Indigenous Peoples Day has been marked by Portugal. The Man and Weird Al Yankovic via the collaborative track Who’s Gonna Stop Me.
It’s not the first time the two have paired up; Weird Al has previously joined the band onstage at Bonnaroo and remixed two songs, and for this latest hook-up Aaron Brown and Josué Rivas have directed the video.
“For the video for Who’s Gonna Stop Me, we created a collaboration between indigenous artists, friends, artistic collaborators, Weird Al Yankovic, and Indigenous organizations to explore the possibilities of collaboration in this new time,”Portugal. The Man explain.
“To us, Weird Al Yankovic has always been a figure of playful boundary-breaking. His work makes us take less seriously, the things that we take so seriously, like what’s cool, or what’s trendy. Weird Al Yankovic has been an inspiration for Portugal. The Man since their inception until now.”
