I doubt he was the prettiest man they could find to just stand around shirtless. Now that the song is over, I don't really understand why the Game was there. Or maybe it's actually a screensaver circa 2003.ġ3.
This video is taking place inside of a lava lamp. Is she smoking a mercury cigarette? If there's one way to make cigarettes worse for you, that would be it.ġ2. Okay I think I finally get it. I don't really get what the rabbit motif is about, but it's still cool.ġ1. I doubt that Nicki Minaj's original artistic vision (or whoever directed the video) included a slow-motion shot of the Beats logo.ġ0. After seeing all of this intricate 3D animation, it's pretty jarring and sort of funny to return to the choppy rabbit animation.

If it's not coming from him, it's most likely poisonous gas, which he should be more concerned about than he appears to be.Ĥ. Probably mint or something.ģ. I have no idea what that purple stuff coming out of the Game's back is, but he should get it checked out, because that doesn't happen to normal people. They were all white, after all, and I don't even know if they make white Pez, or what flavor that would even be.
Was that rabbit supposed to be catching the Pez? Or maybe those are the titular pills. Her verse on Kanye West's "Monster" was the best thing about My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but she's a pretty good singer, too.Ģ.
