Frank Ocean - Pyramids (Official Video)

It is about time Frank Ocean releases a video for Channel Orange. I was hoping it would be Sweet Life or Pink Matter, maybe even Bad Religion. However, it ended up being Pyramids. It is a long video and in classic Frank style he does not lip sync, he starts off shooting up a bar (Pink Matter intro... syke) He then hops onto a motorcycle and the next thing we know he is in a desert. With trailing white lines following him, I guess to symbolize that he is high.

Then boooooom he is the strip club and we are introduced to a couple of Cleopatras, some of them are almost naked. Dancing on poles, dancing for dirty old white & Asian men. Then cut in and out of strip club and the desert highway scene. Then the last section is a John Mayer guitar solo with an obviously high Frank just starring at him.

At the end of the solo Frank falls back on to the ground and then raises from the desert floor, his face covered in dust. He starts walking his motorcycle comes into focus, he walks past it and onto the desert road with the 'End' or outro from Channel Orange playing in the background. A very interesting video to say the least.
