Easily Nas's best video (and this is coming from a Hype fan). Questions I have though. How did they get that panoramic look? and What happened to Josh Taft? (I love the video he did for Tribe Called Quest as well)

Good find. Haven't seen that since the 90's.

I gather it was done in post, and shot with spherical lenses. Don't know what happened with Josh Taft either. He also did Cypress's "Insane in the membrane".

Another great director from that era was Michael Lucero (Souls of mischief's 93' till infinity, many others).

Josh has been busy directing commercials for Nike, Sprite, Adidas, Mercedes and Nissan:
