Vampire Weekend & The Black Keys battle

In case you didn’t know, Stephen Colbert won a Grammy last year for “Best Comedy Album”. That means he’s eligible to vote in this year’s Grammys, and on last night’s episode of “The Colbert Report”, he brought on Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig and the Black Keys (yes, both of them) to clash over who should get his vote for Best Alternative Album.

Since “nobody pays for music anymore,” the two indie figures battled over who got their songs in the most commercials. You can watch the clip below to see how it turned out (that kind of awesome screencap above should give you a clue). All in all, the whole thing was a lot funnier than anything on the Grammys will probably be this year.
