Kirkland resident Abel Acuña '11 and Pforzheimer's Johnathan M. Brugal '10 may be stealing some of the limelight from Harvard Hooligans. The duo's first foray into YouTube notoriety consists of a single one-minute music video. In the film, called "Harvard Bros", the two traipse around some of Harvard's most austere icons, singing about genitalia.
"Harvard Bros" is evidently a Crimson-themed cover of a viral hit from self-described filmmaker/comedians The Lonely Island, "Bing Bong Brothers". How does the Harvard set stack up? Check out the video after the jump (WARNING: Explicit language!)
Acuña and Brugal are both board members of the recently-formed Harvardwood Undergraduate Student Organization. According to Acuña, the video is part of an attempt to fill an artistic niche on campus. "We decided that Harvard needed more of a video and film presence, and we decided to spearhead that ourselves," says Acuña. Brugal adds that the video is a spoof on "stereotypical 'Harvard bros' walking around campus".
Though the first installment of this collaboration is a cover, The two undergrads plan to post more original content under Acuña's YouTube account, SeniorSpring. "Keep on the lookout for more films," says Acuña.
