But beyond that, there's enough aural and aesthetic difference for the comparisons to end there and the two can exist solidly in their own lanes.

I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing and, after reading Nas's letter to his 14-year-old self with the note that the song is about a guy he met last summer, I don't think he does either. Instead, I want to give appropriate language to the instant impact this video is sure to have on both the viewers and the industry, putting to rest any ideas that Nas is just a one trick pony.Ĭalling it out immediately, because of the scarcity of public-facing Black queer men in music, the presence of this song will draw direct comparisons to Frank Ocean's channel | Orange release from 2012. I won't go over all of the dope little nuances and easter eggs Nas X packed into three minutes and ten seconds, but Mikelle Street did and you should definitely go read about them. Then, when I randomly couldn't sleep at 6am later that morning (symptoms of surviving a pandemic), I rolled over and watched it some more. ***Title inspiration taken from Hassan Sayyed watched the Montero (Call Me By Your Name) video no less than 5 consecutive times when it dropped at midnight Friday March 26.
