Taking Back the Media

Kanye West’s OFFICIAL video for “Monster.” The video opens with “the following content is in no way to be interpreted as misogynistic or negative towards any group of people. It is an art piece and it shall be taken as such.” But let’s be honest here, HOW THE FUCK AM I NOT SUPPOSED TO INTEPRET THIS PIECE OF ART AS MISOGYNISTIC OH GREAT KANYESUS?! The only female featured in the song is miss Nicki Minaj. She is depicted as torturing and whipping herself/her double. And just so you know this video is the toned down version of the “Monster” video that leaked and was banned from most music stations five months ago. Directed by Jake Nava.
