ALICIA KEYS'S TEENAGE LOVE AFFAIR VIDEO
Earlier today on BET, Alicia Keys released the video treatment for her third single, "Teenage Love Affair" off her third solo effort, "As I Am".
Music video director Chris Robinson truly outdid himself with incorporating references taken from the Spike Lee 1988 film "School Daze" into the feel-good video.
The video which was filmed on the New Jersey campus of Drew University has tons of cameos from Jackie Long, Derek Luke, DJ Enuff, Anthony Hamilton, Giancarlo Esposito, Tristan Wilds, and Albert Daniels.
I'm digging the fact Alicia added a snippet of one of my favorite cuts "I Need You" from her 3x platinum "As I Am" record towards the end of the video.
Labels: Alicia Keys, Jackie Long, New Music
I love this video and song. This is how videos should be, tell a story!
