Well, it just keeps getting weirder and weirder…in a good way.
Huzzah!

If you don’t know by now, you better ask somebody. Sir Jarlsberg has been a staple of this blog forever and it’s all come to fruition with the release of his full length album “Hark Thou”.
If you don’t what this is all about, get your learn on…Go to his new website:
http://sirjarlsberg.com/
The website includes music, videos, pictures and the story behind the man himself.
Here’s a weird new video he made recently
anyway, here’s a link to the the album on I-tunes:

If you like strange, wildly creative stuff, this will be your right up your alley. Cop dat shit!
Instead of making 5 little posts, I’ll just save us all some time and condense all these goodies into one entry. I know how busy you are. You’re welcome.
To start things off…The new Sir Jarlsberg video. This time, our hero goes to see “Wizards” play basketball. He’s pretty bummed out when he learns that these Wizards are actually just really tall, normal men…but it all works out in the end.

Secondly, here’s a link to a new song I did with my boy Selfsays. I like it. It’s fun. Perfect for the upcoming summer. Peep it:

Next, My homeboy Dj Pawl of Hangar 18 has been working on a documentary (that I actually took part in and gave music too) about what happens to rappers when they grow up. The problem is, he needs a little money to finish it. So, here’s a preview of what you might be seeing with a touch of Kickstarter thrown in.
Also,
Here’s an interview I did for the “Shape of things” podcast. It’s long and thorough. Just like you like it. Also, admire how fucking fast I talk. Micro machine status.

Lastly, this is not a common thing for this blog but I figured I’d throw it out there…
I recently heard this rock group called The Skins. It’s basically a band of high school students from NYC. Most of them are actually related. Anyway, it’s some straight up rock shit but I have a feeling, in the next few years, these people are going to be extremely famous. So, if for no other reason, check it out so you can say “Oh shit, I remember when blockhead posted about them 3 years ago! He’s must be a magical truth teller from the future!!”…also, this lead singer can sing her ass off.
Here’s another song for download:

Here’s a new Sir Jarlsberg video. This was done for WreckRoom records. The same people who did this with my group The Mighty Jones a few weeks back.
This video is a performance video of one of my favorite Sir Jarlsberg songs and it’s also , very subtly, one of the creepier things I’ve ever seen. Sir Jarlsberg + A bathtub = some ill shit.
If you’ve been into all this Sir Jarlsberg stuff I’ve been posting (AS YOU SHOULD!), he’s playing his first show this thursday (4/5/12) at Piano’s in NYC. I think he goes on at 11. Come through. There will be props, puppets and maidens.

As you know, I’ve been big upping my man Sir Jarlsberg pretty hard around these parts. This newest video has him in a rap battle. This actually happened. He really did this. It’s so fucking good. Being there live was extra amazing cause most of the crowd had no idea what the fuck was going on. I almost feel bad for the other dude in the battle cause what can you really say to a guy dressed up like that who’s rapping about you being “an ogre’s chauffeur”?
If you’re clueless to who the man is, do a search on this blog and you will be greatly rewarded with all sorts of videos, free music downloads and a deeper explanation of what’s going on.
While I got you here, might as well spread some more video love…
Here’s my boy Fat Jew and his partner Johnny Sollis in the new pilot for their show “Bottle PoppAZ” , which is about two club promoters in Scottsdale, Arizona
Also, in case you missed this one from a while back, here was another one he (and Johnny Sollis) did that was a hilarious take off on the “Laguna beach”/”The city” type shows
And, finally, I still love Tenacious D. I know people out there feel like Jack Black is the least funny person alive but fuck those people. When in his pocket, he’s still got it…and never is he more in his pocket than with Tenacious D. I dunno if there’s a new movie coming with this new album but I hope so.
Sir Jarlsberg is back once again with a look into his trip to atlantic city…in search for jewels and gems!
and, of course, if you somehow missed it, never sleep on this:
Before you do anything, if you’re not familiar with Sir Jerlsberg, read this and download the music:

It’s a description of Sir Jarlsberg as well as folder of the songs he had done up to that point. Granted, this isn’t for everyone but I think it’s the fucking best.
But, that’s not why I wrote this post…it’s cause yesterday, Sir Jarlsberg finally dropped his long awaited first video “Teach thee how to curtsy” (feat. Lord Richard and Kelly Waters). I’m sad to say I don’t have the MP3 of this song but that just means you’ll have to watch this video over and over again…
