This is the music video I directed for the "White Rapper" show. I had 2 hours to shoot it and 5 hours to edit. Talking about pressure but we won the challenge. Shout out to Persia, Sham'rock, Jus Rhyme and my dude Bushwick Bill aka Gangters Paradise. We smoked them fools. lolYoung Chris of the Young Gunz - Now or Never Directed by Choke No Joke
