MOVITS!

Hailing from Luleå, Sweden, these three nordic gents are smashing together jazz, swing, and hip-hop, and taking the charts by storm. It's a new kind of music, and my only xenophobic complaint is that it ain't in English. Movits! (pronounced Move-Its) debut album, Äppelknyckarjazz, dropped in November 2008, and is making its mark both on Amazon and on iTunes.

Stephen Colbert brought them on his show just a couple of weeks ago, providing a "Colbert Bump" to their popularity.

Don't doubt their rapping abilities just because they look like they're straight out of The Sound of Music. This stuff is dancetastic.

Their motto?

"They say Hip-Hop was born in the Bronx, but the Bronx was born in Sweden."

Press play and get moving.
