MUSIC VIDEO: QUEEN LATIFAH ft. MISSY ELLIOTT - “FAST CAR”
Saturday, October 17, 2009
Peep the new video from Queen Latifah and Missy Elliott entitled “Fast Car”. Not really feeling the track myself, but the cameos from Jadakiss, Angie Martinez, Paula Patton, Robin Thicke, Common, and producers Cool & Dre were a good look.

What’s up with everyone rocking these Voltron, Beam Me Up Scottie plastic ass jackets/jump suits? She look like Megatron in that jacket.

Anyway… don’t like the song, but she looks nice except for that jacket. Wish she’d go back to rapping.

LOL!!!! at comment 1! I really want Latifah to get with it. She did the jazzy thing that was nice but i’m not really feeling this.

… when she sang “its alright” she was at her best and that must’ve been 10 years ago.

What. In. Gods. Name. Is. This. Shit?
I HATE the beat, HATE her “singing”, and this video..GROSS. Don’t even get me started on the little excerps of auto-tune.

…people say they want rappers to be classy but the sad truth is…that. they. do. not. I think this is classy and fun but unfortunately unlikely to hit…”sigh”

Queen! Why did she pick this song for a single? The rest of her album is really good, she shoulda picked any track but this one.

I like it. It’s fun without the gratuitous bs that we commonly see. See this is the problem you want respectful fun music and people trash it. It seems like it’s a no win for some artists. I wouldn’t pigeonhole the queen; she is too dynamic for that. A “real artist” doesn’t have to be slow or serious all the time.

I like the concept of the song, should it have been Queen latifah singing? Not so sure.. seems like an imitation of LAROUX… She might just be a fan of hers.

i agree, vid looks like one big product placement vehicle…but otherwise i don’t think she did this song for the urban liseners, it has more of a pop, cross over “move it” station vibe…like that sean kingston-type crap. young non-black listeners love crappy music, lol

I don’t see nothing wrong with the vid or the song. You have to take the song for what it is, a fun up tempo beat to let loose and party to. What, not y’all taste cause it didn’t mention weed, guns, alcohol, hoes, ass shaking, or a baby mama?

…Missy and Queen together? Nah…IF they are gay I suspect they would both go for the more femme types of ladies…no offense intended, but they are both too butch to go for each other…IMHO…

Woah, the video is super sleek and glam, but it’s weird to be looking at a “sexy” Queen Latifah..
It’s like I’m not ready yet lol jk
But I love her eye makeup and lipstick. And the outfit she wears when she’s with Missy compliments it very well.

I wasn’t impressed with the video but I do like the song. I wanted to see more. If there was a signature dance maybe it would have saved the video.

i understand she is trying to be different but she has much better songs on her new cd….the whole video seemed like marketing for ford…it wasnt even a saleen mustang or cobra so its hard for me to picture it a fast car…this song will not increase her album sales…which the first week i think she sold like 20k.

i don know why people mad????
Queen has nothin 2 rap about 2day
back in the day she was rappin bout real shiiii
she was on some important topics
music has changed 2day
4 her 2 please 2day’s music lovers
im not sure she’ll want 2 be on about some poppin lip gloss
and all the crazy randomness that rappers are doin 2day
even on the male side with Soulja boi and all
there are the ones gettin sucsess on bullshii.
I think singing i workin 4 her she got some real fans out there
from day 1 she will get somethin outter it.

Wow, “dykes”? Homophobia is nothing to be proud of…it’s just as disgusting as racism. Grow up and critique the song…not that personal life of the artist.

I think the video is good it nothing wrong with tryna to try something new I like b/c its different Its not the same ole same thing you hear all the time on the radio these days
I glad she trying new things. She is probably one of the only people from back in the day that is still tryna be out in the music scene and I commend her for that

Now this right here…. That’s HOT! The song is clearly built around an expression that everyone who has ever really lived can identify with.
So they (again) stepped away from the mold boldly. But haven’t haven’t ya’ll been paying attention? That is what these particular people have been doing and that’s why we love them.
Hat’s off to ya’ll for trying and actually doing something note worthy yet again.
Ya’ll haters can just keep on hating like it’s the only thing ya’ll know how to do but I know for a fact that they still love ya despite your arrogance or attempts at put-downs.
Yes.. I have seen the basic video concept before, but that does not take away from how well this was executed or it’s suitability for this song. Yes there are things I would have added to this video to make it pop more explicitly. (No I am not talking about adding sex, swearing or violence.) But I didn’t do the video, they did I like it.
Missy and Latifah both have done more exciting videos but this video has a cast I respect. Anyone would to well to pay attention. It does not matter what they wear because these two ladies here always (and I do mean ALWAYS!) look great.
Hot! And they respect themselves unlike most of ya’ll (and I wish you’d learn from these to pioneers). These two do themselves to and never play themselves out of position just because it’s become the popular thing to do.
Peace of God, success, and much love to the Queen Latifah, Missy, Common and crew.

I co sign @Bracesoff’s whole statement. Some of you are ghetto thru and thru - DIVERSIFY
“”I don’t see nothing wrong with the vid or the song. You have to take the song for what it is, a fun up tempo beat to let loose and party to. What, not y’all taste cause it didn’t mention weed, guns, alcohol, hoes, ass shaking, or a baby mama?”"
