New Kanye West video: ‘Welcome to Heartbreak’
Kanye’s new video for “Welcome to Heartbreak”, off the magnetic “808s and Heartbreak“, is quite the spectacle for eyes. What makes it really interesting is the strange depixelation technique, very common in low quality .avi movies.
Sadly, though, it seems there was an indie video which sparked terrible resemblance to the one from bellow, released one week ago. Consequently, Kanye’s ego took over and decided to have the video taken down, as hear on Kanye’s blog. [via Stereogum]
This is not the next single, “Amazing” is the next single.
This is the video we’ve been working on for the last month.
We know there is another video out there using the same technique so we were forced to drop it now.

Kanye didn’t have the video taken down, it’s still on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LG39Wp7OzQ&fmt=22) and vimeo (http://vimeo.com/3139412) and pitchfork, and dailymotion, and many others. He was just pissed because the peeps that he borrowed the glitching from made a video before he did, and so he dropped his shit early…
