...joins BFFs Bobby Valentino and Ludacris in stepping out of the pages. This unfortunately recalls the viewer to recall the latter’s Lilliputian role as elfin DJ Donnie in 2007’s “Fred Claus.” As members of his crew extol the virtues of cruisin’ down the block with jewels on they watch, the lyrics of such poeticisms are streamingly “printed” on the pages which now serve as the video’s sets.

Both extol the importance of a strong work ethic and advocate free markets--but with caveats. Both have a controversial nationalist bent: while Brown talks about the importance of "Britishness" and has openly resisted the idea of giving up the pound to join Europe's common currency, Sarkozy is seeking to establish tighter citizenship criteria for immigrants.
