Another Harry Mosco video

Still mega-busy, fam... Transmission will re-commence soon.

In the meantime, check out this vid and enjoy the light-skinned gal's consistent overacting/dancing.

K'Naan - "T.I.A."

Nabil does it again. Dude is very quickly becoming one of my favorite video directors.

Ha... Look at that Elephant Blue Detergent commercial at the beginning: You can still see the little scroll at the bottom that shows it was ripped from this YouTube video:



I ain't mad at him, though. I actually did the same thing (in a clip you might be seeing soon).

Erykah Badu stays being the shit

Apart from Cody ChesnuTT, she remains my favorite contemporary artist working in the R&B/soul idiom, or whatever you want to call it. Sure, in recent years she has pulled a couple of stunts that have made me slightly question my devotion for her, but in the end, her wit, her creativity, her fearlessness, her goddamn flyness have always won me over.

One thing I've always loved from her right from the beginning is that she's a much underrated conceptualist and director of music videos, and I'm feeling her new one, "Honey":



The compositing seems just a teensy bit dodgy, but man, she is so fly.

And maybe I'm too much of a record store nerd, but I'm tickled pink (not literally, obviously) by all the cratedigger culture inside jokes and shout outs in there.

I wonder if MTV and BET will even bother to play this.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to her upcoming album, New Amerykah.
