FAM-LAY, "Da Beeper Record" (video)

by: Julianne Shepherd

Finally a video for Fam-Lay's smokin single.

FAM-LAY's minimalist d-boy tale "Da Beeper Record" has been floating in internet-space for over a year - but even after living so long in the ether, the track still hits right where where it hurts - gut, head and booty - Neptunes' trampoline sub-bass bopping along FAM's coolly delivered dope-maxims and wordplay.
Hype Williams shot this photomontage like a scrapbook of last night's parties, making even Pharrell look kinda hard, and showing the song's high-low, ballin/runnin storyline. It's sort of Paris Hilton sextape-meets CIA surveillance pictures-meets myspace photo album, and - respect to Hype, but - makes up for that messy Nelly/Janet Jackson video. Read more about Fam-Lay, and his forthcoming record Dat Missile, in our September 2007 issue.
