Did Mr. West fall asleep on Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls again? That's about all I get from the Lollipop Remix hangover that is Kanye's Auto-Soul debut, "Love Lockdown."
Okay. Maybe that's not all a smarty-art Negro can gather.
The video plays like a fucked up IKEA commercial that tells you where your furniture really comes from. Homeboy has visions of getting your love locked down, inspected, sold through the Middle Passage, inspected, sold to Captain Jackson and put to work in the Carolina tobacco fields.
Mind you--there ain't nann notta African in this video. He caught a bunch of Lion King understudies on their lunch break and convinced them to act an ass on camera. These niggas is runnin around with fades and Invisalign. Closest thing you might got to an African is the one dude from Cleveland or some shit.
Some of these young ladies got perms and Yaki. See now, they was already Dark & Lovely before the conquistadors. They ain't need Lark Vorhees or Stacey Dash on the side of a no-lye relaxer box to tell them so. There's no Yaki in ancient African society. I don't know if they was doin the 100% Human Hair thing or what, but I'm pretty sure there was no Kim's Beauty Supply back then.

Kanye's "Billy Ocean-ass" (LMAO) was wrong for this entire song. Please give T-Pain his vocoder back and write some rhymes boy....
