Clipse Pop Bottles With the “Doorman” (Video)

Yesterday the Clipse dropped their latest track of their long-long awaited new album "Till the Casket Drops" and today they're back for some more cash-drenched fun with the video to "Doorman". If you like breasts, alcohol and federal drug indictments, man do I have a video for you.



The Refined Take:

1) The scroll at the beginning of the video is a reference to the Feds arrest of the Clipse's former manager Anthony Gonzalez on drug conspiracy charges. For more info I break down the case at length here.

2) Far and away my favorite part of this video is watching Malice and Pusha-T try not to overtly stare at the overwhelming amount of cleavage surrounding them. I guarantee you there was more than a couple takes when the director had to say, "Guys, the camera's over here. Thanks."

3) If I'm not mistaken, those pictures of the drugs and money are real shots taken from Gonzalez' arrest. I have no idea if the man's guilty or innocent, but at the very least I think it's safe to say he wasn't making and selling Fischer Price toys.

4) What's up with the one guy who's got his face blurred in the car scenes? Seriously, it's just him. Does he have a warrant out, or just a girlfriend he doesn't want to know he spent a day hanging out at a rap video with a bunch of video girls?

5) Ultimately this video only further continues to make nervous about the release of "Till the Casket Drops". The Clipse are at their best when they're at their most criminal, and here they feel dangerously close to cliched money, girls and cars territory. In other words, the line between a Clipse video and Gucci Mane video is becoming uncomfortably slim.
