INSPIRE US: Solange "Losing You"

You can find photographic inspiration anywhere. Everything about this video is photographically beautiful. From the muted saturation to the light flares...it's perfect. Melina Matsoukas' visual style is beautiful. Here is the article about the song and vid: Pitchfork.com CLICK HERE.

Note: We recognize that the video is beautifully made and is a celebration of life and culture, but that there is nothing romantic or beautiful about poverty and the gross unequal distribution of wealth that exists in various places on this planet.
