EDIT: After watching it over a few more times, I kinda like it now.
For all the time we waited for it, and the person who shot it hypeing it up so much, to me, it was kinda dissapointing. I liked the video, however I didn't really care to watch it again. It just moved to the right, andshowed them dancing in front of a green screen with monsters (record execs) in the back.
If youve been living under a rock or just havent got on the forums yesterday heres the video.

I enjoyed it, was worth the wait and definitely my favourite FV video.

Also their most ambitious, that was ALOT of green screen.

go down to the little circle thing in the bottom right hand corner and if you click on it it will have different resolutions from 240 to 1080p, on mine it atomatically starts in 480p for some reason
Its right next to the watch later button and the youtube button.

I prefer Hopsin's music videos. They seem more creative in my opinion. This was cool I guess but really they just got a weird looking sci-fi monster creature and the screen just moved. It's not that hard to think of some sci-fi shit and stick some weird creature in a video and then just show it a few times in the song.

Imo the music videos for songs like Kill Her and Ill Mind of Hop 4 are much more innovative and creative.

Independent Living video certainly wasn't bad but could have been so much better if they perhaps used that weird creature in a different way rather than just showing it and showing the Funk Volume members occasionally in the background every so often. Basically what I am getting at is the video didn't tell you anything. It didn't really give off a vibe or any emotions.

Pretty wierd video but good. If FV can afford this kinda shit it's going great. Didn't like the song and Im still not that pleased with it but the video helps a little.

This is their best green screened video so far (hop madness was badly done)


I prefer videos without greenscreen but if it's well done it's well done.

Nope, I mean come on it's 2012 there are plenty of other editers who could've done a better job..
..
They are not that poor.. They can at least hire a proffesional editor.. This video is boring as hell, they won't get big with this kind of stuff

I thought the Video was one of the dopest videos. Ya'll have to look at is as an Art piece.
Kind of reminds me of a few other videos where there are no cuts like this one

They're probably just getting carried away with green screening.
Keep in mind they haven't even done many videos in the first place though..

Are you kidding me? LOL, that video had Greenscreen in there as well and it looked like it was done in 1996.

Considering how low budget the video was compared to this one, it was by far the superior video. The Lucifer Effect video actually had a concept to it and it made sense. What concept does this video have to offer? It doesn't have one. It's just a random video of Dizzy, SwizZz, and Hop dancing while a sci-fi creature in the background just stands there.

Actually all the "sci-fi" creatures were symbolic of record execs, A&Rs etc. hence "Independent Living" it's a song about how they overcame the "demons" in the industry that held them back.
