Exploring the world of America’s hip hop video vixens, ‘Hip-hop  Honeys‘ was shot by photographer  Brian Finke, who has become popular for his previous portraits of cheerleaders,  body-builders and frat boys.

According to the DailyMail, he captured the glamorous extras behind-the-scenes at video shoots in a variety of locations  including a Park Avenue hotel room and a Harlem cigar bar. The music video ladies posed up for the camera,  dripping in diamond-encrusted crosses and statement earrings. Most extras wore  extremely tight cropped tops and tiny shorts while others had stripped down to  racy lingerie.
