HYPE WILLIAMS CLASSICS

A cool play on the 1979 classic Mad Max, starring Mel Gibson. California Love, is probably one of the most memorable anthems to come out of the Golden State. Tupac and Dre ,and of course Hype Williams at their finest...



Jay-Z and UGK presented the pinnacle of the hip hop lifestyle in this flashy and stylish 2000 production...Big Pimpin



Kanye West's informational tale about the West African diamond conflict is an artists dream. Shot in the trademark Hype Williams Black & White, this dramatic video hits home hard with shocking images of children missing limbs.
"Little is known of Sierra Leone and how it connect to the diamonds we own..."



"Ain't no shook hands in Brooklyn!" The 2009 Diddy,Big Pappa,and Dirty Money release "Angels" is Hype Williams at his best. Another classic use of black and white cinematography. Diddy takes a stroll through the Brooklyn borough of New York City proclaiming ,"Came from heaven,just to sing a song for you..."ITS THAT DIRTY MONEY!!



"HATE ME NOW", Escobar himself creates much controversy with his impersonation of Jesus Christ. However, the symbolic significance of the impersonation should not go unnoticed. Donning the Cross and a tattered robe;Nas,seems to aim to create a symbol of sacrifice.A symbol of someone willing to die for their convictions...Hate Hype Now
