Hahaha.... :(, so sad and so depressingly true. Shit is fuct up

Its just a video that looks much more expensive than it was

Puff Daddy and Mase dancing in the sand dunes is absolutely the best thing ever and you can do that for next to nothing

ughhhhhhh, he uses the "word" "irregardless"... impossible to read.

but that video is super lol, especially considering what's happened in libya this year. i was REALLY hoping for a ghaddafi stand-in on j lo's arm.

automatic disqualification

I would like to know how much was spent on that video. Probably not a great amount. You can rent anything for filming for next to nothing.

^^ yeah, that too.

I couldn't. sand dunes are far away from me.

then again in respect to a multi-billion dollar industry i guess it is nothing. which raises all sorts of other questions.

you could drive to california, they have dunes, then all you need is the white suits and a video camera

and black people

That wasn't a Jumbo Jet

they didn't even crash it

That Bowie sample was probably the most expensive part.

In point of fact my good man you simply cannot; you are sincerely misshapen

but that sample has nothing to do with the video. the sample would've had to be cleared for use on the album

unless...the song was made completely out of the idea from the video

"hey, i've got a cool idea for a video...i just need some music to go with it..."

Depending on his contract, he could get paid every time the video plays.
