Bon Iver & Kanye West Reunite for Francis and the Lights' 'Friends' Video
Francis and the Lights has dared to go where Future and Desiigner have yet to tread, parlaying his startling sonic likeness to Bon Iver into a collaboration. One with Kanye West, too, who tapped Bon Iver/Justin Vernon for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Watch the Throne and Yeezus.
The Francis/Bon Iver/Kanye collaboration, aptly titled "Friends," arrives in video form. Robot & Frank director Jake Schreier helmed the one-shot clip, which opens on Very Serious Kanye before turning to Francis Farewell Starlite (that is his name) busting some spastic solo moves, then hitting some light, lovable choreo with Vernon. Kanye shows up again at the end, Kanye-ing in the corner.
