Black Tie White Noise by David Bowie, featuring Al B. Sure!, addresses themes of racial and social tension, inspired by Bowie’s experiences in Los Angeles during the 1992 Rodney King riots. The song, produced by Nile Rodgers, merges funk and R&B elements, with Bowie exploring both personal and societal reflections. Directed by Mark Romanek, the video underscores the track’s introspective and culturally reflective tone.
