Do you like Daft Punk? Do you have an hour of free time on your hands? Do you want to see the type of musical movie that every great musical group should try and make at some point in their career, using only their work to narrate an entire film?
If you’ve answered yes to all three of these questions, then the next power move is to press play on the bad boy below. Essentially, it’s an animated film using only Daft Punk songs to narrate the entire thing. It’s incredible how many emotions are conveyed with songs, and this is some pretty trill evidence that proves the statement in the first clause of this sentence to be correct.
Fast forward to 1 minute and 15 seconds deep, and enjoy.
If you want an HD quality version for your computer, holler at me, I’ve got it on deck.

BRO FRANKLIN IS BACK! My favorite uncle, notorious for his ability to pop and lock better than anybody on his home continent. This latest episode is him crashing an album release party at the church. He literally takes over. I don’t even think he’s supposed to be up on stage. Talk about the holy ghost.

If you don’t know about grime music, you’re about to be put on. Half my family lives in London, so I was put onto the early acts like So solid Crew (which are actualy more part of the garage genre, but that’s another blog post) at a young age. Now the game has evolved, and you have these guys murdering microphones with wreckless abandon.
Take the time out of your day to hear these guys spit. JME, Skepta, and Frisco. Frisco’s the weakest link (you’ll know who he is soon), but he is still doing the damn thing. If you don’t appreciate it, I don’t know what to tell you. Things should start to get crazy around 3:20, when JME starts to spit.
I’ve been posting some grime music occasionally. If you’d like, just give me some feedback, and I’ll put you on to some other stuff. I recently put up JME’s new(ish) video for “Over Me”, which is available on iTunes now. I bought it. Give me your thoughts! Can this genre make it to the US? Bonus video (it’s actually ridiculous. Skepta spits for 9 minutes straight. @DrSpaceMan put me on.) after the drop (aka press “continue reading”. ASAP.)

I’m over at my man Aris‘ crib, and he puts me onto the newest artist he’s working with, Desert Storm Ent’s Young Dose. I guess this joint came out a little while ago, but it goes pretty hard. Doesn’t hurt that Fab and Ricky Ross lend verses to the joint, either. I can see this joint being a trunk rattling anthem in muscle cars and Range Rovers in states below the Mason Dixon line. Oh, and can we bring Fab’s intro line back real quick? “I get that Rihanna money / f**k it up like Chris Brown / No Disrespect to RiRi / Not putting Chris down…”
Lord. @BoutDatMoney thinks he looks like a light-skinned version of Chamillionaire. LOL. Enjoy.

All good things must come to an end. Maestro goes out with a bang in this final webisode of his incredibly well-executed series. See you next season, Maestro.

Yeah, you heard me. My man from “Smart Guy”. The homie who has two of the baddest twin sisters in the history of twins. Not only is he still kicking, but he’s pursuing a singing career, and HE’S PRETTY DAMN GOOD! Listen to him kill Michael Jackson’s “Dirty Diana” real quick, I think you’ll be impressed.
I’m interested in what else he’s about to put out. I heard his single, but there’s too much auto-tune, Tahj! I hear the potential though, and I want to see if he can Drake it out and make the transition to a new part of the entertainment industry.

This is a huge, huge video to me because if you went back to the now-defunct DCtoBC.blogspot.com, you’d see that the first post I ever made for the site was on Uffie and this song, amongst others. We also played this song first on the first ever DC to BC radio show way back when. Now, 1100+ posts and 1.5 years later, she’s dropped a video for it. Finally. Why wasn’t I alerted!? Anyway, those Parisians (read: people from Paris, France) go hard. Ed Banger Records isn’t messing around. And the animation is bonkers.

This is the greatest video blogger in the history of video blogging. Yeah, it dropped 2 weeks ago, but I just never got around to throwing it up. Maestro is a beast. Watch him infiltrate the athletes version Disney World, also known as the Nike Campus, based in Beaverton, Oregon. It’s incredible. Just watch.

We told you last week that the mini-series chronicling Mike Posner’s senior year and road to fame was coming last week. Here’s the first episode. It’s pretty awesome, I like how they’re making us wait another two weeks before the next one drops. Ha. Enjoy.
