Kanye West’s ‘Bound 2’ video (and the second single from his latest studio album Yeezus) debuted on The Ellen Degeneres Show today. The song title is a reference to the fact that the track samples Ponderosa Twins Plus One’s song ‘Bound.’ The song also features the line “Un-huh Honey” from Ronnie Self’s ‘Sweet Nothin’s and vocals by soul singer Charlie Wilson.

As for the video, it stars Kanye’s real-life honey and baby momma [Kim Kardashian](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kim-kardashian-fortnite). A blonde Kim appears [topless in the video](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela), making eyes at the camera and gyrating along with Kanye on a sky-bound motorcycle. The video, which is sure to generate a lot of controversy solely because it features KimYe, was directed by Nick Knight. While some couples are satisfied with engagement photos, this high-profile pair has taken it to the next level by immortalizing their love in [music video format](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-you-more).
