I just finished watching Big Sean's latest video, "Ashley." I was like "okay, whats this song about?" Because I've never heard the record. I like the visuals of the song.
The video depicts a rising star who in the midst of success is battling with his emotions for Ashley, a girl he was romantically involved with.
Sean is madly in love with her primarily because Ashley saved his life by keeping him out of harm's way; drugs and gang life in the streets of (Eight) 8 mile.
And even though he loves Ashley, Ashley has found infatuation with Danger, and because she is scorned from her childhood, she feels that to feel danger is to feel love.
The actions of Ashley's infatuation destroys Sean's vision and understanding of love and it drives him to the point of insanity, and Ashley continues to be oblivious to how her actions effect Sean.
The pivotal point of story or relationship is when Sean hits rock bottom and the success of his music career is challenged forcing him to choose between emotional love or self love.
His love for himself and his desire to tell others about his story is the driving force that helps him to leave a tainted situation and Ashley dies in her abyss of sex, sin, and danger.
I like the video, although at first, I was totally lost with the story line. So, if you have some time, check out the video and leave your comments below in the comments section of my blog!
-Be Forever!
