What to do when Lil Wayne’s song gets pulled from the net? Cover it and assemble an incredibly talented, inspiring group of people to make a video that’s proven to be a one-take shot at fame. A burgeoning New York rapper with some serious style, Nyle is suddenly the talk of the town, with several upcoming shows sure to be filled with record label A&R types.

The magic is not only in the video’s star, however. Take a peak at the clip and see some other excellent performers, as well as an NYU student/director who is sure to be getting offers to make bigger and better videos.
