My Hollywood Hip-Hop Adventure.

My friend Alex Lemay (the director of Conversations With the Enemy, our in-progress doc, as well as Desert Bayou, in release now, and the guy I used to do political commercials with,) asked me to come out to Hollywood to be a second set of eyes on the set of this rap video shoot with Master P and his son, Romeo. (Formerly L'il Romeo.)

The video will be included in the Desert Bayou DVD.


On the Sony pictures lot, Jake and I walk past the
Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy sound stages.


Jake watching inapropriate videos
while we hang out with the extras.


Master P and Romeo playing to the camera.


Romeo getting some body make-up.


That'd be me. No body make-up.
