Check out the new hit single from G-Money Harrison, “Let Out the Funk,” produced by Nathan.
You crazy for this one, Nathan! I would say something about how much pussy this song is going to get these guys, except that I HATE GOING TO JAIL. The point is, this is what we in the industry call a “panty dropper.” I’m sorry to be so gross, but if you have a problem with what I’m saying, take it up with the R&B Industry! I don’t make up the official and very real terms that everyone uses and are real for sure. Anyway, as any incredibly talented and soulful rhythm and blues duo knows, if you have a smoky and seductive monster hit on your hands, the best thing to do is make TWO MUSIC VIDEOS for it. Alternate “Let Out the Funk” video after the jump:
Trying to decide which of these two supremely funky videos is funkier is the Sophie’s Choice of funk. OK, that is a very lame and worn out joke to make, but it doesn’t matter, because G-Money Harrison have FRESHNESS to spare. If anything, they are too fresh. (Thanks for the tip, Napoleon Complex.)

The kid in the orange golf shirt is actually an 80-year old man, right? Because he walks/moves/holds his arms like he is an 80-year old man.
Regardless, my favorite part of this song is how it’s not at all repetitive and the lyrics are so well enunciated. Awesome song, great job!
It’s actually George Harrison. He’s got that Benjamin Button shit.
Oh my god… I read this comment and then watched the video. He really does move like he’s geriatric!
Kidz like youtube, music, and Monty Clift’s posture.
oh is this that lil wayne and eminem video you were talking about?
YES! I feel so much hometown pride. Look, there’s the pizza place at the end of my block! And the Greek pizza guy at the end! And the football field at the high school!
I know these guys are destined for fame and fortune.
One of these guys is your cousin and the other is his older/younger friend who is too young/old to hang out with him, right?
Yo dawg, this neighborhood is mad dangerous. If you leave your calzone sittin’ on tha curb for more than like 10 min, you better believe some dog is gonna come straight up and eat it. My moms even said that the other day she saw a black guy walkin’ down our street and like, he wasn’t even an orthodontist! It ain’t easy growin up on tha street.
Yo, bro. You better NOT be jaggin on HP. We is the illest.
Yo I’m mad hungry right now, lets roll down to the 7-11 and swipe a couple of MD20/20s and then run up on Panera bread for some chipotle chicken paninis.
Nathan’s so bad-ass he doesn’t even PAY for back-up dancers. He’s all like “Yo, lil’ bro, you and your bud gonna be in ma music vid.” DOOOOPE!
With Lil’ Wayne in jail, I geuss we’ll have to make do with G-Money Harrison.
Love the kids dancing in the background at 1:05. One appears to fall off whatever they’re standing on, the other kid tries to help him back on (how sweet!) and the kid bats his arm away!
This video is too ill.
And I love the little backup dancers by the pizza place!
I think the white kid might be blind. Seriously.
Ray Charles 2.0
But who will play him in his eventual biopic? I think I know.
No one else could so perfectly embody that potent mixture of soulful man and 12 year old boy.
They should really consider renaming their group “Blind and Def”.
They say when you lose one sense, your other senses become highly acute to make up for the difference. I think it’s clear that we can thank this kid’s unfortunate disability for these insane, funky-as-shit beats.
And that was a reply to batteredgnome. Whoops.
I made it to 0:24. What’s my prize?
You get to press play and watch the rest of it; also an entire second video. Don’t thank me, thank Nathan and G-Money Harrison.

I totally love this video and these kids. Here is why I can’t decide which video is my favorite:
VIDEO #1 PROS: the one kid’s backpack is on for all but 3 seconds (why not in that scene? interesting.), orange polo.
VIDEO #1 CON: the other kid is only wearing his 3-D glasses from Up for a few scenes
VIDEO #2 PROS: much more action, much more 3-D glasses.
VIDEO#2 CON: no backpack. where is the backpack?
Clearly that scene without the backpack is from Flash-Sideways 2004.
O.K., so I want to let the funk out, I really do, but I just don’t know how…should I just wander aimlessly through my town? There it goes…
Is this song about bad breath?
I must say, when it comes to pubescent males, letting the funk out is not difficult in the least. Usually a raised arm does the trick.
or taking off a shoe.
Nathan, who owns a pair of prescription glasses but refuses to wear them during the video (aesthetics) even though he experiences severe blurred vision without them and must use G-Money Harrison as a guide while walking the streets of Ashland, Ohio (as evidenced by his bizarre arm placements and stilted locomotion), is wearing the 3D glasses he kept as a momento from when his family went to see Avatar because he owns no other pair of sunglasses.
At least his mom bought him a polo shirt that is the color of a prison jumpsuit. He’s hardcore like that.
the white one is wearing these, right?
The gawky* kid probably insisted on being in the video, because how often are producers in with the main artist? Do you get a cameo in a movie if you produced it? Maybe.
*I would act about the same if I had to star in such a video.
This is like the middle school Chromeo. These kids are awesome.
“C’mon, Tanner! You and Brayden just have to dance in the background for minute and we’ll buy you some Snapple. YES, AND you can have run of the DVR when we get back to the house.”

OK, after checking out their YouTube channel, I have decided I totally love these guys. They have won me over.
Their new instrumental jam is the bomb, and apparently they have decided ‘Let out the Funk’ is ‘wack’. Also, Nathan does all of the responding to the comments, because he doesn’t know if Glenn (aka G-Money) ever goes on there.
I can’t wait until they get their new equipment!!!

Did I really hear the lyric “I love bongos, drums, and guns”?
Because that is straight up poetry right there.
I thought it was “I got bongos, drums, and guitar….let out the funk, you know who you are”
G-Money is the Bob Dylan of the 21st century.
I’m actually really bummed that there were no literal bongos at that point in the jam. Missed opportunity.
It was all same o’ same o’ until that puddle step at 1:17. Thought I knew!
you don’t understand. they have the funk. its a medicine ball covered in teets

If there isn’t a G-Money Harrison/Final Placement collaboration in the works, then there is no justice in this world. None.
Sunny D and Purple Stuff.
That is what they are going inside to drink in slow motion at the end of the second video.
Even the pizza man wants you to let out the funk
I keep reading the name of this sweet jam as “Let Out The Funk” but I’m not totally convinced they’re not singing “glitter phone.” I guess I’m just not ready for these next-level beats.
