It is a bit pathetic that black hip hop artists seem to promote the fetishization of black women in order to have a captivating video but this Japanese artist was not gyrating or debasing herself and the entire video was enthralling to watch....
I hope all the budding video girls out there watch and learn....watch and learn...
Thanks for commenting, Lisa. I watched it again after reading your comment... and I think what's compelling, to me, is a kind of Grace Jones vibe... the sculpture of her face, the stylistic coldness, on top of the groove.
she's my future ex-wife... in the year 2012 she'll bear my two children, beautiful Mexicanese bebes, and divorce me because of my airplane glue sniffing habit...
Her name is Hime (meaning "Princess"), in case you're interested.
