Bangs took da world to da Mooooovies...shawtyyyyyyyy

[Interview I did for Vice with my boy Bangs. My boy Tommy took the pretty photos]

You remember my boy Bangs, right? He’s an internet phenomenon/international hip-hop superstar all thanks to his smash-hit single “Take U To Da Movies”, which revolves around taking a shorty to the movies and buying her popcorn and a drink. If you haven’t seen the video clip, watch it NOW. It’s the best. We were all over that shit when it first hit YouTube. No wonder he’s been referred to as everything from the “Sudanese 50 Cent” to “the illest rhyme-spitter this world has ever seen!”

I caught up with Bangs and had a good long chin-wag and photoshoot in the driveway of the carpark that happened to be next-door to the peculiar Latin-themed restaurant he was playing at in Sydney. We talked about popcorn, ladies and how inspirational Chingy is. Bangs turned out to be much more likeable than Kanye West at an awards show.

Bangs "Take U to Da Movies"

This is my boy Bangs. He's an internet phenomenon and a superstar hip hop artist. He's going places. This is the best song I've heard all year. Perhaps ever. I don't feel complete if I don't listen to at least once a day. I really feel that Bangs is currently more relevant as a superstar hip hop artist than Kanye West. Bangs would never make a little girl with blonde hair cry on stage. He would probably take her to the movies and buy her popcorn instead.

I implore you to pause the video at 2:17. Actually here, I'll do it for you.

This is Bangs "reprezenting" face. I wouldn't fuck with a man with a face like that. Neither should you.

Also, check out his website. It's amazing. My boy Bangs really has it all.
