Classic New Orleans: Behind the Scenes of Birdman and Mannie Fresh’s “Designer Caskets” Video

Birdman and Mannie Fresh returned to their stomping grounds to shoot a movie for Designer Caskets!

Cash Money Records had a reputation in the early 00s for showing up and showing out in Uptown New Orleans. The energy of the city used to be amazing. We got a chance to experience that feeling this week when Birdman recruited legendary Director Benny Boom to film his video for Designer Caskets in the city.

The streets were filled with spectators as they organized and executed the visual in a timely manner. New Orleans needs more productions like this happening because they inspire the youth by showing them what’s out there. Luckily we had Dr. Clipz on the scene capturing the event as it unfolded.

Check out the small gallery we put together below!
