Julieta Venegas farts butterflies

What happens when you voraciously eat flowers? You fart butterflies, of course.

Yes, this is the main plot on visual display in the Julieta Venegas music video Bien o Mal. Now we know she's Mexican, but a music video all about farting? Yes. And that is one of the many reasons why WE LOVE HER.

Julieta Venegas grew up in Tijuana and began studying music at the age of eight. She went on to join several bands, before starting a career on her own. In addition to singing and writing her own songs, she plays instruments including acoustic guitar, accordion, and keyboard. She has sold more than 7 million albums worldwide, won five Latin Grammys, one Grammy, and she just got nominated for a 2011 Grammy for Best Latin Pop Album.

Her style is a bit folky, whimsical and very soulful. Her voice is gorgeous, and there is something in her eyes that draws you in. Oh yeah, and like we said - she makes videos about beautiful women farting butterflies. Check it out:

Thai Hip Hop Rock Fusion

If you are looking for the best Hip Hop out of Thailand, then Joey Boy is your man.

Born into a Thai-Chinese family, Joey Boy started listening to hip hop as a 14 years old skateboarder. His real breakthrough as an artist came years later, in 1995, when Joey Boy began collaborating with multi-platinum Canadian reggae artist, Snow.

That's right - Snow - singer of the 90s classic Informer.

In 1995, Joey Boy flew to Toronto to record Fun, Fun, Fun with Snow and the single went on to become one of the top selling singles in Thailand. The video for Fun, Fun, Fun featured Snow and Joey Boy touring Toronto, and in 1997, Joey Boy appeared on Snow's single, Me and Joey.

Since then, Joey Boy has collaborated with Will.i.am., participated in a Thai Rock Opera, made his film debut, and went on to record 9 albums as a rapper and producer.

Here is a dope Hip Hop Rock fusion video where he collaborates with some fellow Thai rappers - the beat is sickkkkkk!!

Lebanon's take on Alice in Wonderland

Yara - Lebanese pop never looked so good

We love this Lebanese beauty - Yara.

She first gained international recognition as the winner of the TV program “Ka'es El Noujoum” (in English, "Cup of Stars"), an Arabic take on American Idol presented on LBC Lebanon. She went on to gain fame as a pop star in her own right, and toured extensively in Jordan, Syria, Egypt, and the Gulf. She has released 3 albums in 3 different Arabic dialects - Egyptian, Lebanese, and Khaliji. We love that international style!

This video for her song Sokkar Zeyadah is trippy! She is definitely not your standard reality TV competition star. In fact this video is stylistically reminiscent of Kanye's recent musical short film Runaway...don't you agree?

UK dance anthem - Head, Shoulders, Kneez and Toez

This is the week for dance crazes! First we brought you the Jacky Jacky from Sierra Leone, and now it's Head, Shoulders, Kneez and Toez from the UK.

This dance anthem from the group K.I.G. is some more of that UK Funky music that is blowing up over there right now. The BBC calls the song "an embellished nursery rhyme" (basically true) - but the beat is bangin' and this jam stayed at the top of the charts in the UK for a hot minute. There are a ton of DJ remixes and homemade dance videos of the ladies doing their best to "go down low".

Regardless of how infantile the lyrics may be, the video is pretty hilarious. They've got everyone from business men to tribal warriors to midgets to WWF wrestlers gettin' down to this funky beat - and we embrace that kind of universal dancing ;)

Navegante - LIVE tonight in Miami!

Our homeys Navegante are baaaaaaaaaaaack!

Navegante is an electronic duo from Brooklyn, NY. They fuse all kinds of different sounds into their bangin' music, including house, hip hop, electro, and various Latin rhythms and guitars. Frontman Jean Shepherd is a Miami native - hence all those Latino influences in their music. In fact, their debut album is entirely en Español.

Previously on the blog, we shared their MTV3 article, and featured their newest the EP. This time, duo has moved away from the Spanish language, and brings the listener an even deeper, harder electronic sound to keep your feet moving and your heart thumping! You can download it for FREE here.

Tonight, Navegante will be performing with LCD Soundsystem's Nancy Whang at Bardot for their Art Basel kick-off party. It will be the perfect warm-up for our event at the News Lounge tomorrow!!

To get you in the mood, here's the music video for their song Apariencias off their first album...shot at the legendary Camaradas in Spanish Harlem!
