Bunnies. Singing Candy Hill’s new single “Juicy.” No hidden revelations, no new indie hip-hop discoveries, no complex essays on the role of public subsidy in a burgeoning global economy… just an R&B single that’ll make you want to move. Sung by rabbits. Well ain’t that just the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!

When the ‘moch steps on the block, all the local dogs stop
Tongues out floppin, tail’s waggin, watchin him walk
Collar so fly all the girl pups say
“Mochi’s the hottest hot dog in all of BK!”
Nobody does it like Mochi does it.
As an Audible Treats fan, you may know Mochi from our website – he’s our resident office guard dog. His charm and good looks have gained him entry into a competition on the Brooklyn Industries website (a local clothing company for those not in the NYC area).
If he wins, they will produce t-shirts with his silhouette that will be available in all of the stores. We will become rich on royalties from his image rights.
Not really, but it would be awesome to see him on a shirt regardless, right?
So if you love Audible Treats and have some extra time, go to the website and leave a comment about him. The dogs with the most comments will then be entered into a runoff vote.
One adoring fan writes:
“Mochi once saved my entire family from a burning building, cured a man of blindness, and built a bridge to the 21st Century…on his cuteness.
Mochi predicted the Iraq War would be a fiasco, and that Jenn and Brad would break up but remain BFF.
Internationally celebrated, he is known simply as “Le Moche” in France, “Il Moche” in Italy, and Mochila among Jewish mothers everywhere.
Mochi is a dreamer who’s livin’ his dream. He encourages you to do the same.”
Top that!

T-Pain’s new video for “Bartender,” featuring Akon, shows the boys doing their thing at a club with a very sexy bartender as the focal point. The song tells the tale of a broken-hearted dude and his crush on a cutie-pie mixologist. “Sometimes, the bartenders are the hottest girls in the club,” T-Pain explains. “Guys are always falling in love with those girls, even if it goes no further than that night. ‘Bartender’ is an anthem for those guys.”
El-P takes on the “clandestine pack of draconian thugs running our country” in an insightful interview with ACLU attorney Ben Wizner. He discusses what “sends a chill down” his “artistic spine” - including his first-hand recollections of 9/11 and the torture at Abu Ghraib.
Disgusted by the American peoples’ numbness to the images of torture at Abu Ghraib, El-P presents this idea out of context from war propaganda. His video for “Smithereens” makes a powerful statement, and explores the idea of the powerful versus the powerless. Which is more shocking - El-P’s take or the real images? You be the judge.
