I was the video commissioner at Penalty Records who helped get Diane Martel to direct this music video. So you are welcome! It was shot on location in Bushwick, NY as well as Washington Heights area
It Shock me Think about a little me.. Eternally I bleed ..Think of the Seed..That 1 verse convinced me to be a better Man and be in my Daughters life Back when this came out..Thank You Nore!
Was 12 when i 1st heard it been wit my Uncle Spencer n lil Johnny Northeast Baltimore n the 95 Acura Legend Now 39 yrs old now and put my son on with it .....But Rip Uncle Spencer n Lil Johnny thanks for everything💯
Henny Lopez On a tape! Man you are so lucky! I bet you can't buy this song no where now! Back in 97/98 the only access I had to purchase music was the Wall in Christiana Mall Delaware 45 minutes from my house and a place called Wonderland also in Delaware. You city people are so lucky. Small town life sucks!
I had this on a Clue mixtape ...early before the album came out when I was in Newport News, Va...Queensbridge and Lefrak soldiers on that TJ Swann meets New Edotion shit on the hook...Drivers Seat is the song playing on the end...I think Capone got locked up around this time!
I still have a vhs tape where i recorded loads of hip hop videos in 1997...this is on it but the video is a little longer...the full version of this video plays a few bars of Blood Money at the start before Closer starts
akinyele cameo ... I never noticed that before ... hell I never even noticed them jumping the wheel chair guy before. I must have been high as hell when this came on back in the days.
It basically was, the CD had this version of Closer and the tape,which I had,had the Closer Remix. Like a treat basically for those who bought the tape and those who bought the CD
My favorite joint off the album... If you dig deep enough you can find the original version with busta rhymes on it .. On the album you only hear his ad libs at the end
The vinyl re-issue has this version. I believe the promo/radio version of the vinyl has the Clark Kent (original) version, because on that original track, Noreaga says "chickens" instead of "bitches". This is just a guess, however. Both versions are dope, gotta love that R&B/Hip-hop crossover shit from the 90s. That's when they had it right! One.
correction this version was placed on the album shortly after release, but i dont know how long it was. But at that time i bought 2 copies at diff times, one had this the other had the original
There was like 3 versions of this CD. I borrowed a friends copy and it had the Sam Sneed Remix on it. Then later I borrowed another friends copy, it had the regular version, plus another song was different as well. When I bought my copy of the CD it had the Sam Sneed version, but it had another different track... I just don't remember which track it was. I'm thinking Thug Paradise was the different track...
Nore don't give his self enough credit as a Mc. He was one of the Best in his Era🔥🔥🔥🔥🫡😎💯
I must've played this video a million times back in the day smh. Late 90's was so special cause Rap had crazy visuals with the music

correction this version was placed on the album shortly after release, but i dont know how long it was. But at that time i bought 2 copies at diff times, one had this the other had the original
Penalty Records wanted me to make sure the director added the Capone visuals into the edit (Capone was still in prison at time)
There was like 3 versions of this CD. I borrowed a friends copy and it had the Sam Sneed Remix on it. Then later I borrowed another friends copy, it had the regular version, plus another song was different as well.
