French Montana ft. Nicki Minaj "Freaks" Video Review


By: Alex L.

After teasing his fans with clips of his new video, Bronx rapper, French Montana, officially released the Eif Rivera directed video “Freaks” featuring our favorite “Barb,” Nicki Minaj this past Thursday.

The song is self explanatory as Montana and Minaj rap about needing a sexual deviant. The song also samples two 90’s reggae hits, Lil’ Vicious “Freaks” and Chaka Demus and Pliers “Murder She Wrote.” The song has a island vibe which is accurately portrayed in the video.

Set in an underground dance-hall club scene where the club goers grind and whine to the upbeat hip-hop hit, Nicki Minaj seems to steal much of the thunder in this four minute visual. She prances around and seductively dances while wearing gold pasties and skin tight multi-colored, leopard leggings. French Montana takes a more of demure role in the video which could lead viewers to think that Minaj is the main attraction.

In all, “Freaks” is a decent video and if you are a fan of French Montana or Nicki Minaj the video will hold your attention from beginning to end. “Freaks” is the fourth single off French Montana’s upcoming album, Excuse My French, set to be released May 21, 2013. Check out “Freaks” right here on LUCID. Enjoy!
