Busta Rhymes’ New Song: “Arab Money”
2 Comments
I was driving from San Diego to Orange County the other night on the first leg of a late-night return to Fresno, bumping XM Channel 65, the Rhyme, when Busta Bus’ new song came on. The title of the song is “Arab Money”, and the content is just more of the standard bragging about how much money the artist has. The uniqueness here is not only do the lyrics compare Busta’s wealth to that of an Arab oil tycoon, but the hook, which I thought was by T.Pain (pretty much anybody on a voice-synthesizer machine sounds like T-Pain), is a guy singing in “Arabic” (I dont think he’s actually saying anything) and that is just freakin absolutely brilliant. I don’t think I’ve laughed at a song this much since…probably since Mac Dre died. It’s got a really catchy beat, and Busta Bus has even introduced a dance to go along with the song, with elements borrowed from traditional Middle Eastern dancing. Check it:
I can’t WAIT for that song to come on the next time I’m in the club! I’m bustin it out!!!
Seriously, this song won’t save hip-hop, but I’d like to thank Busta Rhymes for making something I can just sit back and smile about, a song that will make me want to get out and dance and act like an idiot. I love it. I’m gonna have to figure out a way to incorporate some Hyphyness into the Arab Money dance…YADIDIMEAN!!!
Also, this was filmed with the crew from Big Boy’s Neighborhood on Power 106 in LA. That really really beautiful Latina is Luscious Liz, the big brotha is Big Boy (the smaller version) and that fat dude with his shirt off is Tattoo. I miss that show, it’s one of the main things I miss about living in LA.

Another funny political video
Leave a Comment
I got this one from a myspace bulletin. Absolutely irrelevant, but hilarious. I have decided to call it “Breakin 3: Election Boogaloo”
The original link to the video is from break.com, but I embedded it from youtube…hilarious!
The funniest bit of political material I’ve ever seen…

Okay so a couple months back I registered on MoveOn.org in order to receive free Obama buttons (which I never received) and also because I was interested in becoming involved somehow with the Obama campaign and I know that MoveOn.org is deeply involved. I get occasional emails from them, usually similar to the emails I receive directly from the Obama campaign, and eventually I got to the point where I hardly ever read them. This one caught my eye, however, and I opened it and read the following:
Dear Matthew,Oversleeping. Getting the car fixed. Having to pick up the second-cousin’s stepkids on the other side of town. These are just a few of the reasons millions of Americans won’t vote on November 4th.
It’s not like they hate voting. They want to do it. They know they should. And mostly, they intend to. But some of your friends won’t get around to actually voting because they haven’t been reminded vividly enough.
That’s why we developed this funny, scary video. It shows people what it might look like if we lose the election by a single vote: theirs.
Here’s a version we prepared for you. You’re in it—seriously, you, Matthew. Check it out—and if you like it, send it to your friends:
UPDATE: I know that link above doesn’t take you to the video directly, but you can use that form to send the email to yourself, if you want. I’ve been trying to figure out how to post the video on here, to no avail.
I began laughing uncontrollably. It may be the highlight of this entire campaign for me. I posted the video on my Myspace. If any of you have an idea how I can put this video on here without linking the entire page, please let me know so I can do it and you all can see the video. Oh my goodness, classic stuff. Elections kick ass!!!
