AND ALL THIS while being able show the peace sign!

Ghetto videos were cool! What about the classic shot of the kid playing ball with a milk crate nailed to a wall? or the shot of the fridge full of nothing but 40's?

For real, but it doesent get more ghetto than Tom Green's "Check the O.R." filmed in "Food City" at Jane & Finch Mall.

Dont forget hot tubs, quite a bit of them in a few hip hop rap videos.  I prefer the old school rap videos.  They're always in a basketball court, somebody's ghetto neighbourhood.  I still remember when Dream Warriors shot their video in Connections (Jane/Finch).  Those were the days.
