Behind the Scenes of Every Rap Video Ever


I cannot possibly express how much this made my day. You wanna make a good video, bro? Do what the Beastie Boys did, grab a fish-eye lens, and videotape yourself in the fucking woods. Gold. Or, here's an idea, you're a scrawny white rapper, you are supposed to be a satire of yourself, so why not make this same video next to your '98 Accord, that shit would at least get a chuckle (not as much as this gem, but with way less embarrassment.) I hope every rapper does this, because it's pathetic in the heart-warming way that only a douchebag's downfall can be. Obscure reference, but I grew up with this shit: remember back on The Real World: New Orleans, when the cast had to produce a public access show (The Real 7 on 77, I think) and in the intro, each cast member introduces himself, except David, an aspiring R&B singer, who decided to videotape himself next to Land Rovers that weren't his, while he pretended to unlock them in super slow-mo and his terrible R&B re-imagining of "Luck Be a Lady" played in the background. This of course started a whole controversy in the house about what an asshole he is, and ever since then, I've had a sneeking suspicion that all rap videos are exactly like that. Now, I know that they are. Fuck you, David.

P.S. The fact that the video groupie on the hood seems completely unaffected by this leads me to believe that I am 100% right on this. She's been in every video ever, and clearly knows the drill.

Editor's Note: People keep telling me that this video is fake because the rapper is white, as is the car owner. Fuck that. I stand by my thinly veiled Bostonian racism as well as my assertion that David was and is in fact an asshole. As for the "production value is too low for a real video" argument, you are a fucking mongoloid sea creature's masturbatory rag if you think that poor people don't make rap videos. (I am not actually racist, but you are. If I'm wrong, prove it. Owned.)
