Web Series To Watch: Debt Collectors

Today while wasting time on Youtube, like I am known to do from time to time, I stumbled across Debt Collectors.  It's a comedy web series about a fictional government agency that throws debtors in jail.  Thankfully debtors' prisons are a thing of the past so you can breathe easy.  In the first video the creator Christina Martin and cast discuss the genesis of the series.

There's good news and there's bad news.  The bad news is that the interview is conducted by Jason Whitlock, who's a jerk ninety percent of the time he opens his mouth.  The good news is that the interview was still great and informative.  They hit on a lot of great topics:

Oh No - 3 Dollars (Featuring MF DOOM) (Music Video)

3 Dollars will be featured on Oh No's forthcoming release, Ohnomite.

About Ohnomite from press release:

Oh No (born Michael Jackson; younger brother of Madlib and son of singer Otis Jackson) was granted unprecedented access to the Rudy Ray Moore / Dolemite audio archives and given free rein to slice, dice, chop and sample his way through the classic-yet-absolutely-filthy catalog. He was able to use legendary material from The Human Tornado, Petey Wheatstraw, the Dolemite Soundtrack and more, plus a multitude of previously unreleased and alternate acapellas and instrumentals. The end result is Ohnomite (available on 6-5-2012), a 19 track head-banging extravaganza of sloppy funk, dirty soul, and brainy lyricism, all aimed at one thing- making your head nod and your ass shake. And when you add to that guests spots from the likes of Evidence, Phife Dawg, The Alchemist, Erick Sermon, Rapper Pooh, MED, Guilty Simpson, Roc Marciano, Sticky Fingaz, Chino XL, Roc C, Prozack Turner, Termanology, Frank Nitt and this cut with MF Doom “3 Dollars.”
