Hip-Hop, Negroclash!

Fonzworth Bentley, Andre 3000 and Kanye West - Everybody

Yesterday I was noticing a lot of search engine traffic was coming to this site from looking for Fonzworth Bentley. I was scratching my head…Fonzworth? That’s a blast from the past!

“Everybody” was a song that we posted about in 2006 and two years later they finally drop a video for this track. It’s all good though, because the Cool Outrageous Lovers of Uniquely Raw Style (yeah really) bring it. The track itself might rank as my favorite of the year, and again, Andre 3000 kills it. The straight goofiness of the video is refreshing–I thought I would never see Kanye get relegated to the position of backup dancer. Sa-Ra, who produced the track, are in the background and don’t get top billing. Sad.

I was initially blah about Fonzworth and his music career, but I’m the dude won me over after I listened to Kreg and Dez’s interview with him a few years ago where he proved that he’s more than a character. C.O.L.O.U.R.S. is still listed as having no release date, but now that the video has dropped, it should see the light of day
