VIDEO: "Always Strapped" Remix



We met Rick Ross recently at some random club in San Diego and got the feeling that dude always feels out of place everywhere no matter how hard he rocks that chain with his face on it. After watching this video, it's hard not to imagine him as some sort of a wallflower; that guy's just not fitting in anywhere. While Weezy, Jeezy, and Birdman are doing their respective things on this piece, what we like to think of as a throwback or ode to proto-Southern Rap Videos, Ross is just kind of bouncing around phoning in his verse. Must be tough to be seen as hip-hop's less attractive Donnie Brasco. Whatever. It really doesn't kill our undying love for Jeezy and expected yet completely unnerving shots of Birdman counting money on top of a rented car.
