Genius frequently makes artists sit and watch new videos of rising stars to share their reaction with the public on “Cosign”. The new instalment of this show has Alicia Keys watching the first Griselda video.
She immediately recognised Hype Williams as a mastermind behind the camera and was genuinely impressed:
This sonic is sick […] It mixes almost concept with SGI and the real life black and white, and then with youe favourite video shit where the chicks have to be in their panties and shit. But you know, you’ve got everything! Buffalo produces some products, that’s crazy! You don’t expect this, but it’s like enough people that come from Buffalo. It’s super throwback to the 90s, for sure, and I’m with it. Like, it’s going to go around and around and around forever and ever and ever. Because like I said, great things are timeless.
Conway the Machine was excited to get this nod of approval from a legendary singer and shared her reaction video on his Instagram with a comment:
