Two controversial new videos on the subject of male-female relationships
Okay, the title might be slightly over the top, but the bottom line of the whole story about Tyler, The Creator’s second video “She” and Kanye West’s as always, very colourful accompaniment to his new single “Monster”, is that both artists are currently being accused of misogyny.
Tyler’s story goes back to his lyrics and Tweets and the first highlight came in the form of an open letter from Sara (one of the sisters of Sara and Tegan) and his prompt response on Twitter. With the new video for “She”, directed once again by Wolf Gang, they might not really be throwing oil onto the fire, but they’re not defusing the conflict either.
All we can say for sure is that the track featuring Frank Ocean is superb.
