‘First World Problems’, A Song About the Slight Inconveniences of Privileged Life by ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic

“Weird Al” Yankovic has released a music video for his song “First World Problems”, a song about the slight inconveniences of a privileged life. “First World Problems” isn’t a direct parody, but it is a homage to the style of songs by The Pixies. The video shows Yankovic dealing with terrible problems like a latte without any foam art.

The song is off Yankovic’s new album, Mandatory Fun, which released on July 15th. The album is currently available via Amazon.

Yankovic spoke with PopCrush about the video.
