Hip-Hop videos were fantastic when you were a growing teen, they were pretty much full of everything you wanted in life at that age: women, cars, money and alcohol. Although as the years went by and you carried on watching these videos, you realised things… the uglier the rapper the uglier the dancers, a woman would never get let into a swanky bar wearing that one-piece, a club owner would never let all that happen, and courvoisier tastes like shit. The harsh realities dawn on you as you grow up… and also jealousy sinks in because you realise that rapper is younger than yourself and he makes more money than you.
Enough of the bitterness though, its time to celebrate the greatest stereotypical rap videos that have ever graced your screen. There’s even a checklist below to help you. See how many you can point out.

Scantily clad females

Some form of special dance
-
A scene which is supposed to be funny but isn’t

Items of clothing with American sports teams on them
