Rap: Friend or Foe?
Cam makes it his job on the regular to find amazing old rap videos and leave them on my Facebook and as a result I gotta get my fingers dusty and return the favors. The best part about YouTube is the unreleased videos that never made it to Much or MTV because of censorship issues. The number of amazing old classics that have videos I’ve never seen before is so sick. This Friend or Foe video was brand new to me up until a week ago and is so sick. Everything from the cinematic music editing to Jay and Dame clowning each other. They don’t make em like this anymore.
I wanted to check the interest in a weekly post where a few classic rap videos get burn. Does anyone want to see a weekly installment of Rap tracks? Am I stepping on any toes on a Thursday??

If they’re this good….. please do! But I think this is probably from the Streets is Watching movie. Don’t know for sure because I haven’t seen it.

Ahhh thank you for the check. I believe you’re right about the Streets is Watching. I never saw it either but It’s on the download now…

Yeah, this is from Streets is Watching. It’s basically a feature length video accompaniment to Vol. 1 and worth watching at least once if you’re a fan of Jay or that album.
Great find on the vid btw.

Streets is watching is a great movie to have playing in the background at a party!
The scene at the “strip club” is amazing.
The whole thing is way too long and not totally interesting, but it’s worth watching if you skip around and find the good parts.
