Music video[]

The music video was released in 1995 and was done after Wright's death, it shows various footages of him and pictures. The music video features cameo appearances by MC Ren, DJ Yella, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Too Short, Kadeem Hardison, Bokeem Woodbine, Above The Law, BG Knocc Out, Gangsta Dresta, The Pharcyde, Rudy Ray Moore and many more.

In the music video, Bokeem Woodbine plays a rap artist named 'Eric' who refuses to fairly pay another artist, played by Kadeem Hardison. In the video, Hardison's character grows angrier because he doesn't get his fair share of money & calls Eric out on his selfishness. Hardison's character would eventually try to murder Eric, but instead gets shot by Eric's assistant, which turned out to be a false memory.

This music video was an allegory of Eazy E's & Dr. Dre's money dispute, therefore Hardison's character is based on Dr. Dre or any other artist that Eazy paid less than him.
