SCEA has announced that the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, and Criterion's Burnout Paradise will all feature in Wyclef Jean's next music video, 'Fast Car'.

And if you're wondering why it's Wyclef Jean, that's because he's signed to Sony BMG, the company's record label.

The music video will be made available on PlayStation Store from March 27th. You'll also be able to download it to your PSP via the Store for PC. It'll only feature for a limited time so be sure to check it out.

"As an artist, Wyclef Jean is a great match for the PlayStation brand, and
SCEA is excited about working with him on this music video because it
showcases our platforms in an organic way that's relevant to our audience," said Peter Dille, senior vice president of marketing and PlayStation Network.

"We're also looking forward to giving our PlayStation Network members the opportunity to download the video in high-definition, which expands the entertainment content offering on PlayStation Store."

Wyclef Jean begins the video by receiving a message on his PSP. This will direct him to his PS3, which will use Burnout Paradise as the video's visual backdrop. PlayStation Eye will also feature in Wyclef's follow up to 'Sweetest Girl'.

We have a feeling it will be restricted to the US Store, but we know all you cunning PSU readers will find a way to get your hands on it...

    in my opinion, a song that would explain the current feel of playstation brand, is the online menu music of tekken 5 DR, its real, sleek and smooth,

    This music video sure is going to give the PSP and the PS3 some extra exposure. I'm  pretty sure the PS3 AD's will be picking up around the release of GTA4, and MGS4.

    Have you been under a rock Babiloo? Wyclef has been around for a long time,ever since the Fugees,which was in the early 90's.

    Wyclef was featuring in TI's newest cd. I started to like him then. This video should be good and will help Sony advertise the PS3 and PSP.

    People see Wyclef (their fav singer) playing a PSP, so they go out and buy a PSP. Simple as that.

    He's got some great tunes, I especially like " Sweetest Girl ” and the music videos.
