N.E.R.D.'s "Provider"

I'm not a big fan of everything the Neptunes have done, but they definitely have created their fair share of beats to shake ya azz to... and I'm really diggin' this video. Great story line and I love the socially relevant ending for these times.

Hope the link works:

I always thought it would make a good single. I thought the album was over with.

I dig most of their album In Search Of...although lyrically they're many times extremely sophmoric when it comes to the sexual content, instead of being clever with it.

Bobby James and Provider are twins, so I doubt they'll release it. Both are GREAT though.

Yes those were the two tracks that I was first drawn to when listening to the album. Bobby James has a great storyline. Definitely has a Virginia, non-urban, setting to it just they set the video for Provider.

It's so refreshing to see other locales represented in hip hop, cuz if I see another camera crew in Harlem with people frontin like they live here I'm gonna scream!
