Watch BTS Footage From Mount Westmore's "Motto" Video Shoot

Watch BTS Footage From Mount Westmore's "Motto" Video Shoot

Published Wed, January 4, 2023 at 10:45 AM EST

Mount Westmore (E-40, Snoop Dogg, Too $hort, and Ice Cube) shared behind-the-scenes clips from their upcoming new video "Motto" directed by Marc Wood and Robert Redd from their self-titled project which dropped in December.

In the clips, you can see the four legends hanging out on set, all smiles, as they deliver visuals for a standout track on the album (which landed on ROCK THE BELLS' Favorite Albums of 2022 list). In one clip, E-40, who's always up for giving game advises everyone to "Play your position and eventually you'll get moved up," as Snoop agrees in the background.

Snoop and 40 also pay homage to Too Short's classic, "Life Is Too Short," rapping the first verse to the song as they hang around waiting for their next shot to be set up.

Late last year, E-40 talked with ROCK THE BELLS about linking up with his long-time friends for the album. "When I understood how good of a business decision it was, I didn't realize it was gonna be this much fun," the Vallejo vet said. "Literally, the first time we walked out on stage together, it just was so far away from work as possible. And we even had to have a meeting about, 'hey, stop fanning out on each other onstage and kind of focus.' We doing the show, do the show because it was that much fun that I'm getting caught up in the show. I'm not even on the show. So that was unexpected for me. I didn't realize that much. It was gonna be this goddamned good!"
