I like The Very Best. I like them because their music is infectiously happy and it helps me through the frigid New York winters (waaaahhh I hate you LA). Here’s Very Best’s frontman Esau Mwamwaya with Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend doing “Warm Heart of Africa” and it looks like the two of them are having a blast poppin and lockin around the streets of NYC (is that canal street?). I smell a buddy-cop comedy in their future.

I love the album, I love the short & sweet track. But Raekwon’s new video for “Pyrex Vision” is literally just shots of a few curvaceous naked chicks whippin up a fresh supply. Dreaming of a WHITE Christmas?
Stumbled across this amazing short film by Tim Burton, narrated by Vincent Price, about a boy who wants to BE Vincent Price. It was created in 1982 (wayyy before CG animation) and here’s some fun trivia, between the 1:17 and 1:25 minute marks you can see an early form of the character Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas…which came out 10 years later.
