Video: R&B for beta males

posted at 10:20 pm on March 20, 2008 by Allahpundit

Via Ace, someone sent me this the other day but I decided it was too hot for Tuesday night. For Thursday night, though? Golden.

Not sure if this warrants a content warning or not. Ah, what the hell. Content warning.

Update: Same guy as the “One Semester of Spanish” guy? I’m thinking no.

Update: Commenters are telling me it’s the same guy. Is he the King Beta Male?

The background vocals (“chafing”) are a nice touch.

mikeyboss on March 20, 2008 at 10:26 PM

White men really can’t dance… but they can do a mean robot.

Hog Wild on March 20, 2008 at 10:30 PM

The subject matter hardly justifies the production of a music video.

My collie says:

Beyond that simple observation, I’d also have to rank it as truly Pathetic (with a capital P).

Maybe it was supposed to be funny.

CyberCipher on March 20, 2008 at 10:34 PM

Maybe it was supposed to be funny.

Dude, it rocked. IT ROCKED.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:36 PM

Wasn’t this on an episode of scrubs?

opusrex on March 20, 2008 at 10:37 PM

Is this the Spanish Love Song Guy?

EJDolbow on March 20, 2008 at 10:37 PM

Is this the Spanish Love Song Guy?

Good question. Lemme check.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:38 PM

LOL.

Spirit of 1776 on March 20, 2008 at 10:39 PM

Youtube has made somebodies out of nobodies…like this one.

leftnomore on March 20, 2008 at 10:39 PM

I think the Black guy in the backround and the woman are once again showing the Africans as second string. The White guy is the focal point.
It’s just another racist video.
Obama Obama Obama Obama.
Heh! That will get ya, you racist!

thatcher on March 20, 2008 at 10:40 PM

Is it cool if I leave my shirt on girl!?

Cause I just had a big Dinner…(Boston Market)
and I’m struggling with some negative body issues…
LMAO!!!!!!

Chakra Hammer on March 20, 2008 at 10:40 PM

Hah, just finished it (had to pause it.) Love the Boston Market line…and I just finished one of their meat loaf meals. I think I’ll keep my shirt on for the night, even if it’s just me here.

Hannibal Smith on March 20, 2008 at 10:40 PM

Allah, I am pretty sure it is the same guy.

EJDolbow on March 20, 2008 at 10:43 PM

It’s funny because it’s true!

frankj on March 20, 2008 at 10:44 PM

It is the same guy – Runaway Box.

Here is his (their?) website.

EJDolbow on March 20, 2008 at 10:45 PM

That was good.

Reminded me of the SNL skit with Justin Timberlake singing the Christmas song. Probably not appropriate to post here, so I won’t.

Vigilante on March 20, 2008 at 10:46 PM

Update: Same guy as the “One Semester of Spanish” guy? I’m thinking no.

I think it’s the same guy and girl.

Boston Market

loganthompson on March 20, 2008 at 10:48 PM

Is he the King Beta Male? I thought I was the king.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:48 PM

Is he the King Beta Male? I thought I was the king.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:48 PM

Everybody needs a role model.

EJDolbow on March 20, 2008 at 10:50 PM

Dude, I’m totally the king.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:51 PM

“…seven minutes, if you don’t move around to much…”

Best line of the song. Come on, everyone sing!

Vigilante on March 20, 2008 at 10:52 PM

Dude, I’m totally the king.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:51 PM

Hail to the king.

Boston Market

loganthompson on March 20, 2008 at 10:48 PM

The big guy with the background vocals made this vid. “I had a big dinner (Boston Market)”. Classic.

malan89 on March 20, 2008 at 10:53 PM

Is he the King Beta Male?

I didn’t even know betas did ‘kings’. I thought they all just hung around the water cooler and one-uped each other with stories of inferiority. Kind of like liberals until they learn self-reliance.

Spirit of 1776 on March 20, 2008 at 11:00 PM

Dude, I think you just found the winning Democratic Ticket!

Seven Percent Solution on March 20, 2008 at 11:01 PM

Dude, it rocked. IT ROCKED.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:36 PM

Yes, but only for seven minutes.

On a good day.

sulla on March 20, 2008 at 11:02 PM

Make love all night long,thats imposssible.

Tru Dat!Yup truth hurts,Ha ha!

canopfor on March 20, 2008 at 11:05 PM

Flight of the Conchords: Business Time. (Similar theme, but even funnier I think). These guys are hilarious.

Spirit of 1776 on March 20, 2008 at 11:08 PM

I’m perplexed as usual,however,is it 7 minutes straight.
Or 3minutes,pause one minute and another 3minutes.
And this might be critical but is she the one keeping
time!

Oh ya,and if your in a mile high club,and lose track of
where you are and say cross the international date line,
then in essence you might be 24 hrs ahead and 7 Minutes!
Just sayin!

I think they are all funny to various degrees. Jenny is pretty awesome too.

Spirit of 1776 on March 20, 2008 at 11:42 PM

It’s all about the Adidas track jacket. And the background vocals guy.

Chaos male = Rush

What exactly is a chaos male? Some sort of uber-alpha male?

The_Freeze on March 21, 2008 at 12:14 AM

That was funny in a painfully stupid way. Seven minutes…if you don’t move around a lot.

Jaibones on March 21, 2008 at 12:29 AM

Can’t compete with this, AP.

heh…

Connie on March 21, 2008 at 12:37 AM

Awesome

I shouldn’t have been cracking up at that, but I did. Thanks for the laugh.

ScoopPC11 on March 21, 2008 at 7:03 AM

Dude, it rocked. IT ROCKED.

Allahpundit on March 20, 2008 at 10:36 PM

Sorry. I guess you’ll just have to cut this alpha some slack. Furthermore, there may be others around here that will have some difficulty relating to this one.

CyberCipher on March 21, 2008 at 8:09 AM

Just a small prick and it’ll be over before you know it.

Geronimo on March 21, 2008 at 9:43 AM

my wife liked it..

I thought it was funny.. an honest love ballad..

DaveC on March 21, 2008 at 9:52 AM

Superb – “I can probably give you seven minutes if you don’t move around too much. “

I always thought of myself as a Pi man..

DaveC on March 21, 2008 at 10:18 AM

I suppose the “Omega male” would be the ‘last word’ in masculinity?

This vid just doesn’t connect with me at all. Is it some kind of joke?

LimeyGeek on March 21, 2008 at 10:46 AM

Reminded me of the SNL skit with Justin Timberlake singing the Christmas song. Probably not appropriate to post here, so I won’t.

Vigilante on March 20, 2008 at 10:46 PM

Believe it or not, that was posted on Hot Air back in 2006.

Reminds me of the Everyday Normal Guy and Everyday Normal Guy 2

Language warning on both.

clghitis on March 21, 2008 at 11:08 AM

Allah, I didn’t realize you were breaking out into the music field too. Must be hard juggling music and blogging…

Tim Burton on March 21, 2008 at 1:11 PM

This IS satire!

southsideironworks on March 21, 2008 at 3:29 PM

…it is a joke, right? “…Gimme 7 minutes, but dont move too much, you might only get 4…”?
