As a former personal assistant to Sean "Diddy" Combs, longtime friend of André 3000, and signee to Kanye West's GOOD Music label, Fonzworth Bentley pretty much knows everybody. That may help explain why he headlines this star-studded, Temptations-style video (directed by Dion Watkins) posted to West's blog, and partly excuses his low-voiced, low-impact verse ("hot like Crisco"?). Although "Everybody" isn't all that great, it's a fun enough chance to see West, 3000, and hip-hop group Sa-Ra running through some old-fashioned choreography.

The goofy opening-- "Cool Outrageous Lovers of Uniquely Raw Style," everybody shouts, in a smart promotional nod to Bentley's yet-unreleased C.O.L.O.U.R.S.-- recalls the joshing that starts the clip for "Int'l Player's Anthem (I Choose You)". That "I like the way that you move" hook brings to mind another song with a Bentley video appearance, Outkast's "The Way You Move". As usual, though, "Sir Andre with an accent/ Three-triple-oh" is off the charts, intricately interweaving talk about his name and Navajos while comparing a red blouse to a matador attracting "horny bulls." The hunter gets captured by the game.
