Jorma in Kenya - Rap (and Jorma dancing to Lady Gaga)

First, here's Jorma dancing to Lady Gaga:



Next here's Jorma rapping in Kenya...






Rabbit's Sheng Swahili lyrics translated:

Nilikuwa Proud sana singeeza kuomba bop

(I was too proud to borrow a shilling)

sahizo Nursa nimechujwa nimechapa watoi wasoft

(that time I was kicked out of nursery school for bullying soft kids)

shairi za Chesimba zinafanya walami wanitafute

(now white people are looking for me coz the poetry of Mrs. Chesimba taught me)

mi ndio King Simba, inafanya wasanii wasiniguse

(now I'm the king simba, fellow artists cant touch me)

kuna time nilikuwa kwa bench nakatsika vile game inachezwa

(there was a time I was on the bench, disgusted at how the game was being played)

ata coach anaskia wivu anajua tricks naeza leta

(even the coach was jealous he knew the tricks I would bring to the game)

ndio niliamua kuquit game, Haimaanishi mi ni quitter

(and so I quit the game, it doesnt mean I'm a quitter)

sahii ile game nacheza nabonga na Game kwa Twitter

(now the game that I play, I'm chattin with the game on twitter)

Pro Kid South Africa, na Mode 9 ni kwisha

(Pro kid from south africa, & Mode 9 is the s#!t)

wanajua mi ni new kid kwa block, niko na new talk,

(& they all know I'm a new kid i gotta a new talk)

nafanya stuff na Lonely Island kutoka New York

(I'm doing stuff with Lonely Island from New York)

nawashow Mtu Hivi Hivi, wananishw am on the boat

(I'm showing them MTU HIVI HIVI & they show me I'M ON A BOAT)

ile hard living ya mtaa iliniletea mistari

(the hard livin' from the hood brought me these lyrics that i now write)

Majournalist wananisaka Niko kwa gazeti za Kigali

(the journalists are looking for me I'm in the newspaper in Kigali)

niko Burma kiugali, maji kata kiu kali

(I'm in Burma eating Ugali, the water quenches my thirst)

niko busy kiu kazi, nawatongoza kiucouzin

(I'm busy hustlin, and flirtin posin as their cousins)

==================

What do you think of Jorma's vids? Didja like em?

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg and Jack Johnson - "At or With Me" music video

Here's the music video:



And here's a "making of" short and interview:



Thanks to Janey for the scoop!

Wow, they really made Andy look like the alpha male in his group, but I don't think that's the case.

Enjoy!

Will MacGruber make money on DVD?

Who knows? Maybe MacGruber will make some money on DVD. One way to find out...



"MacGruber" can diffuse bombs using his bare hands and everyday objects, but that didn't help it from being the biggest bomb at the box-office this summer. The comedy based on the "SNL"character is getting a second chance on Blu-ray and DVD this September.

"MacGruber" stretches the usually 30-second to 2-minute "SNL" skits to 99 minutes in the comedy which sees the title character, played by Will Forte, being called upon by the government after a decade-long hiatus to find a nuclear warhead stolen by his enemy, the inappropriately named Dieter Von Cunth (Val Kilmer). The film also stars Kristen Wiig and Ryan Phillippe.

The Blu-ray and DVD contains two versions of the movie: the original theatrical version, and an unrated version, which features never-before-seen footage removed to keep the film's R-rating, which it was awarded for strong crude and sexual content, violence, language and some nudity, so imagine.

Along with more "MacGruber" back into the film, it also contains a host of special features, including a commentary with director Jorma Taccone, Will Forte, and co-writer John Solomon, a deleted scene, and a gag reel. The Blu-ray features exclusive additional features like BD-Live internet features, pocketBlu interactivity through iPhone and iTouch accessories, and more.

"MacGruber" hits Blu-ray, DVD, digital download and On-Demand on September 7th.

MacGruber tanked in the Box Office



Domestic Total as of Jun. 9, 2010: $8,511,440

Production Budget: $10 million

Still, this is better than Will Forte's last effort, The Brothers Solomon (9/7/07), which made only $900,926.

But not quite as good as Andy Samberg's Hot Rod...



Which made $14,334,401.

So unfortunately The Lonely Island remains unbankable in movies.

So sad. =^(

TheLonelyIsland's anti-Shrek campaign

(in no way affiliated with #MacGruber which is also out in theaters today) #Shrek Exposed!: http://shrekexposed.com/
- The Lonely Island

===============

Shrek's been doing some terrorist bombing:



So that was the Lonely Island's tweet (and they have a similar blog post). This basically means that Joni or Jorma wanted to comically downplay MacGruber's biggest film competition (sort of how Austin Powers 2 trailer masterfully told you to watch Star Wars), which is Shrek 4.

Kind of amusing...

Andy Samberg at a MacGruber screening



Sunshine Landmark Cinemas. May 19, 2010.



What was the funniest moment on set?

“During the second sex scene, Will, because he’s having sex with a ghost, is humping air pushed up against a gravestone, banging his knees on the gravestone, and Lorne Michaels runs up and takes a picture of him from behind, giggling hysterically.” — Jorma Taccone
