Two videos were made for Money Don't Matter 2 Night, one directed by Spike Lee, which has footage (shot in black and white) of a family trying to make ends meet, interspersed with images of the great depression in the 30s, and poverty and unimpolyment in the 80s and 90s. President George Bush, National Security Advisor Colin Powell, general Norman Schwarzkopf Jr. and (by then) businessman Donald Trump, are also in the footage, as well as images of wealth (a casino, a ball), and shanty-town Soweto, the 1990 war in Irak and refugees. The footage has some lyrics to the song overlaid in red, blue and yellow.
