Video: Big Bad Wolf by Duck Sauce


Duck Sauce premieres new visuals for their single, "Big Bad Wolf," just in time for Halloween. The concept of the comical video is disturbing but creative and well-made via the brilliant mind of Keith Schofield.

The duo of A-Trak and Armand van Helden as literal dick-heads? Weird but don't worry, there is actually an interesting story behind this. According to A-Trak, the clip "is pretty simple, and it can mean anything, really, so we wanted the video to have its own narrative." Also, in their own way, they wanted to bring back the original concept of making a dance video. Says A-Trak: "Remember when dance music videos used to actually be creative? Like when you think back to Aphex Twin, Fatboy Slim and Daft Punk… I don't know why the genre's videos became so generic in recent years." 

More from A-Trak:


"When Keith [Schoffield] came up with this idea of 'crotchfaces,' we just thought it was hilarious," A-Trak continues. "He started coming up with all these gags and describing the characters living in this sort of parallel world, and we were sold. He wasn't sure if we'd be down to play the leads, but our take on this was, if we're going to do this, we need to go all the way. So we played the dickheads, essentially."

How To Make It In America Presents: Luis Guzman


HBO and the cast of How To Make It In America pays tribute to the man behind the Rasta Monsta Hustle, Luis Guzman. The crew and a few of his friends (Justin Bieber, Mark Wahlberg, Kid Cudi, Bryan Greenberg, Lake Bell, Victor Rasuk, Duck Sauce, Q-Tip, Pharrell Williams, Asher Roth, Pusha T, and many more) put together a video and own version of Duck Sauce's prized trophy hit, "Barbra Streisand," as they take you around New York's Lower East Side and show you the ropes. But before we proceed with the video, we have a few words from our sponsor...

“Rasta Monsta, tastes like fruit punch, pero spicy.” - Rene 


"New York's LES is a place like no other -- hustlers, immigrants, rabbis and rockers but amidst the melting pot, one man stands alone -- LUIS GUZMAN."
