UPDATE: After the leak of the “unedited” product and Twitter rant, Kanye West drops the final version of his latest single “Black Skinhead“. The “Yeezus” cut gets a dark visual with plenty of symbolic imagery.
The Nick Knight directed clip is filled with random CGI imagery that is meant to be symbolic.
Although a powerful track, the visuals look a little low-budget.

UPDATE: It turns out that the video for “Black Skinhead” wasn’t supposed to be out already. Yesterday’s video was leaked and Kanye is not happy about it.
He took to twitter to say:
The BLKKK SKKKN HD video that leaked yesterday was not the official version.

Me and Nick Knight have been working on this video for 5 months and for creatives it’s heartbreaking when something like this happens. — KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) July 9, 2013
The final version will be ready within the next week. — KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) July 9, 2013
So any website that may have the unapproved / unfinished ruff. I ask you to please take it down.

Allow me and Nick to give the world what we’ve been losing sleep over.

…and then finally Kanye had one last parting shot:
And to who ever leaked the video… FUK YOU!
