For those of us who have been waiting with baited breath to see Rick Ross on a hovercraft, Birdman has answered our prayers. The video for "100 Million" is big-budget rap video at its goofiest; explosions, CGI doves, and those little words on the lower left hand of the screen that explain who's flying in a helicopter.
Birdman, who contributes a pretty wack verse in the middle of the track, has very little to do with the song. In case you didn't get the song's message, it ends with a brief summary: "Cash Money Millionaires! Cash Money Billionaires! Cash Money Trillionares! We're Rich!" Musically the high point comes when Jeezy rolls through at about 2/3 of the way in to (almost) save the song alongside Lil Wayne. Still...Rick Ross on a hovercraft.

This begs the question: Better hovercraft pilot- Rick Ross or Frank Black? |

Also that horrible CGI explosion at the end was great.Also, nothing is funnier than seeing a dude in his 30s flying his gang colors when he didn't join the gang until his 30s. Corny |

At least Birdman didn't actually transform into a gigantic CGI dove.The explosion at the end reminds me of an amazing example of CGI from a commercial that also happens to use a van going out of control: http://thatvideosite.com/video/4093 |

T-pain is a bitch I hate all these new songs with t-pain on em. Other that that and the birdman verse sick song |
here's my summary...Birdman is being interrogated. the woman addresses him as Mr. Birdman. then DJ Khaled and does that thing he does yelling stuff. there is money talk and expensive stuff along with a few scantily clad girls thrown in for good measure...actually i don't wanna summarize any more. but i'll add that seeing Rick Ross on a hovercraft made my day.
