Revealed: John Legend video treatment

So basically, right, we get loads of hot chicks to take their clothes off and shoot it on grainy old film stock so we can say it's "art".

NSFW, obviously.

John Legend - Who Do We Think We Are?

On a serious note, this video is totally unacceptable from a mainstream artist in 2013. It's like a James Bond title sequence without the subtlety. The song is a critique of meaningless decadence and empty sexuality, so I really don't know why the video celebrates it. Exploitative and demeaning and just a little bit sad.

You can do better, John.
