Time Warp... 1999 : Unleash The Dragon | Sisqo

Circa 1999.

I remember seeing this video once before, only to never see it air again.  I recall the ''script', but not the Tatyana Ali cameo.  Thank God for the internet right?  Beanie Sigel is on the album version, but not featured in this video version.  Make it Hot and Da Kidd have their verses laced instead.  I got this album for Christmas that year and played it OD.  Even then, it was an undeniable classic debut and has aged even better.  Not the video though.

Tired of holdin' back

I'm about to let the drag attack
