Who Dat?
A semi-regular SlapClap feature that posits a burning Internet question, to the Internet community, about Internet personalities on the Internet.
This week, the Lastnightsparty guy.
*Note: SlapClap does not in any way condone the Lastnightsparty lifestyle, Cobrasnake, or any other as such hipster reclamation project of raves in 1992, coke meets in the 80’s, or 70’s Hippie cut parties.
Who Dat?
The “Where’s Waldo?” of wasted youth, popping up in Lastnightsparty photos and a few puzzling appearances in their YouTube video whack-offs. If you haven’t seen those videos by the way, they are very much here tagged with the keywords “Gallo” and “talentlessness.” So who is the guy?
I have no idea. Sorta got distracted watching those videos then kinda gave up trying to find out. I did spend about 4 minutes on Google searching for “black guy Brooklyn perm,” “Frankie Lymon hipster,” “lastnightsparty + rehab” (1,100 results by the way), and “McCarren Pool mascot,” but I came up with zilch. He’s not even micro-famous, which is pretty low since the only people who care about micro-celebrities are other micro-celebrities and Bravo. Deplete of options, nowhere else to turn, the question Who Dat? remained unanswered, so we just made some stuff up:
He’s 26-year old Eugene but everyone north of Metropolitan Ave. calls him “Hollywood,” a name he stole from that Outkast song “Da’ Art of Storytellin’” off the Aquemini album (solid).
His favorite movie is Domino if Sofia Coppola directed it; he’s never been to his family reunion; he was bored with The Artic Monkey’s three months before they were that years Clap Your Hands Say Yeah; he’s got Kyp Malone’s cell number; he eats at Enid’s at least four times a week; in all those photos of him at parties … he’s really very sad.
