Wow, great to see this behind the scenes footage unearthed of The Pharcyde and Spike Jonze filming one of the best music videos ever created. Classic in every sense of the word Shout to 2DopeBoyz for posting.
And the result:
When “Otis” dropped this past week, I couldn’t help but chuckle at all the praise filled tweets and blogs, as if the track’s quality somehow caught folks off guard. It’s Hov and Yeezy! What do you expect?
This mini documentary really just teases us with what it might be like to live the uber-baller, can’t tell me nothin’ kind of life that Jay and Kanye exist in. When you live in this plane, whatever you want to do, you just will it and it’s done. Want to record a masterpiece with your friends in Hawaii? No problem, MBDTF is your result. Want to switch locales to Australia, rent castles, hang out with Russell Crowe, and immortalize him in music history? You got it.
Despite a few folks trying to get their attention, there isn’t any competition in hip-hop for these two. They live on the throne, we watch it.
Spree tells the story behind the making of “Don’t Pass Me By,” his duet with Esthero off The Never Ending Now. If you haven’t checked out the project yet, grab it here. “Don’t Pass Me By” is one of my favorite records of the year, hands down:
Big shout to Daytona for sending over the behind the scenes footage of him and 6th in the studio cooking up a record called “Camelot.” I don’t think fans get to see these scenes enough, and certainly, nobody gets to see 6th’s beard enough. No word on where/when this song will be released, but I’m sure you’ll hear it on SNSS when it drops!
So dope. This is how you make a classic record.
Shout to HipHopOfficial for putting together a great piece.
