Flight Of The Conchords

Flight Of The Conchords is a new show on HBO that's based on the adventures of a band of the same name. These two guys from New Zealand called Bret and Jemaine comprise the band and the show is a fictionalized account of their living in New York and trying to get gigs for their band. The show is also interspersed with music videos based on their songs, which can best be described as in the vein of Tenacious D, with somewhat ridiculous and funny lyrics.

The show is goddamned hysterical. You should watch it. That's all I really have to say about it, but the main reason I wrote this post was to say that the two best names in the history of rap are these two guys' alter egos, the Rhymenoceros and the HipHopopotamus. Here's the video:



Incidentally, what a fantastic rhyme, "They call me the HipHopopotamus, got flows that glow like phospherous, poppin' off the top of this esophagus."
