Your mileage may vary on the quality of Snoop Dogg‘s music since his changed his name to Snoop Lion and switched to a more reggae-fueled style. What’s clear, however, is that his latest music video is pretty neat. Snoop has teamed up with Major Lazer, Machinima, and animator Mykola Dosenko for an SNES-tinted video based around his song ‘Get Away‘.
Both of the song’s performers are well-versed in the art of cool YouTube music videos. Snoop has greatly expanded his presence on the site through his Maker Studios-partnered channel, WestFestTV, while Major Lazer has released a number of intricate music videos featuring Hollywood actors
. Their combined effort is squarely aimed at the gaming crowd, who will appreciate the Pokemon battle between the two stars and their subsequent shootout against a pair of thumping speakers.The video has drawn a mixed reaction from the MachinimaETC audience; detractors have taken issue with the song’s simple structure, while the video itself has drawn praise. As it turns out, when dealing with the YouTube crowd, invoking old-school video games is super effective.
