I really don't know about this video. I don't think Spike Jonze has it anymore. It seems more like a very lame attempt to be "controversial" but comes across as rather self-pretentious and boring. Not to mention actually very tame by todays standards.
This kind of music video would probably be ground breaking in 1991, and only if it was the first "controversial" or "groundbreaking" video of it's time, but to me it just comes across as quite a lame attempt to stir things up.
On the other hand, though.... Nice song. While I'm not a big fan of Kanye, I do have to say that at least the song is quite nice. I watched it all the way through, twice, just to listen to the song.
