Jayson Rodriguez over at MTV News got the scoop from Rita G. about Kanye West's new video for the single "Flashing Lights" (w/ vocals by Dwele).
Check out the Playboy Playmate's response:
"This video will go over a lot of people's heads â€" and it's supposed to. I think it's great that it does. Because Kanye is just on another level; he's ahead of his time, in a sense. So all the third-graders who come home from school and want to watch videos and snap their fingers and all that, they're probably gonna think, 'That video is wack, but that chick got a fat a--.' And that's fine. But people in higher positions, they're gonna see something different. They're gonna get it, people who are thinkers." [read more here.]
yummy....
But wait... did any of you get a chance to download some of those leaked Janet Jackson tracks? If not, get the goods [ here] courtesy of some other blog.
As I mentioned before, I kinda liked "The 1" featuring Missy Elliot.
What do you think?
i dont know if shes on roids or not but imma catch her with my net just in case. you can never be too sure mate.
Kanye is always different with videos so why does this broad think b/c she's in the video this is the first time Kanye has a innovative thought. She needs not to talk and do what she does best....continue to take her clothes off!
KANYE WEST:
GRADUATION THE MUSICAL MIXTAPE

I been wantin to bang Rita G. for da past 3yrs, lmaooo but i guess this video will do, it's my favorite track on his album......
Kanye is promoting sex and violence...smh
ha ha @ steroid hunter. i heard their makeing a new law saying if you take roids with out a real problem its a felony.plus doesnt it give peole heart attacks by the age of 41??? plus you lose your hair and your head gets big. ahh no thankz on dat
What's the point of blurring out the lighter fluid but still show her beat the shit out of him with the shovel?
I looooovvvveeeee Rita G!!! Got damn!!!!1 The video to me explains her getting rid of the shit he brought her, then killing ole boy with the shovel! Don't take a rocket scientist!!!
Sure this video is different but she needs to stop making out like as if its an intellectual video telling us all some profound message. Its just a video where a girl with a phatty, burns some of her clothes, does a t*tty bop and stabs Kanye West with a shebbel. no biggie
and i've already put money on Discipline becoming the first Janet Jackson album not to go platinum. Which means in a few months time I'm gonna be a very rich lady. As long as the stans keep stanning for Janet on the blogs but illegally downloading her tracks I should get a nice stack.
Janet's song is the hottness!!!
Missy - "Oh K, K, K" - damn...c'mon with that shit, three K's in a row? Fuck outta here!
Yo that Kanye video.................mmmmmmm still scratching my head over that one. Janet's song is hot but I love Rollercoaster and So much Betta. Those are hot! Oh LA'SHONDA, shut the f up. No one is stannin for no one go finish practincing your Soulja boy routine
^^^^QUIT YA SQWUAKING STANLEY

And you also said would be a "star" and we would be checking for you soon. How is that coming along?
That's a bad bad chick, that miss Rita G. She can get the bidness. Kanye did all of us in hiphop a favor by putting her in his video, we got more eye candy. And kudos for not exploiting these video chicks like alot of other rappers do. He had Angel lookin nutt-bustingly bad in "goodlife" too.
And I'm surprised that Rita G knows so much about the state of hiphop. She knows most of the folks that watch these video's have the IQ of 60 and won't understand it. SOHH Streets is a a perfect example, as dumb a bird as they come.
Its not the usual hiphop video but not innovative just better than the norm. He has been doing videos out in the desert a lot lately...touch the sky, can't tell me nothing, now flashing lights remixed video...don't get me wrong but this is what art students do...take creativity to another level. Kanye needs to lay off the bitches and riches on the next one...get political with it Kan...lets see that
You know something isn't right when a video hoe have to defend your video. Who gave her permission to talk anyway shouldn't she be on to her next video. Also is that the whole video her burning his clothes and beating him with a shovel or is it more to it.

