El Narcocorrido del Heisenberg: ‘Breaking Bad’ Drug Ballad

Are you watching AMC's Breaking Bad? Wait, start again -- do you watch TV, or are you one of those dirty hippies who doesn't own a TV and/or is too good to watch TV, unless it's crap reality TV you can claim to enjoy ironically? (No point even using scare quotes anymore.) Assuming you do watch TV and enjoy same on the merits, Breaking Bad is a charming black dramedy about a high-school chemistry teacher who, upon learning he has eighteen months to live, starts cooking meth in order to leave behind a nest egg for the fam. Said teacher, when asked his name by particularly objectionable thugs, impulsively gives his street tag as "Heisenberg." Now that's comical in a number of ways; plus, he actually starts to get a rep under the name. Now please stand by for viral marketing injection: "Mexican band" Los Cuates De Sinaloa guitar-o their way through a traditional narco-ballad extolling the virtues and prowess of the mysterious Heisenberg. Video after the jump.
