Lupe Fiasco – What U Want

lupe says to all music blogs, the track isn’t yet finished, but it’s exciting to hear what direction this next record is heading in. sounds like cudder’s got the super lyrical L u p adjusting his steez. soft autotune vocals and whisper flow activate

you could probably include z-trip in the weird looking dj’s/david guetta post

junkfood favorites z-trip and slug team up on a remix of the Dead Weather song “Treat Me Like Your Mother”

delicious music ensues

jamiroquai – virtual insanity

you should probably remember this awesome 90’s music video. from approximately 2 coons ages ago (a coon’s age is a unit of time referring to 4 years). i think it’s worth posting. one particular acid flash back i enjoyed pretending to be Jay Kay, with my goofy fluffy hat violating all universal gravity laws and sliding across the floor while pose dancing.

you might be asking yourself, ‘have they done anything lately?’ they haven’t released a record since we graduated high school (2006) and that was their singles collection. but apparently something is in the works for next year.

regardless, this video is immortal.

*sings song while sliding across the floor opposite the sliding couch*

so long to this cold cold part of the world

pch

the fucking gorgeous PCH. how i wish to drive you and roll in your sands and be swept away by your waves. and witness matthew mcconaughey fight surfer bras. i’ve assembled a mini compilation of thematic songs for all those in a hazy shade of winter seasonal depression. here in bloomington the temperature is in the mid-20’s (farenheit) with clouds and snow flurries day in and day out. the only thing that keeps me going is knowing that somewhere in California, there’s kids legally smoking the best pot in the world, eating In-N-Out Burger and complaining that they have to wear jeans because it’s “only” 72 degrees. one day i’m gonna be one of those kids. god dammit

modest mouse – cold part
van hunt – who will love me in winter
led zeppelin – going to california
bob marley – coming in from the cold
the white stripes – in the cold cold night
doves – snowden
iron and wine – faded from the winter

Spent my days with a woman unkind, Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start, Going To California with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me there’s a girl out there with love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane, never let them tell you that they’re all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey, wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
as the children of the sun began to awake.
