Hell's 542nd Annual Sadie Hawkin's Dance

Video time in class! Links will be provided.

Looks like some English gangsta rap, taped entirely in black and white in what appears to be house under renovations or a factory.

TOO MANY FLASHING LIGHTS. I'm about to seize.

The two worst gangs in London get in a fight. I still haven't understood a single word the rapper has said. He does have a pretty sweet beard though so I can forgive that.

2nd worst gang in London goes on a walk though the woods, find a cemetery and people mourning. Fist bumps are exchanged.

Worst gang in London + new recruits beat up a fire. Man litters signs with controversial statements. Video ends.

Thus concludes, Fun-da-mental - Dog Tribe.

OOOH another one. This ones in Hell! And now its crappy metal.

I really wouldn't expect any other type of music in Hell but bad metal.

Honestly I can't understand a single word of any of this. It looks like one sweet Hell party though. Do you suppose they have theme dances and parties in hell? This is just the most recent Hell Metal show, but I'd personally be looking forward to the Sadie Hawkins dance.

And another video! Zephania. Heres a black man in dreads beating up a punching bag for way too long then reciting poetry. Lots about white stuff.

He's actually pretty good so I won't make fun of it.

Not entirely sure what we're watching this for. OOH Zephaniah accepting an honorary degree. Old man in the background is asleep in his chair.

And if there was one thing we were missing it was some crappy reggae. Thank god the prof has that covered.

Not only that, but crappy reggae set to a guy walking around, looking at things, and riding elevators.

White text set on a stairway is here to save the day! And wtf reggae over. Now lets send it back to hip-ho--NOPE reggae ag--NOPE for real its hip-hop and now its over.

General reactions, class? I have one. I don't know what in the flip-flopping fuck they said in those Fun-da-mental videos and that really affected my viewing.

Class is talking about our final video and analyzing it in a way that I want to call bullshit on. Girl's been talking for 5 minutes and hasn't said anything more than "You can interpret this in any way you want." Thanks.
