the technologist

So I’m walking home last night and I check the Crackberry and see an email from Tricia with the subject line “the plot thickens.” Thinking it had everything to do with her waterpark drama this weekend (don’t ask), I open it to actually find the below rumination on the previous post. She should probably just sign her name on both because it’s all hers.

Regardless…vewy intewesting…

Maybe you already know about this… but did you put the connection together that when Kanye West had that fit at the European MTV Music awards, it was because he lost to Ed Banger’s So-Me (the director), who directed the winning video for a track a by Justice vs. Simian. We all know that Justice is managed by Ed Banger Records, which Daft Punk owns… soo…

Maybe there is hidden meaning behind this collaboration???

Maybe Kanye, who insulted So-Me’s video and acted like his million dollar video with Pam Anderson had more credibility then a dance video by artists he didn’t even know… is trying to connect with electronic music before everyone turns on him. Just MAYBE he realized he can’t be a prick and insult underground electronic music because there is a huge cross-over with the fans to hip hop as well.

MAYBE… Kanye West’s Daft Punk collab is a big “sorry” for his
behavior and insults?

who knows.

just some further speculation.

I like it. This is worth investigating. If anyone knows anything about this, PLEASE comment.

In the meantime, because I am seeing them this weekend in LA, I’ll stick with the Daft Punk (and ripping off my friends’ ideas) theme by throwing up this crazy little video my buddy Chas turned me on to. Whoever did this spent an ABSURD amount of time practicing…

Stumble it!
