Nanci O Is Hip Hop

 

Over the past few weeks, Raleigh, NC’s Joseph Headen aka Headgraphix has released Vine and Instagram gold with short, six second remixes of scenes from some of the 90’s top hip hop videos.

What makes each visual remix unique is Headgraphix—he makes a special guest “appearance” in every 90’s hip hop video. In Lil Kim and Lil Ceases’ “Crush On You”, you’ll see Headgraphx Diddy-bopping in front of the background dancers as they shimmy in their colorful wigs. Case and Foxy Brown’s “Touch Me, Tease Me” finds Headgraphix throwing his hands up to the beat. In Biggie Smalls classic “One More Chance”, Headgraphix slow grooves to the beat and same background drop that Faith Evans, Changing Faces, Patra and Miss Jones has.

Headgraphix has steadily built up a reputation as one of NC’s go-to designers, videographers, and web designers. Last year the visual creative quit his day job and continued to build his brand and business up even more to reach beyond the North Carolina hip hop community.

These video remixes Headgrahix returns to his hip hop roots and they are hilarious. The visuals are so seamless, you’d almost swear Headgraphix was in the original videos. The screenshot above doesn’t do it justice. I watched them several times just to remind myself he wasn’t in the original video.
