Video: Kanye West "Love Lockdown" (HQ)

The video for Kanye West's much talked about (and played) song, "Love Lockdown," premiered yesterday on The Ellen Degeneres Show.  Now you may ask yourself, "Ellen?" But when you think about it, it really does makes sense.  Here we have a Pop artist who has made a tragic love song with universal appeal, what better place to premiere it than Ellen or Oprah?  (The answer is Ellen)  Each move is like a game of chess and Kanye is playing like a pro, but what else is new.  The video is pretty interesting, depicting Mr. West chilling in a living room when all of a sudden indigenous people start banging on drums and running around...yeah.  Kanye introducing AND peforming  "Love Lockdown" on Ellen, after the jump.
