jay-Z performing on the 'Watch The Throne' tour. Be warned though! "THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED BY EPILEPSY ACTION TO POTENTIALLY TRIGGER SEIZURES FOR PEOPLE WITH PHOTOSENSITIVE EPILEPSY" "VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED" Phew, so now we've got that out of the way, check it out below...

Tweet vaso link Full disclosure: before watching this video, I never ever listened to this song. This is particularly strange because I'd identify myself as the most likely to listen to hip hop out of the writers of the blog (except for Will), but I never got Watch the Throne . The first thing I heard from that album was "Otis," and that soured me to the rest of the experience. (Redding's music, if you didn't know, is kind of sacred territory for me.) [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , The Hit List Getty|Redferns|Getty The day after the 2012 Grammy nominees were announced, the New York Times released an excerpt from an interview with Bon Iver 's Justin Vernon conducted earlier in the year, before he was nominated for four Grammys, including best new artist, best song and record of the year. After claiming his self-titled album "isn't the kind of [...]

A few months (or weeks) from now, you may not remember who won the Super Bowl. But we bet you'll remember who performed at halftime , and that's just one reason why she dominates the latest Pop & Fizz chart. We've tallied the ups and downs of M.I.A., Lana Del Rey, Missy Elliott and the rest of this week's news-making pop artists, and you'll find the results below. (Remember, we study each artist or major news story according to their size (that's Rank) and then we weigh how they're faring overall in the pop zeitgeist (that's Hype). [...]

Uno dei brani più affascinanti di "Watch The Throne", soprattutto per ciò che concerne la produzione, ha finalmente il suo video ufficiale che vi mostriamo qui in alto a top del post. Stiamo parlando dell'ultimo singolo di Kanye West e Jay-Z che porta il nome di "N***as in Paris", brano che vanta già qualche cover importante e che ha avuto, per il momento, come peak position nella Billboard la posizione numero cinque. La clip non aggiunge nulla di nuovo al brano: ne richiama l'atmosfera frenetica e psichedelica con luci e sdoppiamenti di [...]

La formación original de The Beach Boys - Brian Wilson , Mike Love , Al Jardine , Bruce Johnston y David Marks - actuará por primera vez luego de una pausa de 15 años, junto a Foster The People y Maroon 5 en la ceremonia de entrega de los Grammy Awards 2012 , este domingo 12 de febrero en el Staples Center de Los Angeles.

Did You Hear? :: She's barely a month old, but Blue Ivy Carter's parents have already begun the application process to trademark their little princess's name. Bey and Jay plan to use the brand for a line of baby products, which will include ... baby cosmetics? [ Rolling Stone ] :: Katy Perry and Russell Brand are officially dunzo now that the two have signed papers finalizing their divorce . A slave to old habits, Katy signed her name with a smiley face. [ People ] :: Miley Cyrus won't be [...]

You know there's some excessive strobe action on the horizon when a video comes with a warning about possibly inducing epileptic fits. But then I guess Jay-Z and Kanye West aren't really ones to do things half-heartedly, are they? The new video for the pair's rather large tune 'Ni**as In Paris' hit the web earlier today. And as you can probably guess, its rather slick, with all sorts of kaleidoscopic effects in the mix to mess with your mind. 'Ni**as' is a bit of a big room tune really, so it makes sense that [...]

OK, I'm certain Jay and Kanye are just trolling the Illuminati conspiracy theorist at this point. Video: Jay-Z & Kanye West - Niggas In Paris is a post from: That Hip Hop Blog

"Niggas In Paris" marks the 2nd Kanye video that has a seziure inducing warning in the beginning. Trust me on this, this is 100x worse than "All Of The Lights". Seriously, try making it trhough the whole video without getting a headache. The Throne - "Niggas in Paris"

Well, I guess this right here was inevitable. Kanye West and Jay-Z 's Watch The Throne megahit "N*ggas In Paris" now has a seizure-inducing music video, composed mostly of live footage from Kanye and Hov's recent US tour. Flashing lights, mirror image effects, Kanye and Jay dancing... it's all there. Thoughts? If you aren't feeling creative, feel free to copy and paste one of the following suggested comments: That shit cray! Ball so [...]

This video dropped earlier today so I'm sure most of you have already watched it. Those of you that do not suffer from epileptic seizures of course. While most of you would have liked to see Jay and Kanye going ape shit in France....well you didn't. The visuals were taken from the duo's show at the Staples Center. Pretty simple video but something about it makes it mesmerizing. I couldn't stop watching the damn thing. Before I knew it, Watch The Throne took away 4:10 of my life. Would I have liked to [...]

Jay-Z and Kanye West have double reason to celebrate — their Watch The Throne single "Ni**as In Paris" just went double-platinum, and their seizure-inducing video (filmed at the duo's final tour stop at LA's Staples Center last December ) received a fair amount of positive reviews from critics and fans alike. (Though it's quite possible that many epileptics did not react favorably to the video's kaleidoscopic effects and flashing lights.) See what everyone was saying about Jay and Kanye goin' gorillas in their visually stimulating concert vid. [...]

Yeah I didn't bleep out NIGGAS like the rest of the blogs did. Take that society. Check it out.

I touched down in Paris this afternoon around 1:45. And despite the fact that "Niggas in Paris" has ostensibly nothing Paris-specific about it, the video still seemed to drop at a pretty auspicious time. In any case, Paris is still gorgeous, and this song is still making large crowds of people go fucking gorillas, so I can only assume all is right with the world. While some of us missed the boat on what's being called one of the greatest hip-hop tours of all time, Hype William's clip offers up a triumphant live version from their Staples Center [...]

Today I'm excited to bring you the visuals for one of the hottest big hits from the past few months, 'Ni**s In Paris'. We featured some filthy remixes of the track. Well here's the pretty sick visuals showcasing their live show, with all the lights, and filled with tons of crazy video editing effects. And the popular phrase "That Shit Cray" gets loud at 1:40, clearing up any misspellings. The video then progresses to some even crazier effects. Turn it up, enjoy!

This is seizure blackout shit that'll make you see visions of Pharoahs building golden pyramids on Mars, something like I imagined Tupac Rave to be. The kind of shit that makes Faraone steam from his ears and leaves DJ Knife in speechless awe. DON'T LET ME INTO MA ZON.
