Shes Baaaaaack!
Everyone has been going on about how controversial the video for 'Window Seat' is.. the fact that she strips down.
True it is a good twist, but the message behind the video itself is so much stronger and meaningful then a bit of Booootaay.
In the beginning of the the Video, a radio clip is used that is very similar to the radio transcript that was aired as JFK reached the same location to where Erykah filmed her video.
Mz Badu Walks through the streets of Dallas, going down the exact route that JFA walked through before being murdered. As she walks down the street she begins to remove items of clothing before she ends up naked at the same spot where JFK was assassinated, where she is then shot in the head.
The video was shot with a hidden camera so apparently people didn't know she was filming anything, and if anything they thought she was a random lady losing the plot.
The video was shot on the 13th March 2010 with no pre-warning to the public.
So I would definitely suggest everyone watching it a couple of times:
First time: To see the hype of Erykah's Booty! LOL!
Second time: Really take in the lyrics and the concept of the video!
