After releasing videos for "Otis" and "N----s in Paris," Jay-Z and Kanye West provide the next visual installment from their Watch the Throne collaboration in the form of "No Church in the Wild," the third single off the album.
Rather than feature Jay-Z, West or Frank Ocean, who sings the song's chorus, the Roman Gavras-directed video centers on a battle taking place in Prague. A masked citizen throws a Molotov cocktail at officers in riot gear and a fight ensues. A sea of men then rush towards the police, caring little about their own unprotected faces and raging into war.
The architecture of the city is highlighted, with ivory statues getting face time on camera while cops beat the assailants. Cars are overturned and fire erupts while peace seems to be a distant thought.
