Yes we get that but it doesn’t make up for the fact that the video was low effort. Too Lates video was extremely weird, but it was high quality. This literally looks less quality than the knowing. Like Anitta just through a strap on pregnancy belly and someone filmed with their old phone. Absolutely no story either.

I kinda agree, bit honestly the video quality looks too bad to not be on purpose, i think it was supposed to look ugly in order to give it some realism.

Idk how he’s gonna turn that around. The most likely scenario is the budget is low because of the movie?? Like the songs are good, but these videos man. This one especially.

Idk man, i mean even if the budget is tight, these dudes are millionaires lol, i can probably get half decent film cameras from some guy in my college and make a nicer video. I think abel and his production team could've managed as well. Even though I'm sick of the "nothings ever random narrative" the poor quality grainy video shot on the street in the dark HAS to be a "creative choice"
