Video: Chamillionaire's Hip-Hop Police/Evening News

Chamillionaire - Hip-Hop Police


Chamillionaire - Evening News

Cham got 99 problems but Bob O'Wildy ain't one.

In the 9-minute 2-part clip, Koopa plays three different characters: Hal Sharpless (hip-hop cop), Bob O'Wildy (news anchor), and Cashus Burns (reporter). Slick Rick will be in on the fun, playing Detective Jeffrey Jackson. They dropped plenty of clues with all those names, but I'm not too sure about Cashus Burns.

One thing, "When did BET start playing music videos again?"

Video: Can't Tell Me Nothing (Zach Galifianakis Remix)


No, Kanye didn't grow a beard, that's comedian Zachary Galifianakis acting a fool.

And here's the official remix of "Can't Tell Me Nothing," featuring Jeezy who just seems to have gained some extra bionic powers off of Saigon's "hottest MC" comment:

Video: Diddy - Through the Pain



It's been 9 months since Press Play hit the shelves, yet Diddy can't stop, won't stop caking off that album. "Through the Pain" is the fourth single and fifth video from PP. Now, you know damn well that Aasim can only hope for a $50 video budget when his album drops. (Sorry, were you saying something about Black Rob?)

Video: Diddy Needs a Personal Assistant


Now that Farnsworth Bentley has found a new job somewhere in Kanye's New York apartment, Diddy is looking for a new personal assistant via GooTube. If you decide to apply, be sure to scrutinize the paperwork so you don't end up paying him royalties 10 years down the line. Who knows, you could make like Mr. Bentley and graduate from wielding umbrellas to grabbing behinds.

Although I think it's going to be all bark and no bite with the hip-hop vote drive in the '08 election, this documentary looks super-official. "Deliverance" never sounded so fresh in years.
