Have Mercy: Chris Brown Drops Video For “Mercy (Freestyle)”

We can declare without reservation that Chris Brown‘s video for his freestyle of Kanye West‘s G.O.O.D. Music jam “Mercy” is the least offensive thing he’s done in a while — though that isn’t saying much. In the seizure-inducing vid, Brown alternates between looking like DJ Jazzy Jeff and an eskimo from the future. The whole clip, which runs less than two minutes, is less a music video and more of an excuse for Brown to promote his forthcoming album Fortune (July 3), despite the fact this freestyle will not appear on it.

“Enjoy” the clip above. And let us never speak of those terrible flip-up glasses he’s wearing ever again.