Please be quiet who the hell wants to be a video girl. What kind of career is that ? I can't believe Kanye West took time out to tell her the concept of the video like she was an important person. I surprise he didn't say "look cute" and "make sure you don't hit me with the shovel".
That new Kanye video is really good...my sister thinks it's wack but what the hell does she know?
As for Rita G...this is the first time that i've heard of her...i possess no hateful feelings for the chick...What she's saying is valid...
What's with all the hate anyway? Sounds like people in this forum are envious of her beauty...for what?
The lyrics tells the story of the relationship and the video shows the climax. Simple (for the thinking man). Stay up and stay safe in these streets!!! PEACE
I could give a fuck less yeah she did the titty bop ( hard as hell too) but fuck the video the song should create the visual for the listener. Not the video. And why are we taking so much time to break that shit down...I swear we been breaking this shit down for over a week. NEXT

I mean damn listen to the lyrics and u will understand! Its not that hard to figure out ppl. Its going over a lot of ppl's head because most music consumers are sheep...
Kanye's video is off the planet! Rita G...she's a freakin GODDESS! No room 4 hate with this one pepz. Kanye is that brother rite now - inspired, creative, breaking the mould - gotta admire that.
Janet/Missy track is HOT! I can't lie. They cook up a mean collab 2gether once more!
La'Shonda? $$$ on Discipline not goin platinum? WTF?!? Sounds very Khia La' - pull another female artist down as U try to drag UR 'nobody knows U ass' in2 relevance. Heard of MASHONDA...but who the f*ck is La'Shonda?

LMAO @ another salty female who's hating on a woman more blessed than she is. There's a difference of about a million dicks difference between this chick and Superhead. That's as dumb a comparison as you can make, and your about as dumb a bird as they come.

********************************
totally agree with ya.
Luv the new Janet.
I like the new Janet, but the beat could have been different.
I agree with Haze. The video is not that deep. So why is Rita G. and everybody else making a big deal out of it? It's an alright video, but does it really deserve this much debate? Hells no. Next...
Oh yeah, and me likey the new Janet. Hotness!
LMAO@ jono!! You have made my week!!!
SHE RITE, THESE LIL KIDS DONT WANT 2 UNDERSTAND ANYTHING. THEY JUST WANNA DANCE AROUND LIKE COONS
http://www.myspace.com/jdubbthayounghectic
She is pretty and sexy. I think I will love her. LOL. Every time I sign in to the celeb club millionairecupid.com, I can see many new topics talking about her. She has created a nice profile for seeking a great man for hook ups.
MAAAANNN, f uc k the video, i think that was the MEANEST A$$ SHOT IN VIDEO HISTORY!!!! THAT WAS SOME BOOTY TALK INTRO SH_T. Can anybody think of a betta one than that on a video? Refresh my smoked out memory. c'mon censorship people, u gotta "full" a$$ shot with a side of titty bop, but u blur out the lighter fluid??? FOH!!! Not mad at yall 4 f uc king up tho keep up the good work.
The Janet song is ok. Nothing to get a boner over. I can never understand what the hell she is saying. Maybe that's why I can't relate to her. I do like the song Feedback. It's nice to dance to.
Oh whatever!!! The slow motion effect in flashing lights is NOT the first in music video history! Big freakin whoop! If the world has forgotten the "All about Benjamins" video HYPE WILLIAMS had Puff Daddy (back then) and Ma$e walking through the desert in slow motion through the ENTIRE first verse! And it was fire...back then...anywhoo I don't see anything "headscratching" about this...
The Kanye West Video is made to show that only Kanye could get his azz whipped by a white girl ;P
For Janet fans,
U can download 7-8 tracks of Janets album over at Sandraros@.com Considering she has 13 actual songs (out of 22 tracks) you can get a good feel for the album.
But I know you FANS will go out and buy the album as well...lol

video looks like its gonna be dope cant wait for the uncut version.. u know they gonna clean it up for mtv
Aiight yall, the song is called flashing lights, its not about a club, its about the paparazzi cameras. Take the first verse "she dont believe in shootin stars. Thats why she didnt shoot him she killed him with a shovel. The paparazzi flashed a picture of him with another woman, she seen it and asked where are you yeezy. Second verse he tries to sweet talk her but she was not having that. If somebody woulda told me a year ago it go get this difficult, he didnt want to know she was going to kill him. Think about it.
Man it's alot of hating goin on in here. That, and alot of S-L-O-W people. As far as the video, I think the flashing lights represents danger and her, so she is "danger." The flashing lights are suppose to be like a warning, I think, which is why the girl in the song is the only one saying "flashing lights." The rest is obvious if you listen to the lyrics: him saying how he love to show off and not thinking she was gonna take it this far.
This my first time ever hearing of Rita G too, but shawty is a TEN!!
i'm a lady and all i got to say about rita g is DAYUM! i'm very excited to see a girl with a banging body who isn't like 100 lbs soaking wet. keep the beautiful curves in the videos!!! girls, don't hate! we need to stick together.
