In my email today, I got one of the funniest videos/songs I’ve seen/heard in some time. I only hope that it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek and I’m not having a good time at someone else’s expense. Not that that’s ever stopped me before. I don’t post a lot of videos here, but LMFAO does not have an album out, and most of their music seems to be limited to a couple of mixtapes. I really do not know much at all about this duo, other than they’re from California and earlier this year they had a blog-o-rific song called “Yes.” LMFAO’s latest(?) is a tribute to my local area, appropriately titled “I’m in Miami Bitch.” If you feel the need to buy this or any other LMFAO music, head over to their MySpace, where there are a small handful of tracks available for purchase. You can also pick up your official LMFAO gear there. Check out this video, which I hear was temporarily “banned” from YouTube. Make sure you stick around for the last few seconds after the song stops. It’s worth the price of admission.

The operator of hip-hop social network Urbmob.com confirms that it has raised $1.5 million in funding from venture investors including Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Grosvenor Funds and New Atlantic Ventures (formerly Draper Atlantic). MBeat Media Inc., the company behind Urbmob and a related record label, is already raising a Series B round worth $4 million to $5 million, general manager Robert Delamar says. The news about its A round was first reported in The Washington Post. Incorporated just two months ago, Urbmob operates a subscription service in which customers receive unlimited ringtone and wallpaper downloads for a monthly fee of $3.99. The site’s TalentRank system rewards the most popular artists, who receive a share of subscription revenues; at least one rapper has received more than $1,500 to date. In addition to hip-hop music, the site caters to fans of top “urban models,” featured in the wallpapers section. MBeat also is planning tie-ins with other relevant areas of the hip-hop lifestyle arena, including fashion, basketball and comedy. “We think the future of music is on mobile devices,” Delamar says, “and ringtones are the easiest way to distribute music on mobile devices.” He adds that roughly half mBeat’s subscription revenues go to carriers, a quarter goes to a financial pool used to reward artists, and the remaining money lands in the company’s coffers. MBeat projects that the Series B round will deliver positive cash flow by 2009. - Paul Bonanos See April 28 article on mBeat’s funding from The Washington Post
