Jack White has unveiled “Freedom at 21,” the third video from his universally acclaimed debut record Blunderbuss (Third Man/Columbia).
Directed by Hype Williams, whose trailblazing 1990s work with 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G. and Missy Elliott defined the modern hip hop visual aesthetic–and whose more recent clips for Kanye West and Nicki Minaj expanded it that much further–“Freedom at 21” is now live at VEVO: http://smarturl.it/freedomat21video.
For his first interpretation of a Jack White song, Williams infuses his signature style with elements of classic American Grindhouse–the result being a clip that defies and smashes the conventions and boundaries of both the hip hop and rock video worlds.
For those who want to hear “Freedom at 21” played live, Jack White and his Peacocks and Buzzards continue to tour the world. See them here:
