The Audacity of Dope

This new video from Milosh is one of the more enjoyable clips I’ve seen in recent memory.  Yes, it’s a bit cheesy, but hell, I’m a bit cheesy and I appreciate this kind of stuff.  For those not familiar, Milosh is a dope vocalist and you may have heard some of his stuff from the Rhye project he released with Robin Hannibal last year.

This video was created while Milosh and his wife traveled around the globe for the Rhye tour.  I’ll let him expound:

This is a video that Alexa and myself put together that is essentially a collection of footage over this past year while we traveled the Rhye record around the world. We went to 40 separate places in a span of about 6 months and we got to see some beautiful places as a result. We tried to set aside time in between performances to see things, just take them in and enjoy ourselves. We chose to use this footage for this video as it fits the whole message, the point of the song perfectly. Enjoy the opportunities now while you have them, they are not always going to be there. Traveling is one of the most important, mind broadening things one can do, being able to do that together has been beyond a blessing.

While I don’t envy most aspects of the celebrity life, this would be one.  Being able to travel the world and take in new sights/experience would be amazing, especially doing it all with your best friend.

Milosh’s new album, Jetlag, is out now.

The YouTube description pretty much sums up this video:

“A cavalcade of found footage cabaret.”

So you know what you’re getting with the visuals, but it’s all about the song itself.  Too smooth.

The hardest thing in life is figuring out what you want.  Once you do that, you just go get it.

Rhye just released a new version of the video for their “Open” record, which was one of my favorite songs of 2012.  Peep the original video here.

Yesterday I posted Rhye’s “The Fall” but I was put up on “Open” today as well and it’s an amazing record.  The video above is fairly NSFW, but it’s not trashy or anything.  According to the singer in the group, Milosh (a guy…don’t be fooled by the voice), “I hate that music is so debaucherous these days. It’s all overly sexualized in a perverse way. Love is beautiful, and sex is beautiful, and I don’t think those things should be shown in a grotesque way. I’m just attempting to express love and sensuality in a very honest way.”

The video below, where Milosh sings “Open” to his wife in their living room (which appears to be the first time she’s heard the song), speaks directly to that sentiment:

And finally, here’s the Victoria’s Secret ad using this record with Miranda Kerr. Just cause.

Yes please.

Me likey. The debut album from Rhye, Woman, is set to be released in March.
