Remember when Kanye shot 3 different videos for "Jesus Walks" back in 2003? Well it appears he's done the same thing for "Flashing Lights".
This version is even more confusing than the first, it's hard to tell whats going on, but I think Kanye's girlfriend gets raped when he's out partying with another female. If you have any idea whats going on here... feel free to school me in the comments.

This is one of those songs that continues to leave me questions, and the videos aren't really helping much. I think you're right about the rape section, but K looked pissed at the other girl he was "partying" with. I can't call it... "What do I know?"

Since I'm not a big Kanye fan I haven't seen the other versions of this vid. I'm not feeling this w/all the quick jumpcuts.

your theory seems to be accurate. this is my favorite song from that album. i don't think i've seen the other two videos
My Trusted MOGs

that was weird. kinda like a Guess? commercial or a Sean Combs cologne ad.

She burned the eggs, man. She burned the eggs! I think the video is about Kanye leaving his woman cuz she was a bad cook. See, she's more concerned with dressing nice and partying than making a nigga a good healthy breakfast in the morning. So, Yeezy ditched her ass for a new woman. Then, she sits around the house all day doing nothing, goes out to party, and gets beat up and robbed on her way home. She deserved the shit, for burning the eggs, man. She was probably being a bitch to the driver too, which is why she left the house by car, and ended up on the train going home. The moral to the story: women should spend less time shopping and partying, and spend more time getting their kitchen game tight.
At least...that's what I saw. :)

Troy i hope you never come within 10 feet of a feminist, we may have a fight on our hands.

Would you believe that one of my best friends is a feminist (and also and "advocate" or whatever they call themselves for gays and lesbians)? We've had quite a few deep and heated discussions. Probably the best of them happened at a strip club concerning whether strip clubs were demeaning to women...or demeaning to MEN. Good times.

kitchen game? haha.
