Devendra Banhart meets a barefoot skater and the gimp of his dreams

Posted on April 28, 2010 by Kris Nelson

If you like Devendra Banhart (and why wouldn’t you? The dude’s awesome), you’ll love him after viewing his latest video for ‘Foolin”. Love him like a big black gimp? Maaaybe.

If you’re at work or have to otherwise be discreet, watch ‘Baby’… that one only has a Fantastic Planet-esque cartoon suppository spaceship segue into a GZA cameo. (Andrew vanWyngarden and Fabrizio Moretti appear at the spontaneous thinspo party, too)

Okay, but the last video is completely safe; just a “zodiac boofing” hippie skating barefoot at the end. Just don’t try it at home, kids.

This is the Devendra I loved (but I love his new sound, too):
