Proof you don't need to rap about: Getting laid, weed, cars & wealth. Just be real. Hell the budget for this video looks like $7 Love everything about this song.
Thank you so much for posting this video. It's one of my favorite's ever. He's got flow, a sense of humor and he's talking about some dark stuff for himself. I heard a friend saw him filming the homeless part and actually thought he had fallen that low. Yeeeahh he's still got it.
Fun facts about Fatlip!: - Original member of my favorite rap group of all time, The Pharcyde. He was the last of the 4 original members to join. - He was kicked out of the group for 2 reasons. Primarily for leaving during the supporting tour for the release of their second album, "Labcabincalifornia", in order to work on his solo career. The second reason being his fellow members' disapproval of his well-known crack and cocaine addiction. He himself claims he wasn't an addict but dabbled with cocaine, fellow musicians, producers, and friends disagree. Regardless, the remaining members of the group display their support of Fatlip and his solo career during concert footage in the documentary "Cydeways: The Best of the Pharcyde." It is assumed (especially by myself) that producer J-Swift (produced Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde) introduced Fatlip to crack, since his addiction began during that time. He is still in recovery; he was featured in the 2007 documentary "One More Hit", where he attempts to overcome his addiction and regain his music career. - The music video for this song was directed by Spike Jonze. Spike also compiled several interviews with Fatlip to release a documentary by the same title as the song. Spike Jonze also previously directed the music video "Drop" by The Pharcyde (Fatlip still being a member of the group during that time). - Fatlip appeared on Jackass, sliding down an escalator rail. He edited the footage into one of his music videos, "Worst Case Scenario." - The line "In the back of your mind, you probly thinkin' I was gay." was in reference to his part of the song "Oh Shit", the opening track of The Pharcydes' debut album "Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde". The song is comprised of fictional, comedic skits of embarrassing tales between all the members. His part in particular, describes almost having sex with a lady before finding out she was a trans woman. - Trevant "Tre" Hardson (Slimkid3), Romye Robinson (Bootie Brown), and Emandu Rashaan Wilcox (Imani) met as dancers; their main ambition from the late '80s until 1990. During that time, Imani and Slimkid3 were in a group called "As Is", before performing in a different group, "Play Brothers". At the same time Bootie Brown was a backup dancer for Fatlip. - Before settling on the name "The Pharcyde", they considered two other names; "The Rappers" and "True Jigaboo". The latter serving as inspiration for the famous interlude, "Jigaboo Time".
Wait wait wait wait.... this video was directed by SPIKE JONZE?!? I never knew that one of my favorite songs of all time had its music video directed by one of my favorite directors of all time. His movie "HER" never fails to make me cry even after 10 viewings. I'll make sure to watch the documentary. Thank you so much for these facts, just had a newfound love for Fatlip and his music!
U really know ur stuff! Idk if u got it from wiki, but thanks for putting it out there! Idk ur nationality, but us melanated people when asked how we are, tons of us NOW say “coolin”! He should put this song out again!
You know the routine, when you winnin' they're grinnin' All up in your face, like they was wit' you from the beginnin' But on the flipside, when you're washed up like a riptide Fools clown 'bout how you slipped and let shit slide LOVE storytelling.
This is a phenominal colaboration of one of the greatest rap artists and one of the greatest directors. I have to say they have only improved further. There's an excellent documentary about the making of this video which really gives a unique look into whats up with fatlip, and it only makes you love him more.
I can't help but laugh at the chihuahua chase scene at the end, great video, I can still remember the first actual hip hop album I bought on cassette "Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde" back in '92, still bumpin it to this day
This song was featured on the Longboard Magazine tv show that use to play on Fuel. Just a great song, and I'm grateful for LBM for turning me on to it.
Nothing like smooth lyricists.. Been into rap / hip / hop / funk whatever you wanna call it over the years and when you're smooth.. you're smooth! What's up Fatlip?... Cooling.... You sure are.
Chopping bliggie on the table! My roommate Matt Hazzard and i used to watch this on the extras from Spike Jonzes music video collection. WHATS UP FATLIPS!
It took me a while to realize how honest and true these lyrics are, and I doubt we'll ever see anything as down to earth from fiddy or lil wayne when they are washed up and the shows over. loadsa respect for fatlip
thumbs up if you knew that fatlip is hip hop royalty.real hip hop that is.if you have not ever heard of the pharcyde ,you must be a hip hop rookie.he has spit somma tha best rhymes known and way before his time......yo fat keep droppin that stizzle you are tha man,know matter what ever happened bro.

LOVE storytelling.
That aint even a story.
@@cangrejopendejo4909 Well then if it’s not a story, what is it ? This sounds like a story to me
@@Righteous_E How is it a story? He's just explaining how people act.
@@cangrejopendejo4909
noun: story; plural noun: stories
1.
an account of imaginary or real people and events told for entertainment.
@@Righteous_E And what events took place in this "story"? Christ man you looked the definition up and still came back lol.

our pleasure, thank you for watching. yes, Fat Lip brings new meaning to "keeping it real".
Reminiscing to a time when I was younger with a hunger... My life.
Oh my lord. My friend and I would be up all night watching MTV2 just to see this. I love you.
I can't help but laugh at the chihuahua chase scene at the end, great video, I can still remember the first actual hip hop album I bought on cassette "Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde" back in '92, still bumpin it to this day
Certainly 1 of the most original music videos ever, hip-hop or otherwise
This is a work of fuckiing art and underrated. It’s so raw
word. thanks for checkin'in Rich. Be well.
