Nicki Minaj – “Lookin Ass Nigga” Video
If there was any doubt that Nabil is the greatest artist currently working in the medium of music-video, let’s put that to bed. Nabil’s new video for Nicki Minaj’s sneering put-down “Lookin Ass Nigga” marries K-pop excess to vast Anton Corbijn-style lonely desert minimalism and diamond-dipped Hype Williams fetishism, and it is amazing. It’s just Nicki in the desert, mostly alone, bringing along a case full of ridiculously revealing outfits and a couple of assault rifles. But that is more than enough to burn your ocular cavities. Watch it below.
“Lookin Ass Nigga” will appear on the Cash Money compilation Rise Of An Empire, out 3/11, and maybe also on the forthcoming Nicki album The Pink Print.
