See what I'm sayin'?
Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
All in video
"Canada" is one of those artists that could not have come out 10 years ago. As a director, his distinctive visual mix of found images, satanic imagery, sex, violence, funny and pop culture are very *dry heave* 'now'. Expect to see his name on the credits of some heavily funded pop bands soon. (He just joined the ranks of Partizan, the Wu-Tang clan of directors, after his internet succes with El Guincho) For now, his work has been coupled to lesser known artists, like Triangulo De Amor Bizzaro.
A visual mixtape for all of you who are working late and sleepingwalking early. To be played in sequence.
I normally don't post mixtapes before I've played them a couple of times, but hell: I know i'm gonna be blasting this one in the car while I put up my deuces and burrrr home for the weekend.
The best Dutch Hip Hop collective ever are lording it over the countryside in their new video for 'Sterrenstof'.
Angels crashing to earth and setting fire to a forest plus loads of Kanye lyrics to discuss, including 'looking like a full booty Celine Dion".
This collabo makes total sense. 'Beer' rhymes with 'Burrr!'.
Lyrics that made me laugh in this song: "I'm drunk like Paul McCartney" (rhymes with 'party' and 'charlie') and "Make a milli. Gettin' stupid, gettin' chilly. Drinkin' beery." Props to Big Boi for doing a cameo, too.
M.I.A. bought a new URL called http://yesthelittlepeoplewillneverwinbuttheycanfuckshitup.com/ and posted what everyone is calling her new video for 'Story To Be Told' on it. Seems more like stage visuals to me. I'm sure she wouldn't mind me saying you can make up your own mind: click the link and get ready to be dropped down a rabbit-hole of infinite computer clutter.
A mixtape of slowed down rave and re-animated pop corpses, creating something wicked (yeah, that's right, I'm bringing back 'wicked') and cruel. Watch mind-blowing Cosmotropia de Xam videos to zombie versions of Abba, Lady Gaga and more.
I don't really get why everyone keeps talking shit about M.I.A. I was watching the new (not Hype Williams-directed) video for XXO on Vulture, whose resident blogger seems to be offended by M.I.A. not smiling throughout the video. Really? That's your critique? You have to smile in a video to make it?
If those Hollywood types think they can make me post a viral for their new movie "The Other Guys" with Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg just because Eva Mendes is in it and (kind of) singing and (kind of) dancing with Cee-Loo Green, they're... well... completely right!
"Screams from the haters/got a nice ring to it/I guess every superhero need his theme music."
