I was just checking out Dafna's work on another blog and i noticed that she had posted something about the Teriyaki Boyz. For those of you who dont know - they are a japanese hip hop supergroup cruated by Pharell and the dude that invented bathing ape (i dont care for that nonesense).

Anyway they are piss poor. I dont speak any japanese, my brother does, and he agrees with me that they are poor. So lets be real and call them out, they are the japanese d4l. The only thing that makes me even give them any of my valuable time is that they have neptunes beats.

But not the fresh like butter neptunes beats that sends tingles down your body but those crappy ones that littered common's last album and have made the virginia duo lose their sheen. So they are in summary a shit musical version of the shit clothes that their paymaster and his american friend produce.

and it makes sense that the american artists that have collaborated with them need a bit of a push in that market. Which is one of the few where people still buy cd's artists want the exposure Busta, Chris Brown. Mark Ronson, Dj Shadow, Ad Rock. Kanye West, Pusha T, Fam-Lay, Cut Chemist, Dan the Automator, Just Blaze and Dj Premier ---- shame on you.

To be honest i guess it's the musical equivalent of when us actors do japanese tv commercials.
Well thanks to the internet we can see it all and unfortunately hear it all as well.
Note no chad to be seen in any of their work. (Invisible C is staying away for a reason.)
