Directed by Yonie
This track was one of my personal favorite G.O.O.D. Friday-slash-My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy cuts (it also helped that the producer of said track, Bink! is one of my favorites as well). Major props to aspiring director Yonie for his visual interpretation of the song, and props to The Smoking Section for spotlighting it first.

^^^ basically. the first girl is a thief/badass (or, for the sake of this song, she’s a devil) and she stole the other girl’s dress.
Devil in a New Dress.
this was really great
great story
great visuals
but hmm cndnt help but notice the “darker” girl broke into the house of the “ligther” girl…other than that it was excellent i just think theres enuff rnb/hiphop images of darker ppl doing negative things lol. dnt get offended its just my opinion.
ooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh hence the name, Devil in a New Dress.
man i prolly would got this if i didnt just wake up n slept for more then 3 hours
shit was actually really dope! whatever happened to that monster video we were sampled like a month ago?
@BillyClint hahaha co-sign
^yh i wondered that too hopefully in the new year
but kanye does seem to have a habit of making n not releasing/finishing videos
this was definitley one of the hottest tracks, REAL MUSIC ! I actually didn’t realize how much I like MBDTF until now.
wow!!that eminem cocaine shit is soulful.the eminem i used to worship in 2002 when i was 12.hehe.
i appreciate the critiques yall!! thanks for takin the time to check out the video! thank you to 2DOPEBOYZ for posting! i definitely got inspired when i 1st heard the song. the video reflects the vision precisely as i saw it in my mind. i consciously cast a Latina to play the role of the apartment owner in order to not play into or perpetuate any socially-constructed stereotypes but im glad that it was still able to spark awareness and a discussion regarding skin color (billy clint’s comment). im always about challenging and countering media-driven stereotypes. i look forward to sharing more work with yall!
fuck this nigga kanye i hope he get fucked in the ass wit a broken broomstick. hope that nigga bleed out his ass i hate his shit., fuck that nigga ross 2 he probably pull a badge out on a nigga if he fuck up. fuck him i hope he a die painful death maybe his kids 2. fuck them both.
yonie.ethiopian.love <cool thanks for interacting with us. im assuiming your ethiopian from your name? i also assume the "devil in the new dress" ( lol) is too she looks it (maby im wrong) so im sure that wasnt ur intention just something i think is slipped in alot of peace.
*i think ive noticed is slipped in alot of media. peace
This was really impressive. The bastards who gave this shit a thumbs down should have their rights to internet use revoked.
Honestly when I was done watching the first thing I did was kind of tilt my head a lil, shrug my shoulders and said out loud, “ehh”. I mean it was nice to look at but the first girl’s acting took away from the visuals, and the second girl’s reactions did the same for me. If I’m sitting there thinking to myself, ugh these girls… models with no acting experience to me it’s more the directors fault for using them than anything else. If you’re realizing a vision you need to make sure all aspects of it are on point. If I as the viewer don’t get lost in it, and am questioning it the whole time I’m watching it. Something’s not right. It’s good, but not that good.
who the fuck types out ‘slash’.. there’s a fucking button/symbol for that.. see what I did there LMAO
@BillyClint yea, both i and the lead are Ethiopian. i have an independent movie comin out this summer called An Ethiopian Love filmed in Seattle, LA and Ethiopia so it’s all a subtle promo strategy lol. @V.P i appreciate the honest feedback. your critique of the acting will give me something to pay more attention to next video. thank you. keep the comments comin yall!
I’m Eritrean so it was cool seeing an Ethiopian girl especially as the main character. I thought this visual is (2)DOPE! I really liked it. What a coincidence Yonie is my aka name in Tigrinya short for Yonathan.
WHERE THE FUCK WAS RICK ROSS’ VERSE?! haha Just playin this went hard. I love Indian women btw. Jets Fool.
Oh they were Ethiopian? Still fine tho. Lames catch feelings we catch flight…
Well done.
Good video
hit the name for the game
My girl Miss Helen lookin georgous! #SeattleBabyyyy =)
@KenMasters you couldn’t tell?
@Duh! Nope. I’m slippin my dude lol
and that my friends is what you call Creativity
imo the video would’ve been better if the G.O.O.D. Friday’s version of Devil In A New Dress was used instead of editing the album version to fit into 2 minutes and 37 seconds. Still pretty damn dope, props.
Am I the only one that noticed homegirls mustache?
^yes
YONIE GOOD STUFF REPRESENT NEW FLOWER ALL DAY
Yonie – glad to see you getting some recognition my dude!! Love the video, sorry we missed each other in Seattle.
