Erick Sermon – Stay Real
Erick Sermon – Stay Real (1993)
Directed by: Brett Ratner
A defiant East Coast hip‑hop anthem, “Stay Real” sees Erick Sermon holding down his authenticity with laid‑back flow and funk‑infused production, sampled from Zapp and carried by his smooth streetwise swagger. The video—directed by Brett Ratner—visualizes Sermon’s solo baptism with clean, confident visual style that heralds his emergence outside of EPMD.
