Lil Wayne Shows Off Finger-Painting Skills In "Mirror" Music Video


On Jan 31, 2012

In case you haven't heard it, "Mirror" featuring Bruno Mars is one of the more-worse (I use this because of the plethora of bad songs) tracks from Weezy's Tha Carter IV, and I'm figuring the only logical reason they made a music video out of it was to show Wayne's artistic genius and also insert yet another slice of Christ symbolism into his life pictorial.

The basic gist of the visual set is finger-painting, and the rest gravitates around the central theme. Wayne can be seen doing what you might call a contemporary rendition of Jackson Pollock and adolescent street art, ultimately ending in a picture (obviously not painted by himself) of a self-crucifixion. Bruno Mars spends a fair amount of time on a ladder, and at the end of it all, it's a tacky companion to an already tacky track.

I'll end the synopsis there and let you check it out for yourself. Here's the video, give it a watch, throw up your thoughts. Tha Carter IV has been out for awhile now, so, you know...
