The home video vibe in this is done very well. The 2nd verse shot with Kanye directly talking to his mother and the lack of care in his singing symbolizes how the music is unimportant when he thinks of her. When he points to the sky he finally accepts his mother's death and the release of emotion when he smiles emphasizes this.
The final shot with Ye looking up with his daughter is a subtle reminder to him that she'll always be watching over them. Beautifully Executed

On first watch, I didn't understand most of it and shook it off as not that great. After watching it a few more times, I started realizing all the little things I love about it and eventually it'll probably be one of my favorite Kanye videos.

What do you think of it?

9/10 love the video

could really do without the in and outs with that audio tho, also hate how he cut out parts of the ending and the outro
