Rita G, a Playboy Playmate from Houston, Texas, stars in the video for West's new single and is seen beating the rapper while he is tied up in the trunk of a car.
She defends Kanye by saying that this was an expertly planned scene that West had made, to ensure it was thought provoking.
"It's so funny. This video will go over a lot of people's heads - and it's supposed to. I think it's great that it does. Because Kanye is just on another level; he's ahead of his time, in a sense." She tells MTV.
In other news…
"So all the third-graders who come home from school and want to watch videos and snap their fingers and all that, they're probably gonna think, 'That video is wack, but that chick got a fat ass.'
"And that's fine. But people in higher positions, they're gonna see something different. They're gonna get it, people who are thinkers."

corrrection rita u dont have to be in da 3rd grade to know dat da chick in da video HAS A FAT ASS LOL... there's no thought process to it... maybe im just not a "thinker" lol
hahahahahahha silly ass nigga
I liked the video I still dont get it yet but its different.
Yall wasn't there when the Dagod gave a good explanation. It made since
2 wordz
phat ass
what is there to think about a chick wit a fat ass walks around half naked and kills a guy in a trunk wit a shovel.
LMAO. That's what I was thinking too. I didn't look for some kinda hidden meaning for that.
wow her beatin him is bc Kanye cheatin on her with another girl and was caught by the "flashing lights" so if u listen to the chorus u get the video. "as i recall i know u love to show off, but i never though that you would take it this far, what do i know."
I got a Master's Degree and the only thing I could get out of the video is that she's got a fat ass and he's get beat down with a shovel. Maybe I'm not abstract enough.
i hear u... im well educated and thats all i see 2
He Coulda Went Like 3 or 4 Different Ways Wit This Video...The Lyrics...Made It Sound Like A Club Banger...At The Same Time It Coulda Been Like A Crazy Ex Type Of Thing...But I Feel The Video Coulda Had More 2 It...The Song Is Still FIRE Tho
hiphop is sick of kanye's cheating so she throws all the glamorous shit away or better yet burns it kisses his ass goodbye and kills him........well atleast thats how i took it! HIP HOP GOT A PHAT ASS!
lol i aint seen the video yet but 4rm wat yall sayin all ahma get out of is..."DAM SHE THICK AS FUCK!"
cool dude
That must be why 90% of the new jack producers in the game try to duplicate his sound.
Tech fuckin 9? Iz you for real dude?
Im sorry I replied to your comment.
It is clear that you are a member of tech 9 management team.
wat the fuck?? u really are trippin traviz1990 u must be still stuck in 1990 er sumshit
Look at everybody in the rap game right now. They all want Kanye to do a beat for them and maybe even drop a verse or hook. I ain't no Kayne fan, but you gotta give the nigga respect, he doin big things that muthafuckas like Tech 9 sit back and dream bout doin.
na i got to agree wit travis... maybe not on the tech n9ne thing, eventhough i used to fuck wit tech but havent really heard shit lately so i cant see he ahead of his time, but Kanye, yea, he makes tight beats, his lyrics are really nothing special and he is a whiny lil bitch and I CANT STAND that about him... Everytime he dont win he cries... how ignorant is it to jump on stage and grab an award and say why u shoulda won? That is a slap in the face to the whole music industry... he really dropped down a few notches in my book for pullin that shit... his head gettin way to big he think he can do whatever he want and that shit gonna blow up in his face soon just watch... ppl will get tired of kanye... I do like how he keeps it real tho... he tells shit like it is and he dont lie bout himself to make himself more marketable and thats cool... but he still an ignorant whiny lil bitch and no1 can argue that
i was done when kanye jumped on stage and said he deserved the video of the year award for 'Touch the Sky' that was straight cut up
i think the video is like a 3-part series. and we're seeing the last one.
and judging by the song, i think she catches him cheating as killaprez
said, and kills him.
Man lemme go peep this video out. SCREAM AT ME, 1.
Yea that thang(Tha Azz) sit up like a trucc cuzzin. Slap that muthafucca in ovadrive.. SCREAM AT ME,1.
yea maybe its the way killaprez said it never thought of it like that to busy watchin her ass and titties lol o well
she said " but that chick got a fat ass.' damn right
yo she a idiot she gonna back ye coz he paid her for 1 she is publicity hungry 2 i read on this is 50 chick is selling worn panties on her web page lmao
Its like a couple people above me said. He cheated on his girl, lied about it, and got caught.
He never thought that that she would take things that far, but she took it there and killed him.
