Solange’s Twitter Followers Really Came Through With Her Kanye West Video Request
The Wiz got an 808s & Heartbreak makeover on social media.
Solange was on Twitter last night, April 5, when she put out a slightly unusual request. "Can somebody make a video collage of the bad news scene from The Wiz, to Kanyes "Bad News" and send it to me please?" she tweeted. Fans were soon scrambling to take the 808s & Heartbreaks tune and stick it together with the visuals from the 1978 musical starring Diana Ross and Richard Pryor.
Twitter user @xmariahnicole was the first to get a response to her video, which really does get good around the 39 second mark.
Later on other users, such as @TheRonaLisa, delivered a similar version with slightly better audio.
Solange was clearly enjoying a relaxing evening online, idly putting herself forward to work on Real Housewives while she waited for her Kanye/Wiz collage.
