Once that connection was made, others were quick to point out other similarities between the music video and reports of the crime scene: For one, smoke bombs set off in the suburban streets (where Lil Wayne also skateboards past a pair of skeletons). And, at 3:28, a mirrored reflection in the window nearly takes on the shape of a bat.
While Wayne has not spoken out on his latest clip, the director, Parris, took to Twitter to respond to the similarities. One user asked, "How do you feel about shooting the scene with the skeletons in the movie theater? Is that a bit eerie to you?"
"not at all. It's just sad that people try an associate a tragedy to a music video that was created by having fun nothing more," Parris responded. "I'm not that deep or sick to put cryptic messages in my videos purely art and entertainment."
