WATCH: new video from Jay Z and Kanye West

With Kanye and Jayhova both Dublin-bound this June, the hip hop heavyweights today give us a fresh visual treat. Coming from Romain Gavras, the same director behind MIA's controversial 'Born Free' promo, the Watch The Throne cut soundtracks a mob vs authorities skirmish, featuring fire, Molotov cocktails and (naturally) an elephant.

Check it out now as an appetite whetter for their two O2 shows (June 8-9), though those performances will be far less incendiary and dangerous for your health than the scene displayed below.

In other Kanye and Jay Z news, producer and collaborator Mike Dean announced several days ago that the pair had tentative plans to record a follow-up album together.
