Interactive Rap Video About Internet Fame Is Super Meta
There have been a ton of interactive music videos rolling out this year — from Arcade Fire’s “Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains),” to Chris Bathgate’s “Big Ghost,” to Ellie Goulding’s “Lights” — but none have been quite as Web-oriented as Yung Jake’s “Embedded.”
If you’ve always dreamed of directing a video for pop legends The Beach Boys (dibs on “Barbara Ann” — even though it’s a cover), now is your chance. The No-Longer-Boys are asking fans to create vids for “Good Vibrations” and “Heroes and Villains” to celebrate the release of their new disc, The SMiLE Sessions.
