EPIC FAIL: Drake’s “Best I Ever Had” Video
By Hello Beautiful July 2, 2009 9:06 am
The staff at HelloBeautiful are big fans of this song, but we were pretty upset when we saw this video. Drake and Kanye (who directed the video) should be ashamed of their depiction of females in this video. This video basically says a woman’s beauty is defined by how big her boobs are and how light her skin is.
Watch the video and tell us what you think:

The skits in there were funny and enjoyable. I was interested in seeing that because I have never seen him act in anything that I can remember. And since that is his roots I wanted to see what the hype was on that front. Video wasn’t stellar or profound overall. Has it moments. Pretty girls verses regular girls. Regular girls whipped there asses. Sounds like a underlying meaning there. Maybe Kanye mind is hoping your looking deeper into the video then just the visual.

I think the video was pretty funny, especially for all the “best” chicks to get their azz whooped on the court. And hey, it’s his video so if he wants fair skinned women with big breasts in his videos so be it. If I were making videos, i would have the main men I am attracted to in it as well.

Dammit Drake! WTF! This is PURE garbage..and did they have a budget for this vid lmao
shyest_chick
wow, his team has the glam girls with make up, weaves, and boob jobs while the other team holds the average girl. So which came 1st, chick or egg, do these vids rep reality or influence? I didn’t like it but I learned that glam girls don’t need skills or sense and average chicks do…smh

IT’S A SHAME HOW HOT DRAKE’S MUSIC IS AND HE MAKES THIS BULLS**T ASS VIDEO THANKS TO KANYES VISION. LOOK HOMIE YOUR MUSIC IS HOT STICK TO UR OWN VISION FOR UR VIDS AND STOP LETTIN OTHA MC’s F**K UR S**T UP. THIS IS THE 3RD DUMB ASS MISTAKE DRAKE MADE. 1st HE’S LINKED TO DATING RIHANNA…UMM DID U NOT KNO SHE IS A DRAMA/ CRAZY CHICK. 2nd U MESSED UP DOIN THA BET SHOW AND NOW THE VIDEO I MEAN DAMN COME ON
Black-Law
I’m sorry. I think it’s funny and different.

Yea I aint like this video either i remember when i typed in to see it i was all excited cause i loved the song. Then i saw team drake my smile became a frown like huh? I thought it was going to be more like a sweetheart video and like other girls trying to come between him n his girl love but it wasnt, just like all yall said light skinnned girls half naked idk wat they was thinking he need to redo that vid cause it gets no play.
CollegeDIVA314
this video is trash….it makes no sense..lol….and whats wrong with light skin girls….i kno we have a bad rep….but its not our fault that we are looked at like that…me personally i dont like that bcuz all women of color are beautiful especially darker skin women…in my opinion
fior
2 b quiet honest i think the video sucks…i think weve come along way now fom depicting that the sexiest of women are light skinned long haired and big breasted… oh and another thing y would drake allow kanye west 2 direct his video as if he were gonna make his video as good as his, better or even a potential runner up for the best video award…?
Jaydcart2
That video made no sense at all. It was ridiculous, I’m disappointed in Drake. Thats wat happens when u work w/ Wayne… Love Weezy but smh he’s OD when it come to women.
moneymommy
All i’ma say is imitation is the best form of flattery, so they say. I’m sick of it though do yall not see all these imitation black women showin up everywhere all over the tv yeah I would like to snap about directors putting light skinned black women up on pedestals but these women half of em’ don’t even be black they are what I call imitation black women and that is a white brunette with a tan or a thick headed latino or sum other kinda broad that aint who she posing to be which is an insult within itself it’s like even a light skinned black woman aint good enough they want what they consider to be the next best thing and thats some one that looks black but aint black
GOTTAGETMYGROOV
Yep…youre right. And that light skinned thing, that’s everywhere and everything. Poor dark women cant catch a break. HOWEVER…this video unintentionally shows that the big boobs and light is not the best…at least not in basketball (LOL). Guess light girls cant jump!(LMAO)
Butterfly_Bowles
THERE ISN’T NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS VIDEO, I HAVE SEEN WORSE…WAY WORSE..I WOULDN’T APOLOGIZE FOR S**T FOR NOBODY TO NOBODY..AND THAT’S REAL!YOU THE BEST EVEN WHEN YOU LOSE..THINK OF IT THAT WAY
