Read more In 1997 indie rap super group Latyrx released the instant-classic "Lady Don’t Tek No." 19 years later, we made the official music video to help promote the release of Lyrics Born's greatest hits album.

We felt that the best way to communicate this song visually was through dance. Keep it simple and let the song move through you. That's the only direction dancer Halim Martinez needed to communicate how this song makes her feel. Starring: Halim Martinez / Director: Mark Austin Heim / Producer: R.
