The standard format of music videos for movie soundtrack cuts—where the musicians are just intercut with footage from the film—is fairly rote. It also likely peaked back in 1991 when Axl Rose was targeted by the Terminator for rocking too hard. You can still make a good one of these clips, though, as Danger Mouse, Run the Jewels, and Big Boi have proven with "Chase Me," their selection for Edgar Wright's caper Baby Driver.Some scenes are worked in there, yeah, but a lot of the video is the featured musicians looking just as badass as the stars themselves. El-P raps in the backseat as Danger Mouse serves as a getaway driver, while there are some great shots of ATL legends Killer Mike and Big Boi mobbing as they cruise through the night. Watch the "Chase Me" video above.Phil is a Noisey staff writer. He's on Twitter.
