It’s hot. It’s wet. And it’s not nearly as exciting as that might sound. Let’s jump right into some new kindie music videos before I say something that’ll get me in trouble. Ratboy Jr “High 5 Your Shadow” from Champions of the Universe I FREAKING LOVE THIS SONG!!!! That is all. Watch, listen, smile, dance, enjoy, repeat. (hear “High 5 Your Shadow” on the...
