'Turn Me On' Music Video by David Guetta featuring Nicki Minaj
The video for David Guetta's latest smash hit 'Turn Me On' has to be one of the most conceptually intriguing music videos I have seen in a while. The song is this huge club-banger with Nicki Minaj taking the reigns and powering through some pretty hefty beats, but instead of taking it literally and doing something sexually provocative or the average "dancing in a club" montage, they took the video in a very interesting direction. David Guetta is almost like Dr. Frankenstein: he's creating people out of metal (à la 'Hugo'), but then then they rise up and take over. Nicki is one of these such creations who we see through the various stages of this transformation, and she is ultimately the one leading the group. The semi-finished manikin-like people were one of the most fascinating aspects of this video for me. It's always great to see artist take their work and make it into an art piece.
