Slave to the Rhythm

Jamaican-born singer/model/actress Grace Jones is back after a ten year musical hiatus with a new album called Hurricane. She appears to shape-shift as she personifies corporate evil in the video for her first single “Corporate Cannibal.” Sixty-year-old Jones wore no makeup for this disturbingly minimal video, in which her body represents a corporate entity seeping in and out of space. The lyrics are equally dark and pretty timely: “I deal in the market -- Every man, woman and child is a target/a closet full of faceless nameless pay less
for more emptiness.”

I dig this too, i just think it runs a little long. Dead-on portrayal of a shadowy cyber-entity. I imagine such beings really do exist very much like that.
Also: Damn, she's looking good for being over 60.
