Raised in the notorious Magnolia housing projects in New Orleans and still a resident of the area, Juvenile returns to his hometown to remind viewers of the destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina. Footage from his tour will be used in a short documentary piece and in a video for the track, "Get Ya Hustle On." Unlike many of the artists who have participated in Katrina relief efforts, Juvenile was personally affected by the catastrophe. His home was destroyed and many of his relatives and friends were trapped in the city and suffered similar losses.

The Wallflowers "The Beautiful Side Of Somewhere" InterscopeJon Watts, directorDave Robertson, producerSmuggler, production companyLabuda Management, repDescription: Chief Wallflower Jakob Dylan spends most of this video on a meandering journey through corridors and stairways. Just when you think he's lost on his way to the stage (remember Spinal Tap's "Hello, Cleveland!" moment?) it becomes clear that Dylan is just trying to reach new heights. Occasionally he grabs his guitar and jams with his band, but he always puts it aside to get back on his climb to the top.
Head Automatica singer Daryl Palumbo will have the golden touch in the new video for "Beating Heart Baby." The band performs on a stage inspired by the lurid neon design of its Decadence album cover, while Palumbo turns everything around them into solid gold.artist: Head Automaticasong: "Beating Heart Baby"label: Warner Bros.director(s): Jon Wattsproduction co: Smugglerrep: Labuda Management
Jakob Dylan will be on a seemingly endless journey onward and upward in the first video off The Wallflowers first album in three years, Rebel, Sweetheart. Dylan climbs up a multitude of stairs and past a variety of odd scenes in his quest for something higher.
