OK this could beat Snoop’s Video

December 20, 2007

We all love the new Snoop Video, but this video could kick his ass. I found this unofficial video for “Us Placers” by Lupe, Kanye, Pharrell. It was directed by VA$HTIE. The song was off of the Kanye West mixtape using a radiohead song for the background.

From Youtube:

a spec video directed by VA$HTIE for the song “Us Placers” off Kanye’s mixtape “Can’t Tell Me Nothing”, using child versions of each artist. appearances by: Jamie, Plain Pat, Stephen SB WEAR Barr and Ruffy.

directed by Va$htie. dp’ed by Kira Kelly. edited by Scenario.

this video was shot for the love of the song on zero budget! ie: all the clothes and props were mine or a friends. thanks to everyone who helped out and worked for free

special thanks to: the crew, the cast (Jumaane Jr., Nigel, Boogie, Michael and Michaela), Anna Sumilat, Jamie Baratta, Plain Pat, Ruffy (Marcella and Phillip), Elle Clay, Rob Young, JaVon Floyd, Oscar Wild, Erin Lennox, Ben Dickinson, Raul Lopez, Kareem Johnson, Aahmek Richards, Scott Williams, and Stephen Barr.
