NEWPORT STATE OF MIND
02 Aug 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
The more awesome of you will recall the mention we gave to the song “Island State Of Mind” which was a spoof of Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ hit “New York State Of Mind.” Instead of being all about New York, the content had to do with Tasmania – a rather humorous take of Tasmania too, […]

UNDERCOVER KARAOKE
30 Jul 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
I haven’t quite gotten over the fact that the word is pronounced “Karee Yokee,” and yet there is no “e” in the middle. But that aside, karaoke fansd and general trickster will enjoy this little video, sent in by one of our fortitudinous LSM 12-14 readers. The video features US songstress, Jewel (would you?), in […]

“GWYNETH PALTROW” MAKES “MUSIC”
28 Jul 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Full time human being impersonator, Gwyneth Paltrow, has given us all a perfectly-weighted surprise (shocks are never perfect) by perfectly capably singing an authentic-sounding but none-too abrasive country music song. It’s titled Country Strong. She reportedly recorded the song as part of the sound track to one or other upper-middle tier blockbuster film about a […]

DR DRE AND SNOOP COVER BY BEN FOLDS – PURE QUALITY GENIUS
28 Jul 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
I don’t know how this one slipped through the radar. Just when I thought people weren’t churning out 100% pure uncut humour anymore, this Ben Folds vide from 2006 surfaces. It’s got him covering the song “Bitches Aint Shit” – the hard-core rap song originally by Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg. But he didn’t just […]

WYCLEF JEAN – DON’T GO TOWARDS THE LIGHT
27 Jul 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
You hear the news? Multi-talented musician and purveyor of all things chilled, Wyclef Jean, is perhaps, potentially, maybe, could-be, considering running as a presidential candidate in the forthcoming Haitian elections. Apparently he’s been tempted to run because of a grassroots youth following lobbying strongly for his political voice in that country. It’s called Face to […]

SIMON COWELL SUED FOR BEING NASTY – CUE SURPRISED FACE
23 Jul 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Simon Cowell is a news maker. He’s made his mark by being the asshole judge on shows like Idols, America’s Got Talent, and Britain’s Got Talent. More importantly, he’s earned the reputation of an asshole who very seldom makes a bad call. So some might regard the man to be evil, others may hold the […]

JUST JINJER TOUR KICKS OFF NEXT WEEK
21 Jul 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Just yesterday I received an email from a reader saying they watched Just Jinjer in Johannesburg who had this to say: “holy shitballs they rocked amazing stage presence I went with some music mates and they must have creamed their pants several times…especially when they did that water and ice drum solo…INSANE..” Now you don’t […]

WHY, AB, WHY?
21 Jul 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 12 Comments
You know AB De Villiers, the South African cricket team’s star batsman? Well, he’s singing now – the recorded kind. And, best of all, he’s making music videos for his moer lekker treffers. In his powerful ballad, titled Maak Jou Drome Waar (“Make Your Dreams Come True), AB teams up with previously obscure but presumably […]

CAROL THORNS – LIVE IN CAPE TOWN BEFORE SHE HEADS OFF TO THE EDINBURGH FESTIVAL!
19 Jul 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
2oceansvibe Radio has the great honour of hosting South Africa’s leading cellist, Carol Thorns, for even a brief few moments at an upcoming media launch. And whilst I might be fully aware of her talents, and the fact that she is heading to the Edinburgh Festival (25 shows!), I had no idea that she was […]

My GOD, I loved ninja stars as a child! It’s been so long and what better way for the beautiful stars of death to be reintroduced into my life, than in the new Brandon Flowers (The Killers lead singer) solo music video. And not only are they featured in the video, but it’s got Charlize […]

The first five vibers to email me (correct email after jump) get their name on the list, as well as the details […]

