Video is dope tbh
The whole Eden/demonic angle really adds to it... Especially considering how homophobic black culture in this country is and how many religious conspiracy theories there are about the illuminati using hollywood and hip hop to push a gay agenda.... This video just completely leans into that. Instead of the approach of "my gay marriage is the same as your straight marriage" it's just an open endorsement of subversion... decadence... hedonism... All of which are intrinsic aspects of the kind of materialistic and status obsessed world view that is so pervasive in hip hop.
