Strawberry Premiere: Otis

Jay-Z & Kanye West - Otis

Is it just me or does this video just SCREAM fun? From the opening scene we see the two artist walking toward a Maybach and next thing you know, BOOM! they destroy it.

The video was pretty simple no extra effects or random scenes of the rappers shopping as they mention in their lyrics. However I must say there are numerous messages in this video.

Message 1: America is in Debt
The fact that part of the video had a HUGE American flag in the background while the two roled around in the Maybach they recently tore apart shows that America is in trouble. Our country can't afford to throw away $300,000 (the running price of most Maybachs) yet these two men do it freely without regret. I also find it quite interesting yet ironic how this video drops after President Obama announced America's current financial situation. Illuminati anyone? LOL

Message 2: Black Men can be successful LEGALLY!
Now we all know Jay-Z's past with drug dealing and Kanye's hard knocked life; however now these two men can proudly hold they're heads high and say they are some of the richest men in the world. LITERALLY. FORBES magazine named Kanye West #3 with $16 Million on the top 20 earners of 2011 in Hip Hop list so far and Jay-Z #1 with $37 million.

Message 3: Help others in need
At the end of the video, a message comes on the screen that reads "The vehicle used in this visual will be offered up for auction. Proceeds will be donated towards the east African drought disaster."
It's about time somebody took a stand and say the world needs help. Not just the video, but the entire Watch the Throne album speaks of both fortune and misfortune of blacks both in America and their homelands of Africa. Somalia is in need of our help.

Whatever your take on the video, at the end of the day, the visual was a nice take with the audio. Purchase Watch the Throne now.
