Description: A look into the filmmaking of Michael Jackson and Kanye West. From Michael Jackson's "Thriller" to Kanye's "Runaway," these two artists are masters of the music video. Their excellence in the craft is a testament to their passion for filmmaking... drawing from collaborations with Scorcese, Copolla, Spike Jonze, Steve McQueen and many more. Take a look as I break down their visual journey. When Kanye and Jay Z dropped Watch The Throne, some audiences were left scratching their heads at the gaudy "luxury rap" that seemed to be such a far cry from their earlier work. In this video essay, I take a more unconventional approach in the narrative by allowing their words and music to tell the story of what it means to be young, black and rich in America. Some of the language is very harsh, but as a black man and as a creative, it has been a burden that I have carried and a message that I have wanted to tell. It doesn't end with Kanye and Jay's words. The fight lives on outside the music, in everyday culture, worldwide, all colors and creeds.
