H

H is for Hype Williams

He should have worn that puffy suit from the Missy Elliot video.

About 12-15 years ago, when it actually was the mid-90s, I hated every rap video I saw. And 12-15 years from now, when the mid-90s are born again in typical ironic/retro fashion, I will love every video this man has made (except maybe that Tupac Road Warrior ripoff one). He actually makes me want to listen to "Mo' Money, Mo' Problems." And he paradoxically makes me think that Busta Rhymes is not ugly by accentuating his ugliness.

I really think people should wear shiny, puffy suits and bug-eye goggles everywhere they go. If I ever become mayor of something, I'm going to make some day shiny, puffy suit day.

Word up, Puffy.
