What goes better than some sushi and Japanese cuisine that a Kirin Ichiban? Well, maybe some sake. But beer-wise there might not be a better combo.
So those whacky Bottle Boys, the guys who played "Billie Jean" in a church, teamed up with some Japanese chefs to combine beer bottle music with the sounds of Japanese cuisine preparation. It certainly creates a unique orchestra like never before.
Anyone who's seen Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake's "History of Rap" sketches knows that it's enjoyable to see mashups of iconic hip-hop songs. But what about when that mashup is being performed by a bunch of Danish guys playing the songs with bottles? Witness the the Bottle Boys. Using only beer bottles, they created a mashup of hip hop classics, ranging from Kurtis Blow's "The Breaks" to Kanye West's "Through the Wire." (Full track list is below) It is as weird as you would expect.

You may have heard rapper Rick Ross refer to his crew as the Black Bottle Boys because of their fondness for Belaire rose chapagne, which comes in a dark bottle. But even Rick Ross would have to say "Ruh!" if he saw what another group calling itself the Bottle Boys can do. Playing an assortment of empty bottles, the group of lovable weirdos have done renditions of "Push It," "Me So Horny," and "The Real Slim Shady." Now they're back with a version of Michael Jackson's classic "Billie Jean." This is the best way to start your day.
