Mikey: Yesterday, the NYT gave us a written preview of Ye’s highly anticipated music video for his single “Power”, but TheWorldsBestEver liberated 2 more flicks from the shoot and a few more tidbits of what we can expect.

“Some notes from the upcoming video (out in August):
•Kanye in an orgy of decadence and destruction with mostly-nude models including Diandra Forrest, Jessica White, and Irina Shayk.
•Inspired by Michelangelo’s frescos in the Sistine Chapel
•Nihilism is part of the message”
