Problems playing this file ? See media help. `` All of the Lights '' is a hip hop song that runs for 4 minutes and 59 seconds. According to the sheet music published by Universal Music Publishing Group at Musicnotes.com, it was composed in the key of B flat minor using common time and a steady groove. Rihanna 's vocal range spans from the low note of Ab3 to the falsetto note of F5. Instrumentation is provided by drums, bass, piano and horns. The piano is played by Elton John, who also together with thirteen other vocalists provides the background vocals. American singers Fergie and Alicia Keys, sing the break - downs and Ad - libs, respectively. Alex Deney from NME called the song a `` sleb - studded centrepiece ''. `` All of the Lights '' received critical acclaim. AllMusic 's Andy Kellman stated `` At once, the song features one of the year 's most rugged beats while supplying enough opulent detail to make Late Registration collaborator Jon Brion 's head spin ''. Alex Denney of NME called it `` the sleb - studded centrepiece '', commenting that `` In anyone else 's hands it 'd be an A-list circle - jerk of horrid proportions, but through Kanye 's bar - raising vision it becomes a truly wondrous thing ''. Zach Baron of The Village Voice found the song 's lyrics relevant to the `` year of economic suffering '', writing that `` West interrupted his own wealthy anomie to pen ' All of the Lights, ' an incongruously star - stuffed song about a disoriented parolee trying to beat a restraining order and see his daughter, working out a brief reunion with her estranged mother : ' Public visitation, we met at Borders ' ''. Chicago Sun - Times writer Thomas Conner viewed that `` as crowded as ' All of the Lights ' is (, ) it maintains an almost operatic drama, telling a tale of adultery and its aftermath that winds up being quite moving ''. The Guardian 's Kitty Empire cited the song as `` the album 's most magnificent high '', writing that it `` backs up operatic levels of sound with great drama ''. Accolades For the 54th Grammy Awards in 2012, `` All of the Lights '' was nominated for Grammy Awards for Song of the Year, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap / Sung Collaboration. It won the latter two awards. Slant Magazine placed it atop their list of best singles of 2011. Music video and remix West on a police car in the music video. The music video for `` All of the Lights '' was filmed in January 2011 and directed by Hype Williams. It features strobe - lit images of Rihanna and West, Kid Cudi in a red leather suit, and visual references to Gaspar Noé 's 2009 film Enter the Void. The video premiered through West 's Vevo channel on February 19, 2011. After reports of the video 's images causing seizures with epileptic viewers and a public response from British organization Epilepsy Action, an alternate video was released that includes a discretionary warning that the video `` potentially trigger ( s ) seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy '', and removed its opening prologue and neon credits. In 2015, the video faced controversy when Gaspar Noé commented the similarities between the video and Enter the Void, especially when Hype Williams featured his name in the title and credit sequences over and over again. An earlier version of the song 's remix was leaked in 2010, featuring a verse by Drake. On March 14, 2011, an unfinished version of the remix was leaked to the internet, featuring guest verses from Lil Wayne, Big Sean, and Drake, a different verse from the leak. However, it did not feature West himself. Credits and personnel Credits for `` All of the Lights '' adapted from liner notes.
