You remember when NBC Nightly News Anchor Brian Williams did Snoop Dogg’s Gin and Juice, courtesy of The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. Well, he’s back and this time he’s doing Sir Mix-A-Lot’s Baby Got Back. He brought some friends to give him a helping hand, as well. The greatest part of these has to be… Continue reading Brian Williams Does Baby Got Back

Sir Mix-A-Lot Did Baby Got Back with the Seattle Symphony
This is totally the perfect pairing, isn’t it? Rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot and the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. Of course they got together and did a symphonic version of Baby Got Back. Like, why wouldn’t they? Seriously, the Seattle Symphony had this series where they perform with popular musicians who happen to be from Seattle. It’s called… Continue reading Sir Mix-A-Lot Did Baby Got Back with the Seattle Symphony
Will Ferrell and Chad Smith Drum-Off
Chad Smith is the drummer for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Will Ferrell is, well… Will Ferrell. However, these dudes look pretty much exactly alike. So of course they appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s show together, dressed exactly alike and had a drum-off. You can probably guess who the better drummer is, but it was pretty… Continue reading Will Ferrell and Chad Smith Drum-Off
Talk Dirty in 20 Different Styles (In One Song)
I don’t really know what this whole big deal about Jason Derulo’s Talk Dirty is. A band called Poison made that song 30 years ago, called it Talk Dirty to Me and it was (and still is) awesome. Anyway, as you can probably imagine, I could give two shits about Jason Derulo. That being said,… Continue reading Talk Dirty in 20 Different Styles (In One Song)
DuckTales Theme as an R&B Slow Jam
All I remember from the DuckTales theme song is, “DuckTales, woo ooh!” even though I watched it every day after school when I was a kid. That’s not at all what’s important here though. What’s important is that someone did that theme song as a slow R&B jam. And it is tremendous. It’s part of… Continue reading DuckTales Theme as an R&B Slow Jam
It’s My Belly Button is a Song About Belly Buttons
You didn’t even know you wanted this, but here it is anyway. The song is called It’s My Belly Button and it is just as absurd as it sounds. It’s by Rhett & Link, who, best we can tell are some sort of comic duo. Practitioners of the absurd. And so forth. The premise here… Continue reading It’s My Belly Button is a Song About Belly Buttons
Tata&Friends’ Rock Band Icons
They’re literal interpretations of rock band names in icon form and they’re done by design studio Tata&Friends. That’s a pretty dumb name for a design studio, but these icon sets are pretty cool nonetheless. Although they suck as a band, The Sex Pistols have the funniest icon. Yeah, I said it. The Sex Pistols suck.… Continue reading Tata&Friends’ Rock Band Icons
Lionel Richie’s Chocolate Head Should Effectively Frighten You
Yup. That’s Lionel Richie’s head in chocolate form. Are you frightened? I sure as hell am. Even better, you can buy this thing. It costs $839.89 in whatever sort of money they use in the UK. I love the bullet-pointed description of this concoction. Check it out. Feast upon the gorgeous moustached face of a soul… Continue reading Lionel Richie’s Chocolate Head Should Effectively Frighten You
LEGO Versions of Your Favorite Bands
I always knew LEGOs were cool, but I never really realized how popular they were until lately. Like, people really flip their shit when new sets are released, especially if they’re at all associated with something pop culture-y. I tend to remain indifferent. That’s because I’m a grown-ass man who doesn’t play with toys anymore.… Continue reading LEGO Versions of Your Favorite Bands
Bruce Springsteen Covered Lorde’s Royals
Bruce Springsteen is on some sort of world tour and he was in New Zealand last week. During a stop at Auckland’s Mt. Smart Stadium The Boss did a cover of a local favorite — Lorde’s Royals. It was acoustic and bluesy. It was also awesome. The crowd seemed to appreciate it, at least the… Continue reading Bruce Springsteen Covered Lorde’s Royals
