The anthem of my summer has come. I was on Reddit late Tuesday night and I came across a strange post. A video, by DJ Snake & Lil Jon, Turn Down For What, that is so infectiously crazy that I couldn't help from dancing or hitting the repeat button.
The vid was up on the web for 2 days but is now set to private. Hopefully, you will get to see it's glory but until then I'll fill you in. The video starts out by flying up on a high rise to reveal a man on the roof. He is grimy, in sweat pants, and about to get wild. The song builds up to the chorus with Lil Jon yelling "Fire up, get loud, and let the body shots!" ((BASS DROP)) "Turn Down For What?!" Then the song goes off. The guy in sweats jumps up and body slams his junk into the floor, crashing through the ceiling and bringing the party at the same time. Crashing through the ceiling begins the turnt up twerk fest. He wildly gyrates in every way, crumping on the couch, and violating the t.v. All the while there is a girl in the room freaking out. She calls the cops and is on the line. Sweatpants dances over grabs the phone and yells "Turn down for what?!" which melts the officers FACE OFF just like the Nazis at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark. THEN he takes the phone and slams it on his junk, disintegrating the phone.
and guess what... that was the first 30 seconds of the video. It only get weirder and wilder from here on.
Lil Jon only says the two phrases but DJ Snake takes over with turntable excellence mixing and scratching over the thick bass line. With all the bass drops in the song and screwed up dance faces in the video I could only expect this song to be a club hit.
Crank it up, get loud, and get nasty because Johnny said so.
