Video: Gangnam Style Becomes Hobba Egyptian Style


I know the always funny people of Egypt will have to answer the global hit Gangnam stile with their own style and brad of comedy. This time some dudes figures out a funny way to PSY got nothing that Egyptians do not have. This is a hilarious take on the elite lifestyle of Egypt: Sushi,  Jazz, Facebook Twitter and laptops. Shoes, and what's not. The song mocks Egyptians talking in English to show they got culture 

If you have visited Egypt or lived there for some time, you will understand what this song is funny. I like the voice over affects. Street food and country salad, this is a big project where tens of young people were involved in making it. The video serves as social commentary on what's bugging people in Cairo today.

This might be a late video joining in the joke, but in Egypt things take some time to register. There are too many random elements glued together for this clip--guy with watermelon.
