Kardi hinted at this video at the end of the clip for “Numba 1,” and now the visuals for “Nina” are here. When you have a song as good as this one, you don’t really need anything fancy for the video to turn out dope. Plus, I’m not mad at that girl in the car at all.
This is the third incarnation of this song, as the initial leaked version featured the Pussycat Dolls, the album track featured Rihanna, and now the video features Keri Hilson. To be honest, I can’t really pick one of those over the other, since they all do a decent job. The best part of this song is clearly Kardi and his energy, and the video does a great job capturing what one of his live shows is like. Dropping videos like this in October just isn’t fair though. The weather is starting to get awful and [Biggie] I swear to God sometimes it feels like death Jamaica is callin’ me [/Big].
Huge shout to Kardi and the Black Jays fam, especially for tossing my favorite track off of Not 4 Sale, “Nina,” at the end of the clip. Video courtesy of OnSmash.
Kardinal Offishall sits down with Angie Martinez, DJ Enuff, and Cipha Sounds at Hot 97 in New York. The interview happened right after Usain Bolt’s domination, and since Kardi has Jamaican roots, you know he was proud. They also talk a little about his upcoming Not 4 Sale album and his trademark yell. After the jump, peep Kardi talk about his favorite MC of all time.