I got the video as soon as I seen it, but I did think the whole time, damn! This chick got a phat ass and tigobitties.
maybe chicki as an obsessive, deranged fan (with a phat ass)..kinda like dude that shot john lennon
so dude that shot Mr lennon had a fat ass?......smh x 1000
i kind of agree the first thing i saw was her hot body then
while watching the video you could see the video match the song,
about a fed up bitch thats bout to kill her dude.
so yeah i see her point
and also,........
the reason she was wearing what she was is so people could watch the video
I WASNT FEELING THE VIDEO TO MUCH BUT HER ASS WAS FAT AND I LIKE THAT SONG BUT NOT THE VIDEO KANYE IS MORE CREATIVE THEN THAT
I feelin the vid. It's got a message though:
Just cause a chick fine as hell don't mean she ain't crazy.
simply said theres no direction in the video corresponding to the song title "Flashing lights" I thought the shit was about the papa razzi...whatever its kanyes worst video and imma kanye fan...music is to be thought provoking but when its going over EVERYBODIES head that shit dont make it hot
mu'fuckaz need 2 open there minds a lil' bit more...theres more here than t&a (which is nice, don't get me wrong)...but if u listen 2 the song the video makes perfect sense...he was off doin' his thang wit other women and playin' her 2 the side ("i get a call like where are you yeezy"), lied about it and got caught by the paparazzi("damn these niggaz got me")...he tried 2 apologize when she found out ("i know i was foul bay bay") but it was too late cuz the bitch was crazy and she killed him ("i never thought that u would take it this far")...hey i could be wrong but that shit is on point...Ye over niggaz heads...Biz
...oh and if u haven't yet, peep the flashing light remix by colin munroe...shit is fire
These comments are sad, the vids not that complicated. Listen to the song, watch that shit and read between the lines. Stop being stupid people... Stupid's not cool.
That chick has been around for a long fucking time....
I think the video is on point - especially with that STALLION in it.
HAHA.
Bread winning STALLION!!!!!!
lol - no doubt....this video pushes the envelope the way Prodigy's (not from Mobb Deep) "Smack my bitch up" did. That's one sick ass video.
She did have a fat ass and im not in third grade and i dont snap my fingers. but i dont get the video
It's Mr. West being Mr. West.... More controversial shit added to his resume` which is pro-longing his career. If you can think out the box, it is amongst the paths of Bobby Brown Marshall ahhhh Ron Artest Dennis Rodman etc... I hope you catch my drift, so by 2010 "God Willing" we all will see this on VH1! First 10yrs of 2000 Hilary runs New York Terminator runs California, their maybe be the first man instead of the first lady or the first colored man in the white house so to speak! As we all remember TuPac Biggie Big L and others yrs after they parish Mr. West is aiming for that goal as well, not as a gangster drug dealer thug rapper but on that fresh Hip-Hop tip a level where Common aka Commonsense has been for yrs just unaccredited "til recently" also watch out for Dante Smith aka Mos Def as Mr. West produces his album should be dropping put late this yr true words from multiple A&R's in LA...
PS: I wish cali had good thick like that? "on a consistent basis"
The chick is hot, moms is thick as hell.
you have to just sit and think..kanye cheats on his girl.."i never thought she wuld take it this far"...and she beats him with a shevel becuase "she dont believe in SHOOTING stars"....and he was caught by the papparazzi.."damn these niggas got me, i hate these niggas more than the nazi"...just gotta think a little folks
thank u...somebody besides me go it
hahaha by time someone kills him 4 crying like a lil bitch all the time
The video was one thing..ORIGINAL. Even if people dont get the video( I always thought that some videos were ment to be open-ended on purpose) they have to appreciate the work itself. The video meshes well with the lyrics. And for my dude reppin the 816(Kansas City!!!!) Tech Ni9e was ill back in like 2000-2001, but he done fell off...btu he did come with that Pscycho Bitch song..."Got my Lights turned off/But I dont know how". Kanye and Common are always giving fans goood videos that give some thought to them.
yea its actually common sense
HAHAHAHHA...AIGHT CHECK IT OUT...THIS VIDEO GOT EVERY ONE THINK'N BOUT IT...LOOKA HERE..THATS WHAT KANYE IS TRY'N TO SAY.. PEOPLE WILL DIGG AND DIG AND DIG TILL THEY FIND 'NOTHING' .. AND THEY'LL STILL DIG..HAHA..YOU AINT GOTTA BE A WELL EDUCATED PERSON, NOR A 3RD GRADER..YOU GOTTA BE AN ENTREPRENEUR, YOU MIGHT ASK WHAT THAT HAS TO DO WITH ANYTHING, WELL..CHECK IT OUT
CASUE I KNOW WHAT HE THINK'N..DONT YOU SEE IT?
