N.E.R.D. Get Extra Nerdy With Kanye West

August 7th, 2008 // 4 Comments


Kanye West, whose blog has become my go-to source for new videos over the past few days, posted the above clip for N.E.R.D.’s remix of “Everyone Nose” with the simple declaration “THIS IS WHY I FUCK WITH HYPE!!!” I’m guessing “This” in the previous sentence means “His willingness to blend characters from Space Invaders and Donkey Kong with a dancing bathroom-sign lady, which make for a much better video tableau than American Apparel model rejects. And also, me me me me me in 8-bit mode.” [OnSmash via kanYe West: Blog]

    What’s the clearance cost for Bally-Midway license rights? I sure as hell didn’t see Princess Peach up in that… did I?

    This version is much better than the original single. Too bad it didn’t appear on the physical disc.

    I have to say, you’d find the original video more hilariously entertaining if you’ve almost passed out in the bathroom of [Darkroom? Happy Ending? The Annex? Black & White? Don Hill's? Whichevs.] in a haze of vice whilst outrunning Bronques and his freakin’ camera. Maybe.

    Oh god, I’m old. And tired.

    @the rich girls are weeping:

    Or if while “passing out in the bathroom of [Winston's? Teddy's? Cinespace? Area? LAX? Hyde? Whichevs.]in a haze” whilst others around you ham it up and hope to catch Mark “The Cobrasnake” Hunter’s eye, or any of the other “fifty-eleven” photogs running through the clubs documenting the scene.
