You are presumably already well aware that today is 4/20, the weed-smokers' version of St. Patrick's Day. And it is no accident that Rihanna, our greatest public-figure libertine, chose today to release the video for "Needed Me," which might be the wooziest and the most hedonistic track from her woozy, hedonistic new album ANTI. The song, which DJ Mustard co-produced, was already one of the biggest tracks from ANTI, thanks in part for the "didn't they tell you that I was a savage? / Fuck your white horse and your carriage" lyric. Now that Rihanna has recruited Gummo/Spring Breakers auteur Harmony Korine to direct the video, expect it to get bigger still. As with Rihanna's recent videos for "Work" and "Kiss It Better," this one features way more pop-star boob that we might reasonably expect. It also has guns, motorcycles, skull masks, an extended strip-club scene, and a plotline that doesn't exactly match the song's whole sex-doesn't-mean-anything message. It's a fucking masterpiece. Watch it below.
