SYDNEY — An Australian rapper who was a boyhood friend of Heath Ledger has released a music video the star directed shortly before his death.
N’fa Forster-Jones recently posted the 3 minute, 31 second-clip for his song "Cause An Effect” on his
YouTube and
MySpace pages, along with a video in which he explains how the project came about.
Forster-Jones, who had been friends with Ledger since they were toddlers in the Australian city of
Perth, said the video was shot in one day at Ledger’s beachside apartment.
"He gave me a call one morning, as he often did at crazy hours, and he’s like, ‘N’fa, I’ve got this idea for a video,’” the rapper says in the online posting.
"He was basically running around directing me each shot,” he said. "It was a really cool day.”
"Every day I count my blessings that I got to have him direct this piece of art,” he said.
The video was first shown at the
Rome Film Festival last month.
