post Old School Sundays: Hype Williams Music Videos

August 3rd, 2008

Hype Williams

I was searching for inspiration for this installment of Old School Sundays and simply thought of one thing I’m looking forward 2 - the first video from CRS for the “Everyone Nose RMX” and it’s directed by none other then the subject of 2day’s Old School Sundays - famed music video director Hype Williams. I did a little digging at his official website - hypewilliams.com - 2 look at his long list of music videos he has directed since the early 90s. Hype’s videos are always so artistic and unique that many hip hop and R&B artists pay big money 2 get him 2 direct the video for their latest single. So below, I found just a few of the many examples, including a couple old videos for classics by Nas and Puff Daddy (at the time) and one of Hype’s more recent videos for Lupe Fiasco’s “Superstar” (also lost in our archives). So take some time out and get hyped for what Hype has in store for CRS’ “Everyone Nose RMX!” Hah, I know.. hilarious. Enjoy!
