Beastie Boys?

haha

coop has a point here j0n A; i mean the ‘lol rap’ cover version thing does exist and there is an unsavory racist subtext within it bcz the lols are at the expense of certain cultural signifiers

yeah I guess I can see why some people here would get hung up on that but it’s not as though “Get Low” or “Gin and Juice” aren’t ridiculous anyway, I mean they’re clearly meant to be funny in some way and therefore are overripe for parody, meaning that yes people are going to make fun of this and no they are almost never funnier than the original. I suppose I can see how you can call that racism but it’s like three levels removed from anything meaningful whatsoever

nice catch whiney

yeah but check out the comments from the Get Low video that amon is posting

(xp)

I remember that SITTIN ON THE TOILET youtube i used to tease forks with because it was invented for his pazz and jop ballot?

I remember once I was looking for it, and I stumbled across a now-deleted video called “Sittin On Tha Toilet (White Version)” and it was like a twenty something librarian looking white girl doing it in dainty, stilted english, providing extra enunciation—sitting on the toilet. And in her upload info section said THIS IS NOT RACIST and someone obviously clued her in that it was because now it’s gone. And whenever I hear twee indie rock version of a rap song, I think of this misguided white girl on the toilet.

sittin on tha

underrated toilets I have called racist

flush this thread

dying @ “misguided white girl on the toilet”

David Wittman is an award winning film and commercial composer from Berkeley, California. He grew up playing drums and DJing at a young age, and moved to Los Angeles in 1992 to attend UCLA where he received a degree in Economics and Musicology.

In 1999 he began working for renowned commercial music house “Elias Arts” in Santa Monica where his scores have earned top honors in advertising including a Cannes Lion, Clio, AICP, and First Boards award for excellence in original music. He has been featured in SHOOT, Creativity, Boards, and Entertainment Weekly magazines, as well as The Wall Street Journal, Hollywood Reporter, and Huffington Post.

In 2006 he contributed to the score for director Dito Montiel’s debut “A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints” (Robert Downey Jr., Shia LaBoeuf) working alongside mentor Jonathan Elias. After the success of the film followed the scores for “Fighting” (Channing Tatum, Terrence Howard, 2009) and “The Son of No One” (Al Pacino, Ray Liotta, 2011.) In 2010 he worked with up-and-coming independent filmmaker Victoria Mahoney on her gritty debut “Yelling to the Sky” (Zoe Kravitz, Gabourey Sibide) premiering in Berlin and SXSW. He and Jimmy Haun co-wrote the score for David Arquette’s directorial debut thriller “The Tripper” back in 2006, and Wittman most recently completed the original music for Sony Pictures “Never Back Down II” directed by Michael Jai White.

In 2011 his music video “Whole Foods Parking Lot” received over 3 million hits on YouTube, and earned him appearances on the Today Show, ABC and NBC News, NPR Radio, and Bloomberg TV. His creative collective “Fog and Smog” comprised of friends and creative associates from the SF Bay Area and LA continues to release videos and work on projects together.
