Kanye West released the official version of his “Black Skinhead” music video Monday on his website. The Nick Knight-directed video is an interactive experience that allows viewers to take charge of how they watch it by adjusting the speed and sound. It also gives them the ability to capture portions of it through screen grabs.

Now fans can catch the version West intended for them to see, which includes an animated avatar of the rapper.

“Allow me and Nick to give the world what we’ve been losing sleep over,” he wrote.

The emcee himself — or a retro, motion-capture animated version of himself, rather — is shown shirtless throughout the video, shrouded in darkness, with a glistening chain around his neck and what could perhaps be flashes of unseen paparazzi providing the only sources of light. Here are some snapshots:

The “BLKKK SKKKN HEAD” video was directed by Nick Knight, in collaboration with West’s creative house, DONDA. The screenshots from the video can be synched, posted and shared across all online and mobile social platforms.

Knight and West have teamed up for much of Yeezus‘ imagery, including the “guerrilla”outdoor projections of New Slaves.

Here is what Knight did for W Magazine:
