New work from LA-based Zambezi for bling outlet Phiten has some fun with the history of bling as told by rap trio Pac Div. The video, which has Pac Div in a classroom, also stars NBA players Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, Eric Gordon and Derrick Williams.

Called Still Flexin, the video “guides viewers through time from Ancient Egypt to the Golden Age of Hip Hop.”
