The Making of Aminé‘s “Spice Girl” Music Video | Framework

Portland rapper Aminé dropped his self-directed music video for “Spice Girl” on October 10, and it has already earned over 10 million KZbin views. The song appears on his debut album 'Good For You' and is produced by Frank Dukes. Aminé’s video features multiple versions of himself alongside comically oversized props and even some celebrity cameos, and he recently linked up with Genius to break down how it all came together.

Okay can we take a second and appreciate the fact that he ADMITS that he copies other people and he doesn’t get hate for it. I love him.

[@javieresq22]

I see it more like a tribute or reference rather than "copying"

[@gabrielpetersen8528]

homage

[@HypealotNetwork]

Amine is very talented need more artists like this!

[@marselisscott6702]

Karen Yang 😏

[@WhosNyGeal]

😂 5'8 gang over here haha Amine is dope. I like how chill he is, whenever your free Karen could I get you to check out my music? 🙏🏾 I'm just tryna gain a listener a day and it would mean the world if you heard my song "Unlocked"

[@basic8189]

the industry needs more artists like this tbh.

[@foxycreole1128]

Basic I wouldn't trust the INDUSTRY if I were u

[@EmantheHeartbreak]

you really gotta respect this guy. different type of artist. a lot of artists say they "direct" their own videos but not like this

[@brifries619]

Kinda like Kevin Abstract of Brockhampton

[@EmantheHeartbreak]

Kyrie Irving me giving credit amine isn't taking anything away from Tyler lol.

[@jbmp1390]

This dude is a fucking treasure.

[@MischiefMemoirs]

I was rolling when he was talking about his chapped lips 😂

[@tspoontv8056]

"that's where we fucked up" hahaaaa

[@haydxn2902]

I was just about to say the same 😂😂

[@matthewmahony4838]

[@basic8189]

He's so talented and creative. Like, if more music videos looked like this I would probably watch them more often.

[@mxxxw4529]

Basic he is just not doing generic shit

[@sigma2503]

LOL "there aren't like girl shaking there asses in my videos"... watches reel it in. Great artist though one of my fav rappers.

[@rapaintdead3092]

Basic same

[@adia1568]

"I wanted them to see it and be like what the fuck is that" you succeeded. I watched it multiple times

[@TeeRql]

I love wild videos like this with a lot of creative direction. I use to love the “making the video” show on MTV. Always interesting to see behind the scenes and how they edit scenes.

[@YUNGSHADOWBEATS]

Another great series Genius! #DopeShit

[@MischiefMemoirs]

YungShadowBeats I'm so excited to see more 😁

[@StarRoseAngelic]

I thought the lotion scene with his friend was so cute lol It definitely seemed genuine. Glad they included it.

[@yakovhadash]

StarRoseAngelic pause

[@Stencio]

Aminé is a legend in the making fr

[@lucyhtml]

Love that Aminé comes up with his own ideas for his videos!

[@zationonion]

JedDraws 1:50 "Own" Idea.. He copied tyler the creator

[@DatDaDatty]

thought it was the beat deconstruction 😂

[@ginsayn]

^yea what he said but uu keep following me lmao

[@blackcrona2601]

Dat why I keep seeing you in every video bruh

[@logangboualiane9780]

You are everywhere wassup

[@CeeYouInMyDream]

Yeah.

[@capa1575]

I see you and sheerios everywhere

[@veronabelieber]

"I wanted them to just see this and be like: "what the fuck was that?". "And then be like: I gotta see this again". He completely achieved that. I've seen the video like 1000 times 😅😅😍

[@PJRewind4real]

i did not notice that the bike scene was a green screen

[@iMandyHere]

Wish he would've talked about the ending with STFU, i'm just gonna hope it's gonna be the next music video he's dropping

[@crystalnita7509]

that's his song it's called red Mercedes

[@JackBlack-hn2jl]

Crystal Nita no it’s not

[@uniquecaleb9966]

Crystal Nita. He already dropped a video for Red Mercedes.

[@abbypanderi]

i think it's because he made a poll and spice girl won but stfu still had a few votes so he decided to add a part of stfu vid for the amount of votes it got

[@Meme033094]

he seems very meticulously about his shit

[@nana7318]

He is just so talented

[@beatsbykana]

yes! I love the beat breakdowns and now I'm excited for these music video ones

[@renn2265]
