METTE 'Bet' (Director's Cut) by C Prinz

Rob Ulitski - 4th June 2024

METTE gets to grips with her phenomenal power - in the guise of her sprite-like alter ego - in C Prinz's marvellously inventive and surprising video for Bet.

It starts with an exploding streetlight in a city parking lot, where 'normal' METTE is abandoned in her taxi by the driver, once confronted by the 'other' METTE who can make incredible things happen - like shooting lightning bolts and starting earthquakes - while she dances around the vehicle.

This version of METTE seemingly terrorizes the other, until the two begin to come together, in a wonderful sequence captured by a camera rotating around them at high speed. And then the video ends at the same point as the start.  

Coming after the acclaimed videos directed by Camille Summers-Valli that effectively launched the artist into the world - including Mama's Eyes, winner of Video of the Year at the UKMVAs last year - it is a brilliant move to follow that by teaming the irrepressible singer/dancer with the talented and daring director/choreographer who created another modern classic, and UKMVA award winner, for Doechii's Crazy.

This one looks in all the world like another winner. And we are featuring C Prinz's Director's Cut here - with longer opening and ending sequences, as she intended.
