Music video

The music video for "I Still Love H.E.R." is essentially a parody of the popular video sharing site YouTube. The video is in fact a video clip, apparently uploaded onto TeriyakiTube, of the Teriyaki Boyz and Kanye West performing the song. The live-action portion of the music video is intercut with still-frame animated scenes of West's mascot Dropout Bear along with cartoon versions of Verbal, Wise, Ilmari, and Ryo-Z in a red convertible trying to woo an attractive woman. The clip ends with H.E.R. hopping into the car and riding off with Dropout and the Teriyaki Boyz before transiting to a black scene which lists the two options "share" or "watch again."[1]
