Coloured is better

Good morning,

Watch this.  It’s hilarious. Don’t think about it too much about it though. Just laugh, and continue with your day.

White people dance like this, black people dance like that

Yes, I shamelessly and unapologetically jacked the idea for this post from that TAN dude, but it’s a fuggin brilliant idea, so there. Imitation=flattery and all that…

So dig it: this little slice of minimal excellence is straight  from the Berlin based mind of  electro producer Squarespace. A little B-boy, a little modern, a little Fosse, a couple pencil skirts and some skinny ties.   So clean and sharp, with a controlled boogie and bubbly aftertaste.

Then we have this.

Video for the Strange: Buju, Parliament, Miles and the gang…

Buju Banton, Wanna Be Loved

Props to the wonderfully cute and big brained Etta Strange for the inspiration. We were talking the other day and she surprised me by playing this Buju vid, hands down one of my favorite songs of all time. So in her honor, here are a few vids that I love, that she loves and that you’ll love after viewing. Enjoy.

New Sharon Jones vid & old Betty, Fontella and Dinah

 

 

This is the new video from Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings song “100 Days, 100 Nights”. I’ve always been a fan and the way they shot this works perfectly with the song.

The video brings to mind a lot of old soul-that funky, moanin’,  good lovin’ that hurt so bad kinda soul, so I threw in a few Jones predecessors doing doing there thing.  A little Betty Davis, Fontella Bass and Dinah Washington.  Enjoy…

Sage Francis will b-boy all over your ass.

In keeping with the dance theme, I offer this gem. Apparently Sage was at the Epitath Records HQ, probably drinking bub and smackin bitches-like any proper hip hop star-when somebody challenged somebody else to a dance battle.

 

This hilarious mess is the result.

 

I dug Sage Francis a lot during the spoken word years when he running around as part of the Non Prophets. He dropped an album earlier this year and this vid makes me want to see what he’s been up to. Looks like he’s still being…creative.

Do your dance dude.  Do your muthafuckin’ dance:
