The 5 Most Captivating Animated Music Videos of 2020

‘The Adventures of Moon Man & Slim Shady’ – Eminem & Kid Cudi

Eminem and Kid Cudi teamed up for the track, ‘The Adventures of Moon Man & Slim Shady’. This track witnessed their respective verses settle over a haunting melody and low-key beats. Now, the lyrics draw a lot of parallels between their lives, and ones of superheros. And the visuals have beautifully weaved in this running theme.

Now, we’ve picked out some of the lines that reference the superhero world, take a look:

Oh, having visions of the city and I go to war
See me in the day through the late night (night)
Tell ’em it’s the charm, I’m in freeze mode
To the gods, can’t stop a hero when he in flight (flight)

Earthlings, I adapt to ’em
Certain things, I don’t want to do, but have to in
Order to just act human

The adventures of Moon Man and Slim (ah)
Yes, who want it with them?
The trilogy continues

The music video sees comic book versions of Eminem and Kid Cudi – out to fight crime. The use of a neon colour palette, rough textures and Ben Day dots all tie in to the common cliches of comic book art.
