The Most Popular Music Videos Released This Week (8/29)
Posted by Doug Klinger on August 29, 2014 in Most Popular Music VideosStaff Post |
Its no surprise that the week after the VMAs, the most popular video features the three ladies who opened the show: Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj. Their video for Bang Bang, directed by Hanna Lux Davis, was a fun a stylish blockbuster that pulled in over 6.5 million views this week more views than the other nine videos on the list combined. The girls were followed by follow VMA performer Usher, whose video She Came To Give It To You saw a respectable 1.3 million views this week. At the third spot is Charli XCX, who performed at the VMA pre-show and whose video for Break The Rules also cracked the million views mark.
As we move down the list, we get RedFoo teaming up with the Sexy Sax Man for New Thang, Grimes and her self-directed video for Go, and Borgeous keeping the party going with Breathe. G-Unit sits at the seventh spot this week with their politically charged Ahhh Shit which was made in response to the police brutality in Ferguson MO. The Weeknd helps put Toronto on the map with the NSFW King Of The Fall at number eight, Hoodie Allen gets cinematic with Movie at number nine, and Labrinth rounds out the top 10 with the motion control masterpiece Let It Be.
This was a super cool week for music videos, so if youre feeling super cool, take a break from watching every Simpsons episode ever and check out this playlist of the 25 most popular music videos released this week. Then, order yourself an Uber and get your butt down here to Applebees, everyone is waiting on you!
