DJ Khaled and Nas shot the video for “Nas Album Done” in the Bahamas, complete with an appearance from Dancehall legend/actor Louie “Ox” Rankin. Both Nas and Rankin appeared in the 1998 film Belly, so this served as something of a cast reunion.
The Major Key album cut samples the Fugees and was widely regarded as an instant hit. Khaled says the visuals will be equally impressive, possibly the biggest video he’s ever shot.
Here’s some pics of the affair and yes, Nas has a cigar to complete his beach attire. The two also apparently went jet skiing in some high-end couture as well.
The “Nas Album Done” video does seem like it will be pretty epic. Will it be better than these classic Khaled visuals?
“No New Friends”
A classic 1990s party. Complete with Drake meme.
“Welcome To My Hood”
A street anthem with visuals to match. Khaled probably was dreaming of making a visual in the Bahamas one day, but made a pretty poppin’ video right in the hood.
“Hold You Down”
Plenty of product placement and cheesy inspirational lines. A mansion, a pool and pretty ladies: the epitome of a DJ Khaled video.
“I Got The Keys”
Maybe it didn’t live up to the hype, but this video was still pretty epic. Where else do you have Jay Z, Future, 2 Chainz, Busta Rhymes, Swizz Beatz, T.I., A$AP Ferg, Rick Ross and Pusha T all together? And a subtle message about the police makes this one deeper than Khaled’s typical party videos.
What’s your favorite DJ Khaled video? Let us know below.
Khaled needs to make a 2016 of out here grinding
You can tell Khaled really loves and respects hiphop. I don’t get why people hate him so much. He’s a good dude.
Nope “I Got the Keys” will be Khaled’s best video. Very profound video with a great message about black unity with everyone looking fresh to death. Nas is a homeless bum trying so hard to fit in with the rich class. People aren’t buying it, Nas. King HOV did a pro black video better than you ever could’ve done. “Nas Album Shelved” is more like it, no one wants that shit.
Hov this Hov that. Nas ethered Jay Z & every single Hip Hop fan with a brain is fiending for a new Nas album!!!
wow a black and white Jay Z video, where he wears a suit brags about drugs but secretly it’s a metaphor for success! How profound, thought provoking and new for Jay Z…. bahahahaha. Fucking lame, dude is 50 years old still drawing on drug distribution lyrics, yep we’ve seen you wear a suit with sun glasses in a black and white video. This must mean Jay Z is super serious guys. Hahaha fucking lame.
“trying so hard” You in a nutshell bro.
When was the last time Jay rapped with passion? I give you 10 years for a a decent answer XD
Between: How much money you got never outweights god given talent – you can’t buy this!
