"Bi-racial" by Sean Fury

I can’t decide what the worst thing about Sean Fury’s “Bi-Racial” music video is. The lyrics (She’s a biracial girl … she’s thinks the world’s gone mad, that she has to choose one side…), Sean’s bad breakdancing moves, his sweater, his earnestness or the acting. I think the acting wins! Presumably that “tug of war” scene (at 1:50)  is meant to represent the biracial girl feeling pulled between the two parts of herself. I don’t know, I’m just riffing here. I believe that Sean Fury had nothing but the best intentions with this song, but I don’t think he realizes that issues of identity can’t be remedied with a hug. I think we could all use a hug after watching this. [YouTube]

For her new music video for the song “Stay,” Rihanna decided to get naked and film in my favorite place on early — the bathtub. These stills suggest to me that RiRi could use some advice on how to bathe like a rockstar. Where are the bubbles? The candles? The laptop sitting on the toilet airing the latest episode of “Downton Abbey”? The glass of wine? Anyway, click through to see more shots from Rihanna’s boring bathtub adventure.

We have substantial reason to believe that Hedi Slimane, designer, photographer, and newly minted creative director at Yves Saint Laurent, lives by the mantra “go big or go home.” There was no question that the former Dior Homme boss would give the historic French house a firm shake-up once he landed the coveted position early last year, but he’s made some unprecedented changes to the très classic company. Like fucking with the name, for starters — just a few short months after his promotion, Slimane announced that he would be changing the universally recognized YSL brand to Saint Laurent Paris. The industry collectively gasped, and maybe dry-heaved a little. Now it seems that the new Saint Laurent under Slimane’s jurisdiction is packaged to appeal not to the elegant, uber-chic likes of its past demographic, but a hipper, more modern audience with retro sensibilities. Read: younger. Keep reading »

"Come on ladies!"

In 2005, I went to grad school in England, and around then, the biggest song on the UK charts was the Crazy Frog ringtone. Not even kidding — a fucking terrible ringtone was the number one track in the country. So it’s no surprise that a song by a British man who refers to himself as £1 Fish Man released a highly successful track called (drumroll) “One Pound Fish.” It is, as you might imagine, rather terrible. But the video does offer a vast array of trouts and salmons for ogling. It has more than eight million views on it so far. And in case the music industry was wondering why it’s been in a horrible death spiral for the last few years — this guy is signed to Warner Music Group. [YouTube]

Okay, What Is This Yasha Swag “Pickles” Video All About?

I don’t know if any of you guys have ever seen “Halloween: III,” but it’s not like the other “Halloween” movies because it doesn’t involve Michael Myers. Instead, it’s about a sinister Halloween mask company, with a horrible jingle that triggers disaster. When the commercial jingle plays, the children’s masks turn killer. I’m wondering if this Yasha Swag song “Pickles” has a similar trigger. Like, hidden in the awful rapping, atonal singing and piss poor graphics is a secret subliminal message to go out and “kill, kill, kill.” That’s the only logical explanation for why this video has more than eight million hits, really.

Will.i.am And Britney, Bitch!

I am an unapologetic Britney Spears superfan, so I welcome every musical endeavor of hers with open arms, even if they include collaborations with lame dorks like Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas. Brit and Will.i.am debuted the video for their single “Scream & Shout” last night, and I have so many feelings about it. First of all, it’s a great, fun, if completely soulless club song. Second, Britney Spears sing-talks with a posh British accent, why? Third, she looks amaaaaazing. Fourth, less Will.i.am, more Britney please. It’s no “Toxic,” but I’m happy to have Britney flexing her pop muscle again.

If you’re not on the Spank Rock short bus yet, you probably should be: Rapper/singer Naeem Juwan makes sexy, catchy-as-hell tracks. For his latest video, “Baby,” Spank enlists a crew of adorable kiddies as his backup clappers/cheer squad. Too cute.

I Wanna Eat The Whole Cake

Hannah Montana is deader than dead: Miley Cyrus’s newest musical offerings include “Bitches Love Cake,” this totally weird (on purpose) dubstep song with Borgore. It’s got a baby goat, panda and unicorn costumes, and a big ol’ cake . Oh, and Miley Cyrus’s freakishly long tongue. As commenter LR52185 told me when he sent this in, “Miley must have some Gene Simmons in her … her tongue is huuuuuuuuuuge.” All the better to lick Liam Hemsworth with, I suppose.

We just found out about Awkwafina and now we’re kind of in love. The tiny rapper created the track “My V@g,” in which she compares her vagina to a “chrome Range Rover / your vag / hatchback ’81 Toyota.” Yeah, it’s that good. [The Hairpin]
