Imagine: "Run This Town"

This new video for the much anticipated "Blueprint 3" release, was filmed at Fort Totten Park in New York. Here Jay-Z makes it clear that RocNation is in the building. Directed by Anthony Mandler and with a cast of over 80 extras, the visual production for “Run This Town” is far from the predictable dime a dozen hip hop video.

Mandler said he wanted to capture the "marching, war-like tone of the song". He succeeded by organizing “a chaotic account of militia-like entities revolting, complete with Molotov-cocktail explosions, riot-like activity and the high-powered trio of Hov, Kanye West, and Rihanna performing in the midst of it all.” Basically, a dope new video all around, it will def stir your IMAGination.
