Rihanna, Kanye West, and Paul McCartney release ‘FourFiveSeconds’ music video

by Jay Gabler

February 03, 2015

We'd already seen a promotional photo and behind-the-scenes footage from the "FourFiveSeconds" video shoot featuring Rihanna, Kanye West, and Paul McCartney. Now the video itself has been released; as expected, it's a simple black-and-white affair with Ri-Ri and Kanye singing while Sir Paul strums the acoustic guitar that powers the song. As Pitchfork observes, "there's so much denim."
