Kanye West is soon releasing his video for the song 'Street Lights,' but it has been released online for Kanye fans. The video, which was created by Javier Longobardo, is seriously old-school looking, with 80s-inspired graphics.
The Kanye West video for 'Street Lights' shows an animated Kanye West driving around a pinky-green city. The whole thing appears to me to be what 'Miami Vice' would be if animated at its height of cool. Definitely not something you see on TV often, and it’s bound to get some attention.
