    Kind of out of the loop here but did the rap video Jeff and Alex mention ever make it online yet? If it hasn't maybe as a community we can put the pieces to this mystery together.

    Me and @alex_navarro just made a guest appearance in a rap video, so E3 is pretty much OVER.

    What we Know

    • Video supposedly will make an appearance on World Star Hip-Hop
    • Jeff and Alex were sitting down and looking like disgruntled business men (presumably with what they were wearing 6-8-14)
    • They mentioned on day 2 of the e3 aftershow the name of the rapper as being Pinzee or Peezee.
    • It was shot on-location of their 2014 e3 set.

    I'm sure we'll never find out but you never know! If you got any other info or have found the video please let us know.

    I need to see this. I don't think if they were recording a rap video this week that we'll see it for a few weeks to a month.

    I definitely went through some stuff trying to find it. If there was any clear indication of the rappers name it'd probably be easier to find a youtube channel or something since most of them have one of those now a days. I think your right though that we won't see it for at least a couple of weeks.

    Make sure to search for aliases. The Rap Man, that client Dr. Tracksuit, The Wolf, etc.

    I'm confident that Jeff or Alex will link to the video when they find it.

    I think there would at least be a couple of weeks of turnaround before we see anything.

    Major label music videos or at least ones with decent production take a few weeks to a month.

    Not in my opinion. Uninspired lyrics that lack any deeper meaning, and boasting about having made it (flaunting money) when he clearly hasn't, doesn't do much for me. The synthy beat was sort of cheesy too. Lyrically it wasn't terrible per say, but just sort of mediocre. Again, that's just my opinion. Jeff and Alex obviously made it 1000x better though. He should of let them spit some rhymes. They both have a history of rapping in a band, especially Jeff.

    What a first post. Also, good lord, the camera is having some trouble focusing in some parts of that video.

    I'm not sure I get it. Is this supposed to be sincere or ironic? It's pretty unappealing either way, right? What the fuck is rap?
