Like a late Christmas gift given to you by your out of town aunt, a new video surfaces that’s actually not so new, but it’s incredibly dope nonetheless.
We’re talking about visuals for the Beastie Boys‘ cut ‘Too Many Rappers,’ featuring Nas, off the group’s 2011 album ‘Hot Sauce Committee Part Two.’
Reportedly, the video was discovered by a Beastie fan, and it eventually ended up on the website of Neal Usatin, an editor who’s worked with the group in the past.
Overall, the clip finds all four rappers exchanging bars back and forth, as they walk around town spitting inside a grocery story, a park, the studio, and on stage.
Why the video was never released until now is a mystery, especially since it came out so good, but better late than never, right? Also, it’s great to see group member Adam Yauch, aka MCA, rapping, as he tragically passed away in 2012.
In addition, there’s also a good amount of concert footage in the clip, which shows the Beasties and the Queensbridge legend rock the stage for a large, and presumably very happy crowd.
The video was directed by Roman Coppola, who did a stellar job of capturing the three man group in their natural element, which is performing in front of the camera rapping skillfully, and being extremely comedic.
