Video Vixens: Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip - Thou Shalt Always Kill

A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Happily, our newest Video Vixens, Dan le Sac and Scroobius Pip, haven't let their gray matter go to waste. Backed by lots of bleeps and an 80s-esque video game beat, "Thou Shalt Always Kill" is full of dry witticisms and bon mots about music, romance, and just plain old good living. The video takes you on a stroll around London with pasty rapper Scroobius Pip as he spreads his commandments all over the city. Some choice words of wisdom include, "Thou shalt not judge 'Lethal Weapon' by Danny Glover," "Thou shalt not fall in love so easily," and "Thou shalt not read the NME." In a Dylan-esque moment featuring the tossing of many albums, Pip reminds us that the Beatles (and many others) were but mere bands. Words to live by, and also to have a chuckle at. But enough talk. Go have a look for yourself.
