What are you on about? This was back when Little Britain, Ali G, Bo Selecta and Catherine Tate were all hugely popular for taking mick out of chavs. Devvo is definitely funny and original but it didn't "pioneer a style".

Say what you want but Devo was way ahead of his time and I reckon if social media was the way it is now he would have been a national celebrity if not global. Everyone knew Devo for years back in the day and all we had was infrared and Bluetooth to send his videos around but yet everyone had them, I bet most youtube stars now couldn't have managed that 👊

At Nozstock festival 2012 Devvo was performing and making one of his videos around the campsite, and he stuck his head in to my tent as if he was robbing it while I was at the absolute height of an acid trip, I honestly don't think I'll ever have a weirder experience in my life

The footbridge he's shouting at cars from is over Clive Sullivan Way in Hull

The field he's playing football on and talking about his Alan Shearer bong, that's at the end of Hutt St in Hull. David Firth is from Hull, they both lived in Hull while it was being filmed. Both of them are friends of friends. I'm not wrong about this The park he's shouting at ducks and going on the mini roundabout, that's pearson park on princes ave in Hull.

(show us yer' muff!) Kestrel super, i got ma' new car, suped it up wi' 4 fuckin' spoilers, 12 inch alloy wheels, mpfreels, you know the deals, it were parked up next to a Rover, i walked over, POP goes the window, in goes me' hands, pulled out the tape player, off to me nans, off to me nans! Knickin' all the kitkats, cheese and wee, police come a-knockin' and ya' dont see me, ('oo's that!) do another sentence, have a cup of tea, spark up a benson, have another THREE, have another E, right after me' tea, i am fucked and you dont see me, moving in the shadows, (shadows) moving in the shadows, (like lone ranger) Summer is ere' an' its fuckin' fuckin' buzzin', half a can of Kestrel an' i kick me' girlfriend's head in, i'm only messin when i'm 'angin out wif' Bezzin, listen to what im sezzin', all the girls are lezzin'.
