Birdman is on both of these tracks. Check out the official music video below after the jump…
Video Synopsis: In the Colin Tilley directed video, the YMCMB trio post up in a warehouse. Wayne breaks out hamming it up on skateboards, Birdman pops the bottle of bubbly and Mack comes in wearing dark shades. Pay attention to the video, and you will also notice cameos from some of YMCMB’s family members Busta Rhymes, DJ Khaled and Lil Twist. Don’t forget about the interesting product placement seen throughout the video from its alcohol beverage sponsor Birdman’s GTV Vodka. There is also some satanic imagery with Mack throwing up a awkward “hail Satan” hand sign and a strange millisecond when his eyes are alien size huge. Its really creepy…
In August 2010 a YouTube video called “Birdman’s Bigger Than Life Photo Shoot” was uploaded (seen above) The mixtape also has a guest appearance by rapper Game. Baby has revealed as of April 2012 that a compilation mixtape between Lil Wayne and Drake is in the works, should be finished and pushed to release sometime in mid-June. It’s also rumored to be called “Hate It or Love It” or “Respect”.
The same product placement you see in the behind the scenes picture above via Instagram posted by Birdman and Rick Ross on May 13th, while they were on the set of their new upcoming video for “Born Stunna.” Are the same things we will be seeing for most of his future videos. Why is this important and what is GTV? Grand Touring Vodka is a brand name of popular vodka by Birdman, with tag line: “Know When to Pass.” The Neutral Spirit Distilled from a Proprietary Blend of Premium Grain. Bottled by The Grand Touring Vodka Company, Winter Park, FL. Birdman recently did an interview with Celebrity Access revealed in a interview, “I always wanted to do different businesses, but I like to be hands-on. I don’t want to be not a part of my business because I feel that I can run them better. I know how to do the things that I need to do. So I just wanted to do enough businesses that we can run; that we can be involved with; that we can market. I also now have a liquor deal too. I just did a deal with GT Vodka (Grand Touring Vodka).” Birdman has shown he is the man and dominating the business and music industry.
Here’s another brand new music video for the Rick Ross assisted “Born Stunna.” album due out this Summer. In the Derick G directed music video, Birdman shows off what he’s got. He and Rick Ross pulled up to a porvate vault in their Maybach’s, with a slew of Brinks trucks on tow. Each carrying bags of cash, gold bricks and coins. Stack a hundred million and another hundred coming. Money, money and more money bags coming through. Birdman’s approximately worth $400 million and counting. What do you all think about his videos?
