Keep getting this song stuck in my head, when I see all the panic buyers raiding the shops and treating everyone else like shit. Humanity's lost, man. It's taken a pandemic to show everyone's true colours.
I got this cd, "white people" for my birthday from my brother. Me and my buddy put it in driving through a snowstorm from Burlington, VT, Church St, to Boston, Back Bay and we crashed during this song. It was worth it.
WOW!I I thought Del was out the game...lol..I heard that voice on this song and i was like WHAT DEL? no way! I thought he was making another alter ego but he just doing a calabo!
@uberari: funny that, the origin of Handsome Boy Modelling School came from an episode of 'Get a Life' where the lead character tries to become a male model. Dan and Paul poke fun at the superficial end of society, including the upper class but also the transparent careers of society, including modelling (vanity) and others involved in the entertainment industry.
@AudioInklined: Really that is a comment to everyone who either believes hip-hop is dead or dying. The DJ's and M.C's are out there, you just got to go out there, read magazines like MixMag and XXL, go on youtube look @ one major artist then on the related items he will colaberate with other artists so listen to their stuff, go on the online shopping sites and look up the artists that fall into the hip-hop and listen to the 15 second previews...but importantly buy the albums to keep them going.
@MiseducatedPup well, I know I like 9th and his work with Murs, so i will check out the other proj. you mention. and as far as guru and premier, I totally agree, I couldn't agree more in fact.
@AudioInklined: Well until Dan and Paul can agree on the superficial aspect of money, the Modelling School will not be opening any time soon. I moved on to Strange Fruit Project, Pete Rock & InI, One Be Lo and Sky Zoo & 9th Wonder. Just hope these two can get back together and sort out any bad feelings, cause no-one wants another Guru/DJ Premier situation EVER again.
@MiseducatedPup Anymore, someone who wants to experience "real" Hip-Hop should try to find a solid label to support. Definitive Jux, for example, has been around long enough to have a good stable of artists, but isn't too overtly commercialized like some of the bigger, more well-known labels. Hip-Hop/Rap isn't too complex, in fact, it's more or less a repetitive beat and looped sample driven over and over again, so to find the "good stuff" is tough, but it surely is, as you said, out there.
@uberari: During the making of 'White People', Dan and Paul were not getting on, with Paul citing in an interview: "It's done, that's it. It was business things. Things that needed to be addressed weren't addressed...When I announced my retirement, that was it. He didn't call me...the Handsome Boy manager didn't call. Either they hate my guts, or it just didn't work out." BTW, to whoever gave my previous comment a thumbs down, please explain as to why!
@TyphoidBryan: Record labels have nothing to do with trying to experience REAL hip-hop, fro example as much as I enjoy Jean Grae, I think Strong Arm Steady's sound is shit. They are both on the same label (Talib's Blacksmith Records). Aftermath Records only draws because of Eminem and 50 Cent, but I am going to wait until Dre's. As for Def Jux...I MEAN Definitive Jux, if they feel dropping guys like Murs, Mr Lif, Dizzee Rascal and Cannibal Ox, then the company must be making millions(!)

@BCK1970 Yes, Yes it is! Look up Lovage you will love it!

Dat Lyrics.
You know what you're talking about here.

Is that Mike Patton behind the camera?
2:23 holy shit is that alton brown?
I The a big messege in this song. Wake up peop"le,
Relaxing you can't feel what's happening"
@MiseducatedPup
well, I know I like 9th and his work with Murs, so i will check out the other proj. you mention.
and as far as guru and premier, I totally agree, I couldn't agree more in fact.
Como cuando eres el único que habla español y estás aquí por el señor Kapranos :v
@thepandadan Well Handsome Boy Modeling School does consist of Dan the Automator. I'm sure him and Prince Paul produced this together.
lol, what slick rick do you listen to???
also, "the situation's bad, not meaning good."
yo what up FAM ya dont know i AM?
What up Fam?
that my friend would be Del tha Funkee Homosapien
@ShellyWebsterBrutal Joking right? :D
this dude Del The Funky Homosapien, sounds like the rapper in Gorillaz :D
@mit4c ACE!
@montypython1533
right on...thank you tons! =]
Hes not a member of Gorillaz but has been featured on some of their songs, notably Clint Eastwood.
@uberari: How so?
Is that Deltron?
This is Del the Funky Homosapien
Deltron is just his project with Dan the Automator
yeah, but this is del being produced by automator, so it pretty much deltron with a name change and the addition of prince paul
But it's not SciFi so...
iamnobody2 demon days was a deltron album too
@ShellyWebsterBrutal its him
@AudioInklined: Well until Dan and Paul can agree on the superficial aspect of money, the Modelling School will not be opening any time soon. I moved on to Strange Fruit Project, Pete Rock & InI, One Be Lo and Sky Zoo & 9th Wonder. Just hope these two can get back together and sort out any bad feelings, cause no-one wants another Guru/DJ Premier situation EVER again.
@ShellyWebsterBrutal My comment was regarding Deltron not Dan the Automator...
_Where's the loooOOOo00000OOOOve?_
#adonistunes
So I assume that no-one else got the deltron 3030 reference?
@MiseducatedPup
they'll get back together. shit was too classy and handsome for it to be gone and done forever.
is that chad muska in the video lol
Dyrus brought me here
Fun Fact: Del is ice cubes cousin
@ShellyWebsterBrutal really? He has been rapped with the Gorillaz before...
😔
Is that the guy from the gorillaz?

Dyrus.
imaqtpie brought me here
dyrus
@boardingtj This is like 6 years old man.
DEL forever mutha fuckas.
@uberari: During the making of 'White People', Dan and Paul were not getting on, with Paul citing in an interview:

BTW, to whoever gave my previous comment a thumbs down, please explain as to why!
This is rly werid coz I freakin love Dyrus but he didn't bring me here :o I just like this song.
sorry but I'm here only for Alex Kapranos
dat avatar
It sure looks like Alton but I don't think its him.
Is this the dude from Gorillaz
Yea
Andy Warhol appears
I really dislike the intro. But the beat and Del is awesome
Another group that broke up because of money...a shame in this case as they managed to cross music genres so easily with who they worked with...

do some research
I love Deltron. But that opening on the second verse at 2:04 was just awful, especially for Del. They shoulda had him write new lines there.
ur mom
I hate how a video can ruin a good song. This shit is irrelevant to the message of this song.
+madkem1 I dont think so... Everything going on in this video is just illustrates how the world has gone mad
Bunk. The video is a fucking party and fashion show. It has nothing to do with the world.
I feel that the video as well as the song is a statement regarding the vanity of the people in our world.
madkem1 you really dont understand sarcasm do you?
Skyhapper well put
