Adam and Jeremy Say: Kanye West, Will Oldham, Fiona Apple and Zach Galifianakis... Now thats a Party; just add Blood Diamonds

So I was sipping on a cold glass of filtered city water whilst perusing the Popcandy blog when I saw a link to this great little video for Kanye West latest track "Can't Tell Me Nothing." Produced and staring comedian Zach Galifianakis...


You may be wondering how a goofball like Galifianakis could get mixed up with someone like Kanye, and if so check out this link to Fader magazine that gives you insight to the whole story....Fader Magazine Story.... Galifianakis shtick may seem familiar because he did a similar comic video using the song "You Bring Me Joy" by Anita Baker...

He also did a similar video with pal Fiona Apple on her song "Not About Love"...


And this is important because Fiona Apple will be joining Nickel Creek next Friday August 3rd at Innsbrook, right here in Richmond Virginia! Which just so happens to be the city I live in and the city in which I saw Blood Diamond last night (great movie by the way,) and as many of you know Kanye West has also tackled the emotionally charged topic of conflict diamonds in his hit song "Diamonds from Sierra Leone"...


And in case you are wondering... the bald white guy in the first video is Will Oldham who is the folk singer responsible for this song...


I do love ping pong.
