The Video:
Last week, Clear Label Records rapper Dolla Will released the video for "Addicted," the second single off his forthcoming album, Boss Flow, planned for release later this year. Today, the Bay Area emcee is releasing another visual, this one for "Busy (Getting Money)," a single off of Will's pre-album mixtape, Life Before Dolla Will, that features fellow Clear Label Records artist and Oakland native, Beeda Weeda.
The video, which, like "Addicted," was directed by Hiero's own Casual for his Wet Foot Filmworks video production company and features a cameo from Too $hort, who also appeared on the lead single from Boss Flow, "Work That Body," shows Dolla Will and Beeda Weeda in an old-school office, doing what they do best: making their money. And, of course, each rapper has their own stunning secretary, doing her best to turn the rappers' focus away from work and onto them. They have one thing on their minds, though, as Will chants in the chorus, "I'm busy getting money, bitch don't fuck with me!"

The
Background:
In Oakland, California's music scene rappers come a dime a dozen. But very few have the chops to claim MC lineage dating back to the golden era of Oakland rap. Veteran MC Dolla Will embodies the energy of a new-school rapper combined with the heritage of starting his career with bonafide Oakland legends Too $hort and the Hieroglyphics crew. Will was featured on Too $hort's albums Independence Day, which earned him a gold plaque, and You Nasty, and continued to reach his fans with features and collaborations with E-40, Petey Pablo, Lil' Jon, and Bay locals Casual, Beeda Weeda, and San Quinn, and producers like Ant Banks and Traxamillion. Dolla Will is currently working on his upcoming album, Boss Flow, which is being released through Clear Label Records.
