If the funny lookin dude in the picture looks familiar, that's Erlend Øye of Kings of Convenience; The Whitest Boy Alive is another project of his. I started out this post thinking I would write about who really is the whitest boy alive. So over the last hour I've been doing my research - youtubing "whitest rapper", googling every term out there, even reading up on Danny Tanner... So who really is the whitest boy alive? If he was real, I'd go with Powder, you know, in a more metaphysical sense. However, Erlend Øye really does take the cake. Watch him dance in a Kings of Convenience video and you'll agree he's no poser.
