Handsome Boy Modeling School

Couldn't find most of the tracks from this Prince Paul/Dan the Automator collabo I was looking for. This is one of their best known from the first album, J-Live's verse is sick about midway thru. Below this I posted my favorite song by him. Sick lyricst that gets slept on.


Fuck tha Police

Skaters Vs. Portland Security Guards | Transworld Skateboarding

Although it's hard to tell, I think agressive security guards try to yoke a kid up he starts struggling. Then his friends start pushing the guards, and one of the guards hits a kid over the head with his own board. Then rather than fight back, the kid slaps the guard in the face, then proceeds to get beat down.

Deltron 3030

Before Del and Dan the Automator got involved in the Gorillaz, they made a pretty epic concept album on their own. One CD I'd def purchase if I came across it, worthy of a post...
opening track




was gonna limit the videos, but theres so many of good tracks on this, I left like 4 off...

I might have to follow up with some Handsome Boy Modeling School while I'm on the Automator's shit.
wasn't really feeling the Mariah Carey beat the first time I heard this, but it's really not bad...

The Blow Yourself Up series of modified skate decks are pretty cool too. They boards can all ride on the street, because the modifications are all done at the same level of the trucks, so the wheels have enough room to function. There are pipe bombs attached and switches hardwired for the skater who needs to take himself out.

Flight of the Conchords End TV Show


"While the characters Bret and Jemaine will no longer be around, the real Bret and Jemaine will continue to exist."

Bummer city: After two televison seasons and two albums of quirky musical comedy, the Flight of the Conchords guys are calling it quits. "We won't be returning for a 3rd season," wrote the duo on their official site. "While the characters Bret and Jemaine will no longer be around, the real Bret and Jemaine will continue to exist."

Lots of people talk about quitting successful endeavors while they're still successful, but few actually do it, so kudos to Flight of the Conchords for not fading away. Their legacy will live on in CD and DVD form for hundreds of years.

This unofficial MGMT video "is unsafe for those under the age of 18 years to view without parental guidance and possible explanation." I didn't embedd it for that reason, but here's the link.
