...video. “Surviving the Times” presents a scrapbook-style montage of images and memories from Nas’s life (and old videos). The video is so unpretentious and low-budget that if it weren’t for the occasional twinkle of old school bling or the sporadic glimmer of gold teeth, you might think you were watching an Indigo Girls video.
