Gorillaz “Stylo”

28 03 2010

Note: I can’t find an embeddable video so please just follow the linkĀ  above to the video on YouTube and return here for my saucy commentary. Sorry for the hassle!

Buckle your seat belts, because this video involves cars driving! One of the cars is filled with Gorilla-faced fellows and another has Bruce Willis! What’s happenin’ Bruce?

I am so glad artists still put effort into making music videos. Maybe you don’t like this video, but it seems like there was more thought put into the “Stylo” vid than say, I don’t know, the “Hot Mess” rape van debacle.

I think this is pretty sweet. The Gorilla-faced gentlemen are some bad dudes, but nobody beats Bruce Willis. I mean, just look how long he stares into the camera! That is an offensively long stare!

One potential problem is that I have almost no idea what “Stylo” sounds like, because I was so engrossed in the car chase. Mos Def and Bobby Womack guest star on the track, but I would not have noticed had I not read the video description on YouTube. They’re just the background noise to gun shots and tire screeching.

One thing I don’t get is why the Gorilla-face in the backseat shorts out all of a sudden. Did he have a drug overdose? Why is he a robot? I thought they were Gorilla-faces, not robots. Is Bruce Willis a robot? What’s Happenin’ Bruce? (again)