THE NEW 2OCEANSVIBE SONG – BY “I SCREAM & THE CHOCOLATE STIX”
06 Jul 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 5 Comments
Remember that band that made that sick “My Cape Town” song? The one that went viral and brought down the Seacom cable? Ja, that one. Ok, it didn’t really bring down Seacom, but it did manage to get Helen Zille to comment on their Facebook page. We’ve also featured it a couple of times on […]

YOLANDI VI$$ER PLAYS IT ICE COLD..
05 Jul 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
The smaller half of Die Antwoord’s vocal duo, Yolandi Vi$$er, has just klapped Hollywood in the hol, ek se. She was approached by some corporate naaiers who tjooned her to play the main betty in a movie-film version of Stieg Larsson’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Moreover, my pedigree chums, the film is to […]

ALBUM REVIEW: JACK JOHNSON’S NEW “TO THE SEA”
01 Jul 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
I was born and raised on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. At 17 I was the youngest invitee to make the finals at the Pipeline Masters. A week later my career as a pro surfer ended when an accident at the Pipeline put 150 stitches in my head. So, I turned to music and […]

REMEMBER THE GOLDFISH KIA CARS AD? WITH THE HAMSTERS? YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET!
25 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
You’ll recall the awesome ad that my buddy Colin Jeffery in the States (The Advertising Guy) did with Goldfish (The Blonde & Baby Jesus). Remember, it’s the one where the hamsters drive a KIA car with Goldfish playing on the system. Check the commercial out here. Incidentally, the same Goldfish tune Colin used in the […]

18 Jun 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
More often than not, the random assortment of gadgets that find their way onto my browser have absolutely no use whatsoever. But every now and then I stumble upon (trademark!) inventions that can truly improve our quality of life.

THEY WANT TO BE JUST LIKE YOU – “MY CAPE TOWN” BY I SCREAM AND THE CHOCOLATE STIX
17 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 19 Comments
As the official Cape Town 2010 World Cup Blog (Oooh! Whatcha gonna do with that one, FIFA?) we are always completely knocked out when a music video and song about Cape Town stands out from the rest. Even more so when it leaves us humming it all day long! These cats did this song and […]

The 2010 World Cup is well underway and emotions are running high – and it’s not just to do with the football!

KAHN FROM THE PARLOTONES RESPONDS
15 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 120 Comments
Today brought a multi-coloured shit-storm in the form of an article written on 2oceansvibe to do with the possibly confusing music video made by SA band The Parlotones. We suggested the band had gone too far in aligning themselves with another country, what with the song name being “Come Back As Heroes,” and the video […]

PARLOTONES ABANDON SOUTH AFRICA AND SUPPORT GERMANY
15 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 108 Comments
Product endorsements and commercialisation aside; aligning yourself with another nation and singing for their victory in a tournament which is being held on your home soil (a tournament in which your own country is competing), may well be the final straw for Parlotones fans. “Aligning” might be a bit tame. By the looks of their […]

SETH 1, GOLDFISH 1
08 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
I sent the incredibly awesome “Drummer Guy” video to Dom (The Blonde) and Dave (Baby Jesus) of Goldfish fame, before I put it up on 2oceansvibe the other day. I emailed it to them with the subject, “a gift for you – thank me later.” They responded that it was, indeed, genius. So today, Dom […]

ALBUM REVIEW: MEAT LOAF’S NEW “HANG COOL TEDDY BEAR”
27 May 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
It takes a recessionista’s ear to appreciate the genius of Meat Loaf. Meat Loaf has never been everyone’s cup of tea. Apart from one time in the late 70’s when Bat Out of Hell sold 48 million copies. Ok so yes, Meat Loaf was once everyone’s cup of tea, but that was before most of […]

IT IS NOW SAFE TO REMOVE GENE’S FLASH STICK
17 May 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Besides being at the age where his main desire should be trying to play online bingo for free, KISS bassist and all round grand daddy of rock, Gene Simmons, was recently accused of dry-humping an ESPN make-up artist, as some of you may have heard. After said make-up artist demanded $185 000 from Gene for […]
