Imagine you have just a few hours to spend at MoMA, you get there and are subjected to this ridiculous bullshit. This is what happens when you surround yourself with people who do nothing but kiss your ass. You end up thinking everything you do is great. It’s the same thing that happened to Eddie Murphy. You start with “Raw” and end up with “Meet Dave,” “Daddy Day Care” and “Norbit.” At least in Eddie’s case you have to make the decision to see those films. Yoko is subjecting innocent art fans to her ridiculous arrogance. This is possibly the most pretentious and narcissistic ‘art piece’ ever performed.

It’s kind of wild to think about how much time goes into making a video like this when it will really only be watched by probably 1,000-5,000 fans. Chalk that up to few media outlets still playing videos and our cultural obsession with the latest (anything 3 days old is actually considered old nowadays). This is a really great track that totally stands up on its own but the video provides even more depth to this balance of dark and light.

Reuse Recycle Remix is a feature where I take remixes that for one reason or another didn’t earn their own post or didn’t make it on LivingEars Radio. It’s been four months since I did this last and this is only a portion of what I had collected for this. I’ll likely do another post in a couple of weeks to cover some of the others worth mentioning.

Someone who deserves an award took a new Justin Beiber song and slowed it down 800% and it actually sounds kind of cool. Soak it in, man.
