Of course Kanye went hard on this track. It's my favorite song on his album-- though it is full of ego, bravado and brag-swag that 'Ye is most commonly known for... This record, (despite all that) goes HARD. Kanye threw Hype Williams on this-- and what a great choice. It reminds me of the Mary J. Blige "Everything" video he did back in the day....Full of beautiful tropical imagery. Throwing Jeezy in the mix most definitely brought an element of edge that worked well with the scenes. 
I was JUST telling someone the other day how after I saw the new DAY 26 video with the predictable beach-scene-in-front-of-expensive-rented-car-with-pretty-light-skinned-girls-dancing-around-them made me shake my head. Why have music videos in hip-hop and r n' b become so boring, predictable and mundane? It's not everyone-- there are a few that are still innovative with it. And Kanye is definitely one. Keep challenging your audience, and they come back for more! It IS pretty amazing 'Ye-- isn't it. WATCH:

I agree, but with Day 26, their whole image is recycled. Ppl can say what they want about Kanye, but at least he likes to take risks. Sometimes they pay off, other times they look lame, but its always worth it to think outside the box.
