Wildest Dreams by Taylor Swift. Yes guys it out! Its been only three days and has grossed over 16 million views! Ohh boy! That’s a lot!
I personally have watched video, and what I can honestly say is that the music is really good, beautiful but very sad lyrics (just the way I like it), and lots of kissing I mean tongue on tongue lol, what do I know I wasn’t there…
And you are probably wondering why you are hearing this now, well don’t announced a new music video at an award show where Miley wears naked clothes and fights with Nicki, Justin cries and kanye announces his run for president, because your announcement will definitely be belittled.
The story is of two 1950’s-era movie stars, played by Swift and Gran Torino actor Scott Eastwood son of the famous Clint Eastwood, the video for Wildest Dreams, which was revealed during the MTV VMA Awards coverage on Sunday, has a mainly white cast and revolves around two 1950s-era movie stars but the problem is to some certain people the video is racist! As a full pledge born and bred Nigerian who has experienced racism, I clearly do not have much say on this. This is the first time that Taylor Swift is been given the “heat” massively and the fact is that there were only two black actors, who play soldiers, and they appear in the background. The mock film crew were white.
But the video director Joseph Khan insists the video is a ‘love story’ and has no political agenda. But you know music fans and people of nowadays everyone has the right to express themselves, and in some countries majority carries the vote. The fans have rushed to Twitter to describe it as ‘colonial garbage’. (Harsh?)
The footage was also also slammed by a number of editorials.
NPR’s Viviane Rutabingwa, who has an African heritage, said: ‘We are shocked to think that in 2015, Taylor Swift, her record label and her video production group would think it was OK to film a video that presents a glamorous version of the white colonial fantasy of Africa.’
She added: ‘Swift’s music is entertaining for many. She should absolutely be able to use any location as a backdrop. But she packages our continent as the backdrop for her romantic songs devoid of any African person or storyline, and she sets the video in a time when the people depicted by Swift and her co-stars killed, dehumanized and traumatized millions of Africans.
‘That is beyond problematic.’
The Daily Dot’s Nico Lang wrote: ‘An homage to a love triangle about white colonialists is going to present some, uh, challenges to an artist who just wants to make a three-minute music video to put on her VEVO page – and Taylor Swift found that out the hard way.
‘Even the most casual observer would have noticed that – for a clip that’s set in Africa – it’s about as white as a Sunday morning farmer’s market.
‘The video wants to have its old-school Hollywood romance but ends up eating some old-school Hollywood racism, too.’
As for the music is nice, but the director should have worked on his balancing skills.
