Following up on their personalized publicity campaign, the strangely-named MTV Iggy interviews Das Racist on all Wesleyan topics. But I can’t introduce this clip better than they did:
“Westco. Butt B. Anthony Braxton. The Argus. The Ampersand. If these words mean anything at all to you, you probably attended Wesleyan University in grim, grim Middeltown, Connecticut. You know who else did? The “weed-edge/hare krishna hard-core/art-rap/freak folk” duo Das Racist. We sat the MCs of our favorite hip hop group down and asked them the tough, tough questions about their alma mater. We ran out of time before they could sing the school fight song, but if you’re even watching that far into the video, you already know the song by heart. 06459 in the house!”
Thanks shoutbox commenter for the tip!
What! Why!
Also @ #6 – if Stuy kids were aware of these guys, they clearly would be.
“I think chalking is, like, the ultimate form of expression”
“It’s definitely, like, the new rap”

Yeah, what the fuck was up with that interview–the repeating of the questions, the questions themselves?
Also, one of them went to Stuyvesant (lol). Yet, somehow, I don’t hear Stuy talking about them every five minutes.

Okay, having actually listened to the interview… wow, probably not.
they should just superimpose the awkward turtle over half that interview.

One has to wonder about an interview with such limited audience appeal. Guess they are trying to cultivate Wesleyan readers in the belief that a disproportionate number of tastemakers attend the school?
