Video: raekwon ft. Beanie Sigel & Blue Raspberry - Have Mercy



If your in the mood for a real, no frills, hardcore, grimey Hip-Hop vid than Rae and Beans got you...

For the official vid to "Have Mercy" Rae Rae and company get into some street shit, with the help of the Street Heat video team and Directors Littles (yes, that Littles) and WillC.

As the pain stoked vocals of longtime Wu songstress Blue Raspberry cascade across this modern masterpiece, the visuals harken back to better times when virtually every vid The Wu was making came out with that unforgettable 90's hardcore flavor and looked as if it was filmed by the guy that lived in the apartment upstairs rather than a legit director. Back then Rae wasn't really giving a flying duck whether or not the critics was feeling his vids, he did em' for his core audience and always won out that way.

"Have Mercy" doesn't stray too far from those original formula's that made the early Wu video's so memorable and that's the main reason I like it so much. Bump what is selling, and bump what's supposed to be "in", do it for the people. Rae's done just that here and Beans continues his streak of dope video performances as well with this cameo...
