Pete Wentz’s band, Fall Out Boy, for which he is the principal lyricist and bass player, has sold upwards of 5 million albums worldwide. Decadence Records, Wentz’s label, has signed bands like Gym Class Heroes, Panic at the Disco and The Academy Is…, who’ve all turned into massive successes. Clandestine Industries, Wentz’s clothing line and book publishing company, recently opened the flagship location in Wentz’s hometown of Chicago. He’s been busy in his personal life too, marrying his muse, Ashlee Simpson last month. And the two are expecting their first child later this year.

You’d think as a successful musician, entrepreneur and family man, Wentz would want to settle down a little, and soak it all in. Wrong! He’s just gearing-up for his biggest project yet: redefining the way we experience music videos on TV and the Web, as host of MTV’s new show, “FN MTV.”

So we got Wentz on the phone to talk to him about life, music and the next big thing in music video history!

Have you ever stumbled across a song and thought, “damn, this song should be my soundtrack as I walk down the street in my new short shorts”?

Well, if you’re like me, then you HAVE had this thought before. Everyone needs a song that gets them feeling badass. Everyone needs a pulsating, bass-a-rific riff that makes them forget that they’re just driving to the store to get some milk and instead imagine that they’re in an action movie where the opening credits are rolling as they ride down the highway, hair flying and looking hot.

David Guetta (with Chris Willis on vocals) has supplied us with the first perfect badass summer song of the season, Love is Gone. The beat is undeniable, it works on the treadmill as well as on the car stereo, and the music video is kind of weird and awesome.

Congrats. Summer is here.
