I think I’m going through one of those phases right now (Not sure if it’s good or bad yet). For the past several days, all I’ve listened to is N.E.R.D. and I have this idea I feel I either stole from someone on Twitter or on here that there should more videos to songs there isn’t videos to. Like, I wished there was a visuals to Baby Doll (Maybe cause it’s so relevant), The Way She Dances, and a couple other ones. I think I have some semi okay cool concepts if I was to do that. Like, I’d direct music videos to those songs without visual aids. You know, make use to my Nikon I barely use.
[While I’m at it, here’s my favorite N.E.R.D songs I forced myself to make, top five have asterisks; Subject to Change, by the way]
But I be thinking, wouldn’t it be so cool if they made some high school-esque movie regarding most of their songs? I mean, I believe they make songs for us, the crop of folk in college now, young adults for when we was in high school and stuff (Really young and stupid); they still make music for our audience now, but we still listen to their older songs — perhaps more — like we’re still going through puberty.
Make a movie/film, similar to how KanYe did Runaway, about typical high school/teenage stories, basically revolving around their songs. For Example: Backseat Love is about sex with your first love in your first car; Drill Sergeant, rebelling against authority; Bobby James tackling social issues and being, uh, well… Young and assed out. But wouldn’t that be cool? Maybe it’s just me. But instead of doing a new album (Cause Nothing wasn’t as good as the first three, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the uh, “decline” continues) do this idea before Skateboard P hit the big Four-Zero — though he look my age.
