Video: Beanie Sigel f. Styles P, “You Ain’t Ready”
- story THE FADER
Rik Cordero is a damned visionary. Or at least he listened to our incessant requests for more videos of dudes standing on sidewalks in the cold with all their friends and rapping really well. NO FRILLS. This also happens to be one of our favorites off Beanie’s The Solution which hits stores next week.
Video: Consequence, “Breakfast of Champions”
- story THE FADER
“Breakfast of Champions” is another solid Consequence video from Rik Cordero following on the heels of last summer’s “Uncle Rahiem” and solidifying Rik as the next great gimmick king. After Hype Williams’ fisheye lens revolution of the mid-90s, Cordero’s use of filters on a low-cost high-def digital camera has changed the rap video game this year and hopefully will lead to more videos for more artists made not so much for television but spaces like right here and OnSmash where this premiered last night.
Video: Joe Budden, “Star Inside of Me”

If anybody needs a hug in this video it’s Joe not that little girl. She seems fine. Another Rik Cordero miracle.
