Chris Brown Goes Samurai For 'Autumn Leaves' Video
. (Radio.com) Chris Brown's latest video for "Autumn Leaves" finds him journeying to foreign lands and wearing the swords of a samurai. The video eschews traditional music video tropes (with the exception of one rather out of place girl in a bikini) in favor of cherry blossoms and Buddha statues. While the imagery is largely Eastern, the video was in fact shot in the lush rainforest of Hawaii. Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran co-stars as his robe-clad lover in the video. They keep things very PG though: Chris Brown gives her no more than a peck on the forehead during a romantic hail of blossoms. The song features Kendrick Lamar, who doesn't seem to have made it to the shoot; instead, he is an invisible voice from above. Chris Brown raps quietly along to some of his verse. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Brown described why he chose Kendrick for the song: 'I picked Kendrick because his subject matter as a lyricist is beyond everybody else's," he explained. 'There's a substance to what he says." Watch the video here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
