A naughty schoolboy&nbsp;goes on a sugar-fuelled rampage, in French director and graphic designer&nbsp;So Me's promo for Riton's infectious Sugar - featuring&nbsp;Soaky Siren.&nbsp;The eccentric promo sees the young rascal (played by&nbsp;Ethan Wesley) tear up the town, stealing various sugary treats in a riotous, explosive adventure - much to the dismay of the poor people trying to go about their day.With&nbsp;frantic, in-your-face cinematography, a great supporting cast,&nbsp;some laugh out loud moments - as well as some lively choreography - it's a brilliant video that takes a fun concept and pulls it right to the edge of absurdity... and the track couldn't have asked for a more catchy visual.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

New pop hope Griff turns in a splendid live performance of Black Hole in Thomas Ralph's film shot at the newly restored Hackney Church. In the process it&nbsp;shifts from infinite darkness to space and light, and then back and forth between day and night.Griff is initially seen against total blackness - actually a&nbsp;black infinity wall that&nbsp;is revealed as such when the camera moves outwards to reveal the location and the teenage singer's fellow musicians. Then the church is revealed and a sense of space and light streaming from a giant stained glass window is a real mood-lifter.Most importantly of all, Griff reveals herself as a genuinely exciting talent with a great version of this excellent song.[imgtoken data:1]

Oliva Rose uncovers a UFO conspiracy, in the dystopian&nbsp;promo for Lancey Foux's Steelo Flow.&nbsp;Paying homage to sci-fi iconography and retro obsessions with extraterrestrials, a janitor is glued to several monitors, hoping to get a glimpse of alien life.&nbsp;He lucks out when he spots Foux in an industrial warehouse, mounted upon a motorcycle in a frenetic and exciting performance setup. Between the strobes and snapshots of his exposed face, something isn't quite right...&nbsp;Refreshingly unique and futuristic, Rose pushes current trends aside and digs deep into the rich subject matter, and gets an extraordinary performance from the artist to anchor the whole project.&nbsp;

Another modern jazz classic from Kamasi Washington and his amazing band gets a mesmerizing visual by Jenn Nkiru, as experimental as the music.It&#39;s a single-shot and in many ways a still-life too, revealed in a dead-slow reverse zoom to reveal three night-gowned and sashed women performing in front of a flag - in fact, it&#39;s artist-director&nbsp;Larry Achiampong&#39;s work&nbsp;Pan-African Flag For The Relic Traveller. And then the zoom reverses to close in one face even more close-up than before.&nbsp;The track is Hub-Tones,&nbsp;taken from Kamasi Washington&#39;s second album Heaven and Earth,&nbsp;out on Young Turks.

Instead of a video for one track from American jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington&#39;s new album Heaven And Earth, director Jenn Nkiru and creative director Bradford Young are behind an innovative campaign of one minute &#39;teaser&#39; videos for four different songs.The first two in the series are Fists Of Fury and&nbsp;Space Travelers Lullaby, featuring enigmatic scenarios that draw&nbsp;you into Washington&#39;s glorious music.In Fists Of Fury, a trio of dancers in 1930s&nbsp;Ethiopian miliary garb execute a jaunty running dance around a red star; in Space Travelers Lullaby, a mysterious ceremony takes place in a forest, where a red-garbed priest bestows a blessing upon a young woman. And both certainly makes you want to see and hear more.

A cast of kids take on the role of adults in Beatrice Pegard&#39;s video for Matt Simons, and lipsync the lyrics included&nbsp; the much repeated title of the song, We Can Do Better.&nbsp;The effect is to emphasise the message. And it really is&nbsp;quite understandable why they would think that they can do better.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Mahalia mulls over the indiscretions of the previous night in Chris Day&#39;s charming video for Sober, shot by Matthew Emvin Taylor, with different formats and stills employed to rewind to her unwise party romance.&quot;This story is totally about the morning after. Thinking about the night before - all the mistakes you made, all the muddled texts you sent. I always talk about how this song is a representation of realising a situation is not good for you and getting yourself out of it. This is me waking up and smelling the roses. Now that I am sober&hellip;&rdquo; - Mahalia via diymag

After the emotional and erotically-charged video for Like A Woman, directing duo JACK have created another audacious and controversial&nbsp;piece in their second collaboration with&nbsp;Kacy Hill.For Hard To Love, the singer submits herself to a &#39;graphic performance&#39; by artist Christophe Brunnquell, who proceeds to write the song&#39;s lyrics on Hill&#39;s body - beginning with the word Trust on both her eyelids.What is striking is the full commitment to the idea, which in effect puts Hill in her interlocutor&#39;s control - nearly naked, strapped and suspended as he uses her as a canvas, with no half-measures. All this is captured with characteristic intimacy by Steve Annis&#39;s camerawork.But curiously it appears to be the second big pop video in recent weeks that is contestably influenced by the work of <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114134/" target="_blank">British arthouse director Peter Greenaway</a>. Just don&#39;t call it a lyric video.&nbsp;

Kacy Hill - Hard To Love

Kacy Hill makes a big impression in her first big&nbsp;music video, with an exhibition of frank and robust sexuality,&nbsp;presented by&nbsp;directing duo JACK for Like A Woman.From the stylised rendition of her sexual awakening on the backseat of a bus, we dive headlong into Hill&#39;s fantasy, focussing on her body in fetishwear, glistening like a prizefighter under lights. There are references to American Beauty, and Botticelli&#39;s Birth Of Venus with bold portrait-like imagery that works well in showcasing Hill&#39;s impressive vocal talents.&ldquo;Like A Woman is an exploration of my own femininity and sexuality,&quot; says the singer. &quot;I want my audience to have a similar experience of their own while listening. My goal is not to make a statement, but make space for exploration without shame or guilt. I don&rsquo;t speak for all women. I speak for Kacy Hill.&rdquo;

Bouha Kazmi&#39;s beautiful, haunting dance clip for MØ&#39;s Nights With You - her first release of 2017 &ndash;&nbsp;uses architectural ruins to set an incredible scene.Shot mostly in the crumbling remains&nbsp;of Bulgaria&#39;s Communist Party HQ, the dance clip sees MØ and her dancers embrace one another in amongst the monolithic structures to an old discredited regime. The clip melts into a colourful&nbsp;and explosive nighttime&nbsp;scene, contrasting the ruins of the past with a celebration of a more loving and accepting future.&nbsp;The large cast in the video help to cement the image of a hopeful new generation of young people of different countries and backgrounds, standing together - and dancing together.
