    Way Back Wednesday: Busta Rhymes – ‘What’s It Gonna Be?! (Ft. Janet Jackson)’

    Written by Trent | Filed under Busta Rhymes,Janet Jackson,Way Back Wednesday

    This week’s Way Back Wednesday takes us back to 1999 with ‘What’s It Gonna Be?!’ by Busta Rhymes and Janet Jackson. Released as the 2nd single from the Rhymes’ ‘E.L.E. (Extinction Level Event): The Final World Front’, both the song and video are among the most memorable productions in  of the last 25 years.


    Busta rhymes f janet jackson – what s it

    Directed by Hype Williams, this video demonstrates the endless possibilities of Hip-Hop. Instead of rolling around in bed with a pair of hired strippers or smoking weed in front of a green screen, this clip took a completely different approach to bringing the lyrics of the record to life.

    In a post Missy Elliott world there is absolutely no reason why rappers have become so lazy with their videos. Regardless of the suffering economy, Hip-Hop acts need to push themselves further if they wish to standout from the crowd.

    Besides, if they can afford to rent cars, strippers and jewelry then they can surely make better videos. Real talk.

    Thoughts?

      True. Most rap videos are just the same. Rented cars, money, and half naked girls. Smh

      whoever left that comment saying that Janet is a flop and a hasbeen clearly has not done their homework! Go find out who’s current world tour has sold out in record time, go find out who has 35 number ones and is one of the biggest selling female artists of all time, go find out who’s career all of todays female artists are trying to emulate. Hasbeen?… Don’t make me laugh.
