Amoeblogger Brad Sheldon was absolutely right Memorial Day when he predicted that R. Kelly's new album would likely be a hot seller at Amoeba Music upon its release the following day. Go back and check it if you missed this informative AMOEBLOG which gave a real good history of the ever-popular & controversial R&B star plus a link to his video "Careful" with Sparkle. Equally, if not much more to some, entertaining is the Dave Chappelle video "R.Kelly: I'm Gonna P*** On You" included on the about to be released DVD "The Best of Chappelle's Show (Uncensored): Top 25 Sketches" (Comedy Central/Paramount). Available instore on Tuesday, June 5th the other 24 sketches include (among others) the sidesplittingly funny 'A Night With Wayne Brady' and 'The Ni**ar Family' sketches plus the played-to-death so that its well-past-expiration-date funny 'Charlie Murphy's True Hollywood Stories: Rick James." While I want to own this new DVD, truth is that I have already seen all of these skits a zillion times so right now I prefer to go back and re-watch that surprsingly engaging, ever-revealing James Lipton interview with Chappelle on Bravo's 'Inside the Actor's Studio'
One of the best videos to surface in the past week or so online is the fun, fast-paced video mashup "Shatner Woo Remix" - posted by YouTube user "smudgeorama" who took a recent Conan O'Brian interview segment with William Shatner and chopped up and mixed interview portions with clips from a video of renaissance man Shatner driving a car at 160 MPH and remixing it with a cool electronic track into a mind-dazzling 2 and quarter minute video.
And finally the video of a live Amoeba instore that leaves you fiending for more...way more...is the teasingly all-too-short ten second funky-funky clip of WARP disco-punkers !!! (often pronounced as chk chk chk) from a free instore performance they did at Amoeba Hollywood about a month ago (4/26/07).





Was it Chappelle who did that skit on howcome white people don't use a washcloth, they just put the soap everywhere needs to be clean? Ooooh, that one got me.
