so be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’ve selected our
favorite music videos of January 2017
productions that stand out both in style
and in substance
I they are nobody
number 10 no lie Sean Paul featuring
Dooley back garden
directed by Tim nikasha this video
highlights Sean Paul’s undeniable
charisma and charm yet there’s visual
flair to appreciate everywhere there’s
mirrors lots and lots of mirrors but
rather than feeling like a cheap gimmick
to symbolise reflection the visual
further accentuate the superstar in the
making do a leap I know the staging and
color palette works wonders and the
external shots featuring Sean’s Hall
provides some Street flavor as well
overall the imagery creates a hypnotic
effect and combined with the catchy
chorus no lie
is most definitely pure fire across the
board number nine cold cold cold Cage
the Elephant
[Music]
directed by lead singer Matthew Schultz
the video for cold cold cold shows a
clear Kubrick influence right dad
but whereas some rock bands rely heavily
on blatant homage to their favorite
directors page the elephant takes a more
broad approach for mood now the
monochrome imagery gets the job done
along with the claustrophobic and
disturbing setting furthermore the
Kentucky rockers serve as the house band
for a weird beheading ritual which
definitely adds a WTF element to the
vision
it’s the kind of cinematic video that
stands up on its own complete with a
cold color palette complemented by a
touch of blood-red
number eight good drank 2 chainz
featuring gucci mane and quavo to keep
my matches like the APM while black and
white imagery can sometimes be used to
convey emotion this Howard Ross
production utilizes it for pure style
waited 5 ahead def peg to complement the
track old-school vibe there’s some
vintage flavor and good drank not to
mention the standout purple imagery of
the drank itself with the free flowing
camera and relaxed demeanor of chains
Gucci and quavo the video exudes with a
classic cool of a bygone era will
suffice with the kids at dumbest clearly
like Bombay take offense normal row but
they will keep like doctors I’ve not
seen in to number 7 castle on the hill
ed Sheeran
it’s been a while since we’ve received
any new music from this English pop star
but clearly he’s been busy working
having released two brand-new music
videos in January of 2017 the first
directed by George Belfield
takes the audience on a journey through
Sharon’s adolescence in his home town of
Framlingham first on Friday night I
don’t recognize combining the scenic
visuals of the English countryside with
the intimate close ups from Sharon’s
memory castle on the hill plays more
like a short film in a music video
and it was followed up by an equally
captivating video for a tract shape is
becoming number six
hallelujah money guerrillas featuring
benjamin clementine if the last video
doesn’t find its way into your dreams
this one most certainly will for their
first song in six years guerrillas
teamed up with giorgio teste to direct a
seriously trippy production released
just in time for donald trump’s
inauguration despite the appearance of
rainbows and animated birds there’s an
underlying sadness – hallelujah money
reinforced by the apocalyptic imagery
let’s begin
[Music]
and so is genifique it’s not your
typical party anthem nor is it a video
that many will have on repeat yet it’s a
strong visual statement a dynamic return
for one of music’s most celebrated alt
rock bands
[Music]
the comedy is man stuff like this
number five pure comedy father John
misty babies that screaming truly a
music video in touch with the modern
world this production is a shortened
snippet of the 25-minute original film
somebody’s gotta go kill something well
I’m look after the can it’s a political
music video an unapologetic take on
Trump’s rise with visual references to
troubling American theme where did they
find you they he lifted
the absence of the artist lends weight
to the central message and father John
contrasts dark cartoons with well-placed
footage to accentuate the lyrics
never
don’t know it sir
your comedy undoubtedly follows an
agenda and the images feel more trendy
than original yet it’s another relevant
video that doesn’t back down from its
core message overall pure comedy will
likely stand up to father time as father
John relays a story that captures a
certain time and place a narrative with
no final ending I hate to say it but
each other’s always God thank Allah
t-shirt number 4 t-shirt migos mama told
me I never still work mama
7c accent color in modern pop culture
meiosis correlated more with the ATL
than anything else but that doesn’t mean
they’re not in touch with the outdoors
bucket cup or t-shirt directed by gaps
and migos ozone quavo the group were
trapped while dropping some trap music
for Mother Nature 99/5 I’m in Juba so
visually it’s a tight music video that
directly references 2015’s the revenant
using full fur outfits
I see mountaintops and scenery and
instead of riding horseback they opted
to go for the more current skidoo
overall t-shirt had us loving the
culture and served as a finely directed
complement to their other January 2017
video call casting
honey for loop on your wrist Patek 2501
fish points so is it a phenomenal dress
number three party monster the weekend
I knew she hasn’t moved down to
continuing on with early 2017 trends
this video touches on existential themes
while maintaining a neon retro color
palette given the stature of the weekend
in 2017 pop culture along with his
reported romance with Selena Gomez party
monster feels absolutely now love is
just too high a no-go that being said it
captures the weekends vibe as it’s got
something for both faded lovers and
lovers of faded filters and considering
it’s called party monster smell it makes
sense that it wouldn’t be a traditional
music video full of cliches instead it’s
a surrealistic and eerie experience oh
my god it’s on the bottom I’ll show you
how to flip a dollar number two I’m
better Missy Elliott featuring land PCM
Panem so please put up your name in my
bacon directed by Dave Myers and Missy
herself here’s a hip hop production that
is characteristically weird yeah yep and
in the fend okay Missy gentle Ximena so
as usual
Missy’s thread game is on point and the
futuristic look is both streamlined and
slick as the cherry on top though Missy
takes I’m better underwater where she
and the crew make waves with their move
the car days as buzzy Silva of video
like creaky so taking the buzz they be
handling them whistling let me buy
damaged
or a noted visual artist like Eliot the
complexity of I’m better can be easily
overlooked and it’s a video that offers
something new with each viewing most
importantly it’s nice to see that Missy
hasn’t lost any of that futuristic flair
but make you bust a Matar anything
anything like go get it before we unveil
our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions
[Music]
[Music]
and I wanna be like in one of them
number one Wyclef Jean young thug okay
my mind playing longer netmask alright
keep on not again
I rank when Ryan strata agreed to direct
this music video
it was probably expecting to meet the
actual artist but due to various
scheduling issues
young thug never arrived on set for
things not going to improvise one of the
more creative hip-hop videos you’ll ever
see damn you put a ball
I’m beginning to end our director
chronicles the original intent of Wyclef
Jean and what he managed to ultimately
wrangle together a bit snarky and with
good reason
as it’s an outrageous meta commentary
that young thug obviously approved for
release God is let’s focus on the music
and more emphasis on how you can
sometimes make lemonade when life gives
you lemons or in this case when young
thug goes AWOL and sends video snippets
of him eating Cheetos do you agree with
