Benz and a Backpack

“Public Eye” is a remake of the classic Brand Nubian track “All For One.” The video, directed by Jack Cearnal, places Cons literally in front of a giant 35mm camera, and while Cons performs his sizzling verse the lens displays images of what he’s rapping about. The deal-sealer for me was Cons’ ill reference to Rajon Rondo’s tough performance in this year’s NBA playoffs: “For me BS-ing is clearly not option/so I’m a keep ballin like I’m Rondo’s other elbow socket.” No movement on Movies On Demand 3, although “Public Eye” is definitely on it. Whatever the hold up is, this must be a poignant time for Cons given his recent beef with Q-Tip (and in light of the release of Michael Rapaport’s Beats, Rhymes and Life ATCQ documentary), as well as his issues with KanYe.
