3OH!3's "My First Kiss" featured on So You Think You Can Dance

Categories: Moving Pictures

While we always suspected that you could really cut a rug to 3OH!3's music -- especially "My First Kiss," the first single from the outfit's new album, Streets of Gold, and the video of which also earned the outfit another MTV VMA nomination earlier this week -- now we have proof, thanks to Kent Boyd and his partner Anya Garnis.

They're the couple who did an impressive little cha-cha-cha to the tune last week on So You Think You Can Dance. Now Fred Astaire we are not (there's a reason we chose the word "suspected" above), but just the same, when dude's miming kissing her around the 1:08 mark, doesn't it look like he's trying to pop off her head like a spiteful younger brother mistreating his little sister's Barbie?

Breathe Carolina: I Don't Give a Fuck ... or do I?

Breathe Carolina fans already know what "I.D.G.A.F." stands for -- no need to spell things out for them. For everyone else, though, "I.D.G.A.F.," the acronym, is short for "I Don't Give a Fuck." And while we hate to suggest otherwise, it's seems pretty clear from watching the act's slick, new, babe-stocked and confetti-filled video (posted after the jump), that Breathe Carolina does, indeed, give quite the fuck.

Pokémon rap song gets all the Mankey in with innuendo

Categories: Moving Pictures

Sometimes it's not so much about the music as it is the idea. Case in point: The above song, "The Birds and the Beedrills," by White Licorice and Sad Panda, is not a good rap song. It doesn't have particularly intriguing beats. It does, however, manage to pack in the names of 151 Pokémon (for those of you that may have forgot, they are the brightly colored monsters-in-a-ball that made their biggest strike on American checkbooks in the '90s) into the song in form of sexual innuendo.

Baby juggalo and ICP progeny Violent JJ breaks our brains and hearts

Categories: Moving Pictures

It has been a while since we've seen a new genre on the music scene, but thankfully miniature-juggalo Violent JJ, who is the son of adult juggalo and Insane Clown Posse member Violent J has given us baby-wrestling-rap, or BWR for short. It's a new form of music that melds the trials and tribulations of being a baby juggalo with wrestling in the format of rap music and it's on the brink of taking over the world. The video itself did a number on our brains, making it impossible to come up with more than one fully realized paragraph -- see our broken down thoughts after the jump.

20:12 video release party at Casselman's offers slightly different hip-hop experience

20:12 Mixtape and Video Release Party
07.30.10 | Casselman's Bar and Venue

Maybe it was the free vodka. Or maybe it was the hundreds of ladies dressed to the nines. Or perhaps it was the unmistakable family vibe. Hard to say. Whatever it was, though, 20:12's release party at Casselman's on Friday night came off as something different all together. For starters, you couldn't help but notice how the numbers swayed noticeably in favor of the fairer sex; there were far more ladies on hand than at most local hip-hop shows.

3OH!3: My first Live with Regis and Kelly appearance went a little like this.

Categories: Moving Pictures

Live! with Regis and Kelly? Naw. We're good. Not that anybody's asking us, but if they were, we'd have to take a pass. That's just us, though. What do we know? Hell, it was probably pretty cool to meet someone who was actually around when dinosaurs roamed the earth (just joshing there, Reeg), and have him tell you you look just like Tom Brady (Sean Foreman) or that you're a dead ringer for Howard Stern, only not quite as tall and with less curls (Nat Motte). Anyhow, here's what you missed this morning on daytime television while you were chained to your desk daydreaming about the weekend: Here's 3OH!3 doing "My First Kiss" and "Don't Trust Me."

A sneak peek at 20:12 and Spoke In Wordz' "Por Aqui Por Alla"

​Oh and speaking of local hip-hop videos: We just got a sneak peek of the new 20:12/Spoke In Wordz video for "Por Aqui, Por Alla." Premiering tonight at Casselman's, the clip is directed by esteemed director Eric Heights, from a track from 20:12's self-titled album, which carries a timely message of social justice and unity.

The current controversy surrounding Arizona's new immigration law makes the associated video particularly timely, and the unity part is rooted in "the need for Latinos to rise above the oppression we face in this country," says Spoke.

"The video was shot in various locations," he goes on to explain, "a horse ranch in Thornton, downtown Denver by the Ritz Carlton and yes La Raza park. The concept of the video is pretty much supposed to show different scenarios that we as Latinos participate in, such as working in the ranch, how we unite to protest, our traditions with lowriders; the cage scene represents how society sometimes makes us feel caged as criminals."

Behold the beauty of Liquid Crystals with music by Vitamins and Danny Shyman

Categories: Moving Pictures

Have you seen this yet? It recently started making its way around the internet. If not, it's totally worth six minutes of your time. This is one of three videos that Vitamins and Danny Shyman of Josephine and the Mousepeople scored. Presumably taking a cue from Yo La Tengo, who created and performed music to accompany the films of Jean Painleve, an French filmaker known for his underwater documentaries, the musicians wrote an original score for Painleve's 1978 film, Liquid Crystals.
