Has Everyone Seen This?


THE BPA - THE BPA 'TOE JAM' FEAT. DAVID BYRNE & DIZZEE RASCAL from Fabio Resende on Vimeo.
Ska is coming back big right now in Britain, well I guess anything British Mod is. Not the punk version of ska like Operation Ivy, but more the beginning stages in the 50's and 60's (Which in itself is big, along with all the singer songwriters like Duffy, Whinehouse, and Adele looking to anything pre 1965 for inspiration). So when I  heard this BPA track I thought it exemplified exactly what I am talking about, and I wanted to share it with all of you!!! I know I 'm awesome.  So when you hear this song you can say I heard that a long time ago thanks to Seceret Art of Snark. Yeah right, I bet everyone reading this is like that song is so last year... This dude is nuts. Well WHATEVER, It features David Byrne and Dizzie Rascal, and it is some hot shit!! The video is pretty unique and forward thinking as well. Hell even Kayne West put this on his blog. So I must be cool if Gods gift to art Kanye West posted it!!! Maybe I should call this site the secret art of sarcasm. 

If video above doesn't work click here for You Tube. I have never used Vimeo before.
