This is obviously 4k. Probably a RED, but you can't really tell which camera is used by looking at the footage.

You can use any camera you like to shoot a music video. It's not the camera that makes fantastic pictures, it's the person behind the camera. A really good good DOP can make fantastic pictures with a Canon 5D, a really crap DOP can make really shitty pictures with an Alexa.

Probably a R3D or Alexa. Almost definitely 4k or more, and much of it in slo-mo, which means fancy external recorders (e.g. Atomos) so they can do that speed-ramping thing.
More to the point, how did such a terrible track get that much funding... :S

I'm sure it's not any form of Alexa. Possibly a RED yeah, but the whole thing looks crappy even for a RED.
It even looks like a just-about-correctly-exposed 5D to me a times, but they'd have never gone to those length and stuck a 5D on the end of a jib.
