Kendrick Lamar & SZA Release Their “Luther” Video
Ahead of their Grand National Tour, Kendrick Lamar and SZA release the long-awaited music video for their hit collaboration, “Luther”.
Directed by Karena Evans, the striking visuals find the two romancing their individual significant other at a luxury hotel. Kendrick can be seen canoodling with his woman from their suite to an empty eatery, while SZA snuggles with her man in their room. The superstars are caught briefly together on a bench before the clip segues into an extended scene with the record’s sample, “If This World Were Mine” by Cheryl Lynn and Luther Vandross playing.
The fan-favorite, which they performed at Super Bowl LIX this past February, currently sits at No. 1 on the Billboard 100 charts for its seventh week. It is lifted off Kendrick Lamar’s chart-topping and Grammy-winning album, GNX.
I understand that you will not agree. Even if I see the innovations that are in this piece, almost as if they wanted to create something extraordinary, a work of art, overall I am not completely convinced. I feel a bit “old school” air, almost heavy at times, although the truly remarkable thing is the mixing of the voices and how they feel, truly exceptional.
