WoW Moviewatch: Just HoT Me Now
Just HoT Me Now by Coma Niddy is an interesting take on rap in WoW parodies. Which, I guess, is another way of saying it doesn't have belfs in it. Well, it has blood elves doing stuff, but the main performer is an orc. I'm not sure if Coma is creating a genre of Orc Rap, but in the meantime, I definitely enjoyed his video.
The song was written by Coma Niddy, and features a number of interesting rhyme choices. I think Coma did a great job of making all the pieces come together and maintaining a narrative flow through the entire song. The soundtrack needed to focus a little more on the voices, since I felt like the lyrics could be tough to pick out against the music. Still, that kind of thing can be chalked up to personal performance, as I know a lot of professional music has the same dynamic.
The video, though, was spot on for this level of machinima. I don't often expect fancy graphics or complex storyboards from music-based videos. (Although, that certainly can be a plus.) I like seeing the musician play with the video action in tandem with his lyrics, which is something I think Coma Niddy did pretty well.

My main is a Blood Elf, and I admit I bursted into laughter when the tomato(apple?)hit the Pally in the face.

I could not hear the lyrics for the loud beat. Other than that I likes it.

Well, that was certainly interesting.
It was well done, and a nice change for the "rap genre" of WoW videos. I was glad to see that the only Belf in site was being pelted with fruit.

That was good. He rolled on my boots!

The female blood elf death animation looks like it was made for that.

1st thing: SO glad this was NOT BELF oriented this time. Good writing I laughed so hard on the boomkin "rollin on mah boots." thing.
2nd thing: Have I BECOME THAT OLD? Really? To me every second vid is rap/hip-hop and - UGH. Is no one doing videos with good old rock anymore?
I REALLY am hating on this genre a LOT aside from some great and innovative artists like K-Os or K'nann. It's all sounding the same to me. /sigh. I'm afraid I've become that crotchety ol' gal. ;)
Anytime there is a vid that doesn't use Rap or Death Metal then they've already got points from me. This one was fun despite my dislike of the genre. ;)

I guess this is the kind of music that kids listen to these days. /SHRUG
The Belf chick getting bonked on the head by an apple was the highlight of the vid.

Orc with Mike Tyson's voice + Belf getting fruit to the face = WIN.
I still need subtitles, though.

He actually kinda sounded like Snoop Dogg to me.
