Kanye West (Ft. Vic Mensa & Sia) • "Wolves"


Directed by Steven Klein // Words by Allen Hotchkiss


Kanye has just surprised us with an incredible video for Wolves that features fellow Chicagoan Vic Mensa & female vocalist Sia. Directed by Steven Klein, this video seems to be a heavy endorsement of Balmain, providing Kanye a platform to showcase his fashion prowess with some of the most recognizable models in the world. Given the context of the song, the video eventually focuses on Yeezy and Kim Kardashian, crying as they symbolize the struggle between club life and reality. 

We should know the track from Life of Pablo, produced by Cashmere Cat and Sinjin Hawke, but the video brings the whole song to life in a way that’s hard to put into words. All in all, it’s beautifully shot and it artfully discusses a legitimate struggle between keeping an intimate relationship while living in a materialistic club environment.

Although it may not be as scandalous as his Famous video proved to be, this is definitely a finished product worth watching. Watch the video for Wolves above!
