The newly vindicated Wests have dropped the visuals for “Wolves.”
Set in black and white, “Wolves” features an all-star cast that includes Sia and Vic Mensa alongside models like Cindy Crawford, Alessandra Ambrosio and Joan Smalls plus Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian.
The video which doubles as a spotlight for Balmain’s Fall 2016 line, features Ye delivering the track with tears streaming down his face. Balmain creative director Oliver Rousteing – who collaborated with West on his Yeezy Season 3 line – explained to Vogue how the “Wolves” video came together. “I called Kanye and I said, ‘I would love to create a campaign around your music, your lyrics, and your aesthetic,'” Rousteing said, adding that The Life of Pablo is “my favorite album ever.”
“Kanye has a really strong and incredible vision. I will say it is a vision of art. It’s about fashion; it’s about music; it’s about video. He’s an incredible designer as well, he’s an incredible art director, he’s an incredible singer, and I think it’s all of those things that I love about him. What I also love is that he actually says what he thinks and I love his strength because he is someone who is really honest.”
