On To The Next One

So what happened to all the women with barely any clothes on, prancing about, grinding against their singing 'pimps'?
Jay-Z has broken the mold on this one by bringing in Director Sam Brown.  He's directed a couple of Foo Fighters tracks (The Pretender, Wheels) as well as The Verve's Love is Noise.  This video for Jay-Z's single (Feat Swizz Beatz) 'On to the Next One' from the Blueprint III is a visual treat and surely one of his finest productions to date.  Black and white, sleek and edgy, grungey and gothic, stylized and clean, surreal and oppressive, this video is a piece of art that you'll watch over and over again. The Damien Hirst skulls dripping with paint, the fiery basketballs, the ink in water and visualised beats all hooked up to an awesome track have made this one of the finest and progressive videos I've seen for ages.
