At Noisey, we don’t like to blow our own trumpet (although one of our interns has had both of their ribs removed, but that's another story). But put it this way: it took the Beatles over 40 years to sell around 20 million copies of The White Album. But in just over one year, we’ve had 200 million YouTube views. So we’re not just better than The Beatles, we’re ten times better than the Beatles.Since we launched our YouTube channel with M.I.A.’s Bad Girls in February 2012 we’ve been paint balling with Tyler, got A$AP Rocky and Danny Brown together, and brought an Action Bronson gig to an old people’s home in Hackney. I guess we do kind of deserve a pat on the back. Maybe even a gold statue. Oh fuck it, here is the rundown of the best of our Noisey YouTube content in what we’re shamelessly calling the Noisey awards. Drum roll please…
Most watched…Who actually listens to Skrillex?This gem comes from our Airplane Boys interview. Josef clearly took offence at the Canadian rappers hood credentials “DUDE…IN TORONTO THE ONLY THING YOU GOT URBAN…MIGHT BE ELK ON ELK CRIME…” But seriously Josef, Elk crime causes a lot of hassle that our fair Canadians don’t need.
Scariest dude…Freaky eye guy from Big Night OutOn this British Masters special, Lydon talks about how Harvey Keitel pointed a gun around him and what it was like bossing about Miles Davis.
Best People Versus…Waka FlockaWaka gives us the real meaning of “Rooster In My Rari” (hint: it’s not about having a chicken in your car) and also how best to deal with the haters (hint: it's not shower them with love).
Best interviewer…Ex gangster Dave Courtney
