What's That Vid Update

The much anticipated video from my favourite songstress Alicia Keys is HERE. She has pushed the envelope from the usual and mundane, in every sense of the word. The video for "Unthinkable" is a breath of fresh air from the overrated trash we see on a daily with scantily clad women, booty shaking, pole dancing and money throwing that is flooding the contemporary music industry.

Ms. Keys has tapped into one of the most sensitive topics which has faced human nature for centuries to bring a message which is relevant yet timeless. Co starring in the video is "One Tree Hill" actor Chad Michael Murray, her Caucasian love interest that was discouraged from getting involved with her due to their difference in race. What strikes me about this video is the transitions from one time period set in the 50's to that of modern day America, yet the same mindset and racist mentality is constant. One must admit it has a storyline which leaves you wondering what will happen next...a great opportunity for another video from her album "  The Element of Freedom"  .

A. Keys has done it again people...she has brought her wholesomeness to the table and it has paid off well. Stay true to your music Alicia Keys and you will always have me as a fan.

Peep at the video below:
