Nas- Be a Nigger Too (Dir: Rik Cordero)
A 8 minute spectacular!

This '8 min spectacular' is in fact a 3'30" vid that begins at about 2'17" of mediocre musical quality. That said, there is some super photography and the bolting on/insertion of related sequences are in keeping with the wider purpose of the video (a racial semantics polemic. It's also the first time I've heard the word 'kike' used in an mv). A bit earnest but ultimately respectable, although I think Cedric The Entertainer was more succinct and consequently persuasive in Be Cool.

Yeah nice photography and it's sincere, but way too literal with the lyrics and the whole 25th hour thing is smeared on a bit strong.
