Watch and Listen: A new hype track featuring an all-star surf cast sweeps Oahu’s North Shore!

"Pyzel surfboard the swell peakin' at noon!"

Music has been inextricably tied to upping the passions since the beginning of recorded time. The ancient Greeks marched into battle to the deafening beat of drums. The ancient Americans sent fife players out front of militiamen to both inspire and strike fear in British hearts. Napoleon had his favorite composer, Paisiello, write melodies and perform them during decisive campaigns and the modern basketball player will refuse to enter a gymnasium without noise-cancelling, full-ear headphones playing the very latest 6ix9ine track.

And so it only makes sense that Oahu’s North Shore, seven-miles awash in upped passions, has its own.

Kahleo’s There That Boy Go is a modern masterpiece featuring crackling, surf-inspired lyrics, an all-star North Shore cast (the Rothmans, a Florence, Billy Kemper etc.) and enough Pipeline to send shivers up this grown man’s spine.

A sample:

There that boy go, looking back I know there’s much to see.
Aloha vibes, aloha vibes is how I prefer to speak.
Hey haole boy, yeah haole boy, would you like to try some beef?
I just got my lei chilling out on the beach, tryin to eat.
There that boy go, Reef boardshorts, no shirt, no shoes.
There that boy go Pyzel surfboard the swell peaking at noon.

If this is not the best surf song on the planet you tell me which one is and then I will call you a fool.

And I only have one quick question. Is John John’s younger brother Ivan Florence the haole boy that possibly wants to try some beef?

Lemon Next to the Pie

Has Childish Gambino tested the waters on copyright yet?

It was seemingly the young locals’ hit of the year when I was truly getting shit kicked outta me in junior high. I have rather mixed feelings about it.

I like the mockumentary. Flat days on the North Shore can conjure up some crude creativity.

Then again, reminds me of some Dominican merenhouse (meregue-house) bands, like Illegales.

Old Kook

Nice, we are writing some good movies lately. We need to get these going.

Seas Nail

Grown here, not flown here I think you mean.

Owen's Outgoing Tide

yeah, i’ll take him over JJ any day. i enjoy a few songs, but can’t make it through an album. just not happy enough i guess.

Phat-wan kerr

“surfing bird” performed by Peter griffin.

cuttiesandfloaters

If you turn the sound off it looks like a wave of the winter compilation interspersed with some kid having epileptic episodes on various rock formations due to his overly tight pants. With the sound on, it’s the same but you realize the kid also has Tourettes.

Got funny at the end when his lip synch went out of synch.

surfmom

hahahahaha

Dumb Florida Redneck

If I hear this song in central America, it will more or less likely be played by some brazi with triangle tats and zero to no comprehension of lyrics.

Jordy's pout

Wait, what??!!!

What impressed me most about this exceptional audio-visual creation is that most of the names were spelled correctly in the closing credits (yes I watched until the end!)
