So the big news here is supposed to be that Lil Wayne decided he wanted to make a video inspired by Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, right? Okay, just checking. The video for this Dedication 4i cut stays true to Hunter S. Thompson's vision of Vegas as a dystopian metaphor for the dashed American dream in pretty much zero ways, other than Lil Wayne and his homie Detail do kind of dress like Raul Duke and his heavyset Samoan attorney, stumble around Vegas a lot, and at one point they do indeed fight off a swarm of bats. No word on whether or not Weezy actually ingested acid for the shooting of the clip.
