yo gabba gabba!

thanks to fly, one of my very favorite blogs, i've found out about this amazing soon-to be-released children's program called yo gabba gabba!, which features funky funny catchy choons, djs, boomboxes and dancing, along with a cabal of riotously colored characters doing their thing, all to teach, inspire and entertain kids. apparently biz markie and julius the monkey (from paul frank!) make guest appearances! the dopeness of the biz being a part of this in some way leaves me nearly, happy speechless! check it out:
