Just heard this on Sirius XM on my way home in the new whip and I was reminded at how much I love this record. Sexy and utterly hilarious at the same time. 1:52 – 2:16 FTMFW. #loftmusic
At first, I had absolutely no desire to see Dinner For Schmucks, but I must say, the commercials and the newest installment of BtF has me second guessing that. I need to see Inception first though…perhaps tonight.
On last week’s SNSS, we started talking about our favorite MC’s of all time and my answer for the last decade plus has always been the late, great Big L. I did mention that there might be another artist overtaking L in my personal list, and I think it’s actually already happened. Kanye is hands down my favorite artist of all time, throughout any genre. The music has been dope from day one and the man is absolutely hilarious with everything he does. If you haven’t seen Aziz Ansari’s bit about ‘Ye, he nails it perfectly. Dude is just so excited about everything, it’s comedy.
With the new album finished (and no longer called Good Ass Job), ‘Ye has started making the rounds to media outlets to get the buzz going. While the above trip to the Rolling Stone office was great, the highlight of the week has clearly been his entry to the Twitterverse. You have to follow this dude…it’s incredible. Peep it – @kanyewest.
Be prepared for a lot of Kanye talk on TAOD. You’ve been warned.
This is off Type’s Amateur Hour album and was directed by Griff J and Craig Packard, who are consistently dropping some dope visuals for a bunch of Seattle artists. Should be fun to see what they do in 2010.
Type (aka, Jeff from my middle school days) is about to drop the video for his newest batch of hilarity, “Man Crush,” but before it’s released at the end of the month, he’s releasing this teaser. Peep the video to see reactions from some of the dopest folks around town, including yours truly, as we watch the clip for the first time. It’s so wrong, it’s right.
And if you’ve never seen it, here’s the video for Type & Grieves’ “My Girlfriend Beats Me” from a few years back. I make another cameo in this one too hahah:
This happened a few days ago, but I missed it live and just spotted it on the net. Absolutely brilliant. There are a ton of classic quotes in here but I really like that line about the Presidency being run like a radio station contest. I agree completely.
The only part my animal activist self would have changed was the Palin hunting joke about “why is Michael Vick in jail?” I think hunting for sport should be illegal (it’s…pointless), so I’d welcome anyone who kills some animal for fun going to jail. I thought the Bible said “thou shall not kill.” Did they change it when I wasn’t looking and add “…humans?” Anyway, part two below:
