By some serendipitous twist of fate, we ended up checking John Legend's new clip for "Green Light" on MTV only a few minutes after his triumphant DNC performance. Talk about highs and lows. Even with a too-brief shot of Andre 3K strutting inside a martini glass, Legend's buppie-ed out liquor commercial music video is one of the more uninspired clips to hit in a minute, a party video minus the party, serious ZZZZZs. Which is a shame, because the song is an honest jam (again, praise due to Three Stacks. Medusa? Robin Givens? Style-freein? This is why we love you!). Fortunately the UK's Afroganic crew come through in the nick of time with this one-drop reggae re-imagining. Give it a listen, and all that khaki colored grossness just drifts away...and if that doesn't work, there's always Sesame Street.