OHH WAIT, YALL DONT.. HAHA..
1
i mean...i know theres a message to it...its too "out there" not to have one..but in the meantime until it comes to me...imma keep watchin that girls ass...
thats real
This video isn't apart of an trilogy of videos. This is the first, last and only video for "Flashing Lights". There are two other versions of the music videos but Kanye left them on the cutting room floor.
Plus if you carefully listen to the song then you would easily be able to understand what the video is about. "Flashing Lights" itself is about Kanye cheating on his girl but he got caught up by the paparazzi (1st verse) then he pleads with his girl because she "can't Rome without Caesar". The video picks up the aftermath of the relationship fallout.
"As I recall, I know you love to show off but I never thought I that I would take it this far"- Dwele (Flashing Lights)
exactly. lol thee meaning is obvious if u listen to the lyrics
listen to the lrycs of the song...hes apologizing for doin some chick wrong but she takes it too far
sorry rita g, but your bigg batty was just the start and finish of the video for me
I was too busy jerkin off to notice
lmao wow
How can he expect you to find the hidden meaning to the video when you have a dime like that in the video? Need a lil less eye candy if that ain't what you want viewers gettin out of it.
LOL yea she got a big ass booty; at my death id like to see that ass too
In a battle of the ass, who would beat. Rita G or Cherokee?
The video was a let down.
^^^^^^^^ i agree^^^^^^. he coulda killed. the video to this song coulda took his career ten times higher.(Rita G iz to fine)he has to put out another one. its kinda like when beyonce drop de ja vu. that video made no since. Kanye give us A Mo-VIE
One Love.
hahah
this is funny
rita g is bangin
Rita G you are sexy as fuck....but no one cares what you have to say...by the way i loved the video and very glad kanye didnt make it a typical club vid
so true
That girl's body is ridiculous. And yes, the video did go over my head, I didn't get it at all. For such a fun song, why such a dark ending. I really couldn't make any sense out of it. Someone enlighten me.
I didnt really think this video was so thought provoking either...Kanye will try to convince u sometimes his lines ,or videos are better than they really are....I mean I liked the Evil Kenevil video better than that...and that song concept was on Outkast joint..."hollywood divorce" and Jays last release...the one with Beyonce on the hook..I think its called "Lights, Action, Hollywood".....I'll take it back to Common "I used to Love her"...basically the hip hop gets used and abused by the masses....but she do got a...lol
Kayne needs her in all his videos
kanye a whiny lil bitch
hows a whiny lil bitch gonna call another nigga a whiny lil bitch?
Scrill, stop hatin. You sound like you drink Hatorade by the gallon. Who exactly do you like in hip hop?? Not Ye, not Jay, probably not Nas, oh wait...Soulja Boy!!! Thats right youre probably like the dudes fan club president.
scrill is right kanye is a whiny bitch
WeEzY ALL day
WeEzY ALL day
Did I just read that Lil Flop, I mean Flip is one of your favorite mc's???? Seriously I understand everything now. You deserve to get dissed now.
Think about this she has that nice car, She has that nice fur... now the lyrics say she belives in shoes and cars and then he goes on to say coutoure from teh stores dept.... then she burns the shit which he probably bought for her ...then he goes on to say she in the mirror dancing so sleezy...now i know she probably wasnt dancing in that fur and those pants (that he prob bought) so im figuring thats why she had the lingere on... then he says he got a call like where are you Yeezy he hit her with the 'Oeur de Whopee' ...which is lie so im figuring he was lying to her about who he was with and where at ... the he says till i got flashed by the paparzia... then she probably ended up seeing that shit somwhere (like freshsobriety.blogspot.com) she flipped waited for him to get home stuffed him in the trunk put her fur and jeans on the opened the trunk he didnt think that cheating on her was going to take it that far like he said in the song and she straight up off him like some frank lucas american gangster shit
the video hot for the simple fact that its so different from any other hip hop video out right now and probably for the past 5 (give or take) years...and the girl in this video is way better than cherokee, cause rita is fat in all the RIGHT places...i dont know if you seen cherokee lately but she is deffinitely eating better from that porno money cause that gut is catching up to that ass
