"Alors ca te fait kiffer de filmer ca fils de pute?
Justice touches a nerve with the overtly violent "Stress."
I'll be the first to admit, it's a bit disturbing, but disenfrachisment can drive people to commit diplorable acts. "Violence becoming banality" as a theme should come as no surprise, the French media has struggled with this for decades. This is the kind of footage that was shown for months on end on the evening news during the Clichy-sous-Bois riots.
For a decidedly less violent look at Parisian street culture in music video form might I direct you to another Ed Banger artist, DJ Medhi's "Signatune," also directed by Romain Gavras.

Thumbs up on both videos. The video for "Stress" did an awesome job of capturing the sounds of the song. I really like when you see the guy carrying the boom mic for the first time, and you realize they are being portrayed as "filming their own" horrible behavior -- a commentary on self-videotaped crimes that pop up in the news now and again.
