Kevye West: 808s & Expiration Dates (Guac Lockdown)
Available on YouTube in HIGH DEFINITION : Just Click WATCH IN HD
Pitch auto-correction and a simple beat can make anything chart-worthy; even a freestyle about guacamole and expired milk. In case anyone's curious, the music took fifteen minutes, the vocals took five and it was all created in GarageBand with built-in effects. Joe shot the video with me in about six hours over the course of a weekend, assembled a pretty much final edit in an hour, and Luis polished everything up in After Effects in an evening or two.
Do me a favor would ya? If you enjoyed the video, please spam it out to other like-minded netizens. Thanks in advance!

Awesome video! Truly epic! Keep em comin!
Epic Win!
Nice vid, but I can already hear Kanye's come back. "Kevin Periera did this because he hates black people." This guy takes himself way to seriously to let something as good as this go. Especially if the humor is at his expense.
Outstanding vid! Nice production. I guess the answer is finally out there your definately a spitter not a swallower!
Simply incredible.
Awesome job, K-Per! Kanye takes himself waaaaay too seriously.
Hey Kev this was absolutely amazing you just inspired me to download After Effects and start learning to use it to add some nice looking effects to my videos :) I would really appreciate if you could tell me a tutorial or what kind of effect is used it has this nice shinny blue effect makes the video look very high quality :D
You mentioned his dead mother? .... OUCH! Pretty amusing, otherwise!
Hahaha, that was a great vid Kevye
Thanks, you started my morning with a laugh
epic win. I hope Kanye sees the humor as we do. But a little part of me is hoping he whines about it. The thought of a Kevye vs Kanye freestyle (rock band?) challenge is freakin' me out man!
ftmfw good shit kev... but the mom part was kinda wrong.. but other than that fuckin hilarious. the shades diy shutter shades are the shit!!
OMFG lol that ish was effin awesome. Kevye is da bombbbbzz lol. Damn this was crazy. I am posting this up everywhere I can kevin you deserve some major cool points. And the mentionin the mother is like, your not dissin his mom its part of the persona of Kevye! Awesome man!
PEREIRIA YOU ARE A GENIUS
you got any more ideas in the works
Definitely worth the wait!!! :) I actually hope this gets shown on AotS, you deserve to get props for this.
"Yo momma dead" message on the iPhone - classic. LOVED it.
im infecting the interwebs with this.
Kevin- That video was awesome! I did however learn not to eat cereal and milk while watching it. We both basically spit out our milk in sync I was laughing so hard. Thanks for this and have a great week.
I luvs ya Kev, but the mom thing was kinda rough.
EPIC WIN!!!!!
this made the whole milk cuddling picture make sense...
good job though, very funny
you're forgetting to include the years that it took you to perfect those sweet dance moves.
Effing hilarious! That is easily one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. I'll certainly be sending the link to all my peeps. I wish I had people like you to work on sketches with- your production values put my work to shame. Hell, late-night infomercials put my production values to shame. Check out our website; I hope you find us half as funny as your stuff
Is it bad that I laughed at "my mother's dead"? I mean, seriously, I LOL'd hard.
Oh, and watching you squirt milk out of your mouth in high definition = pure win.
Dude, I'm totally going to embed this to my personal blog. LOL. God job, good job!
My blog
Awesome kev.Don't worry I'll help your cause.
