Black Jesus Gabba Gabba

Paul Coro brings us the news this morning that Amare made an appearance on my kids' favorite Nickelodeon show, Yo Gabba Gabba. AZCentral was even good enough to provide video.

EDIT - AZCentral may have video but their players code is written in sanskrit, and as such, will not properly embed. You can view the video by clicking on Coro's link. Sorry for the confusion.

The show airs tomorrow morning at 11:30am on Nick and will feature Mix Master Mike of Beastie Boys fame, Hot Hot Heat, and Mark Mothersbaugh, the creative force behind Devo, doing his “Mark’s Magic Pictures" segment.

As I mentioned, my kids love this show, but I rather enjoy it as well. This is due in part to past musical guests such as The Aquabats (their singer/songwriter actually created the show,) The Aggrolites, and even Alex Desert from Hepcat appearing on the show, but also because it's fun and ridiculous, exactly how a kids show should be.

Glad to see Amare doing something fun for the kids.
