The Trevor Kane-directed clip casts El-P and Killer Mike as EMTs during a nightshift down in Mike's hometown of Atlanta, though they appear to be much better at rapping than saving people's lives (they even go so far as to flip off an old man who's clearly having a heart attack). Fellow Atlantan Cole Alexander of the Black Lips makes a brief cameo.

    André 3000 performed in jumpsuits with script on them as well as a "sold out" tag during Outkast's 2014 reunion tour. The words he wore asked fans big questions such as, "across cultures, darker people suffer most. why?" "art or fart?" "have you stopped growing?" and Mike Brown-inspired "can one rest in peace & violence?" Some suits didn't ask questions but rather just made statements such as "thinking deeply about shallow sh*t," "everything is temporary," and "I forgive you, now your turn." Now fans can immerse themselves in his message at a new art exhibit (not a fart exhibit, in this case). As Pitchfork reports, André 3000 and the Savannah College of Art and Design in Miami have teamed up for an exhibition called i feel ya: SCAD + André 3000 Benjamin. The exhibit will run from Dec. 23 through Dec. 14 at Miami's Mana Miami and will display all 47 of the rapper's jumpsuits.

  • REVIEW: Bulgarian Soprano Sonya Yoncheva Debuts Memorable Mimì in Middling 'La Bohème' at Metropolitan Opera

    Recently, the Metropolitan Opera has made headlines for all the wrong reasons. Be it pre-season labor disputes with the man Peter Gelb, opening night unrest care of Leon Klinghoffer and Rudy Guiliani or just a simple technical glitch during the broadcast at your local cinema, what's been lost as of late is a lot. Such controversies, however inflated, do obscure the institution's real mission statement. First and perhaps foremost, is the fact that the Met remains this country's most enduring repertory company. For every Klinghoffer or Iolanta premiere in 2014-15, there are as many, if not more, reheated Aidas and prefab Meistersingers. Come the holidays, highly touted new productions of Le Nozze di Figaro and The Merry Widow will run alongside evergreen faire like Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Hansel and Gretel. And, let's be honest, it is the latter, lighter of these programming options that the casual opera-goer is wont to experience there at Lincoln Center. In fact, Mr. Gelb is banking on it.
