If you’ve been looking for something with a little more dramatic flair, today’s MV mini-review round-up is perfect for you. Each video in this batch has a narrative on display with the principal actors flexing some of their emotional chops. Sometimes, even the artists themselves are front and center. There’s a lot to like here, so settle down and enjoy.
Nicole Scherzinger – “Run”
+It’s one of the simplest songs off her latest album, and one of the best; hauntingly beautiful
-I got nothing negative to say
re:plus x Sam Ock – “Yourside”
+We already knew RP x SO is a winning combo, and that hasn’t changed
-I like the video, except for the fact that it appears to have been run through the Kelvin instagram filter
Jhene Aiko – “Spotless Mind”
+I liked this one, both video and song, a lot.
-Nothing wrong with this release, but Traphik has skewed the way I view Jhene videos
David Choi – “All I Need”
+Slo-mo effects are on point
-Not really a knock, but this heavily reminded me of this video at times
Honey Cocaine – “Side Bitch”
+I can appreciate how they tied this to a past video
-N bomb. By far the most egregious offense
P. Keys – “Baggage”
+One of PK’s most radio ready songs to date
-All in all, this video ain’t too different from this one
Mark Agustin – “Don’t Let Go”
+MA’s epic, synth heavy songs tend to be a refreshing change of pace
-Ugh… distorted aspect ratios are a huge pet peeve of mine
Steve Aoki x Moxie Raia – “I Love It When You Cry”
+Crap, this song is catchy
-Steve REALLY loves these sci-fi esque videos. I kind of dread the day the theme gets played out
ARCHIS – “Bittersweet”
+This is some of the best I’ve heard from Dia post The Voice
-Huh? I’m confused. What just happened?
Hana Kim – “Heaven Sees Me”
+Moving and poetic
-But it’s all to battle a terrible plight of humanity – Human Trafficking – learn more here.
