But you won’t find gyrating booties or a waterfall of hundred dollar bills in this video, only Polaroid-style photo shots of Nas and his crew chillin’ through the years, while a mishmash of handwritten notes flutters across the screen. The video begins in silence, with a shot of a classic black-and-white notebook labeled “Nas Rhymes” opening up like a fairytale book.
