Solange’s third studio album, A Seat at the Table, was praised by critics for its honest and empowering messages regarding the African American experience.
The singer/songwriter delivered a music video
for two of the project’s standout tracks: “Don’t Touch My Hair”
featuring Sampha and “Cranes in the Sky.”
Don't Touch my Hair
The
former is a four-and-half-minute visual that begins with a close-up shot
of Solange shaking her braids back and forth, and then shows the
30-year-old performing striking choreography in various settings.
The lyrics are a beautiful reflection of how our locks are intertwined with our rich history and subsequently, bear a special significance that goes beyond our outward appearances.
Cranes in the Sky
“Crane
in the Sky” offers equally striking imagery, using beautiful dance and a
wide range of natural and manmade backdrops throughout. Both videos
were co-directed by Solange and her husband, Alan Ferguson.
