Fonzworth Bentley is pretty damn jamming

Yes, you read that right. The dude with the tap dance shoes and Mary Poppins umbrella who made a name for himself as Puffy's manservant. Yes, the same dude who posed with Kanye & the Revolution in this infamous picture.

Say what you will about Mr. Bentley, but damned if he don't make some cool music. He proves it on his new mixtape, C.O.L.O.U.R.S (Cool Outrageous Lovers of Unique Raw Style), which dropped a couple of weeks ago. While he takes time to celebrate the wonders of "Venice Beaches," you can tell that home is where the heart is — Backbone and Slimm Calhoun make an appearance on "Bunkin" and even the ever-elusive Andre 3000 shows up (so, what if the verse is like, three years old).

Here's looking forward to more from the gentleman of hip-hop: Download C.O.L.O.U.R.S

Check out the video for "Venice Beaches"

Wow, that video is terrible. The lyrics, however, are hilarious. I particularly care for the character saying no thanks to the Zinfandel because "they gots Gewurztraminers."

yeah, terrible video. They could have at least gone a mile down the street and shot footage of the actual Venice Beach village, strand and skate park. Weak. Why even bother with recognizing this?
