Young Butta - Going Shopping (video)

Young Butta - Goin Shoppin Official Video
Aight, so the only one more confused about this video then me, is this ni**a Young Butta. Just look at his face! He looks like a fourth grade crack baby in a linear algebra class. I mean this fool can't even make his mind up about what he wants to do. His boo wakes him up so he can get to clockin but all he can do is dream about thinking about goin shopping. In his dreamstate his boo gives him fashion advice about what to rock to the major gala but Young Butta ain't impressed in the least. He's [...]

No! They Canceled Work It!

I mean, we all knew this day would come. It's just such a shock that it happened so fast (no, it's not, but I need to keep up appearances). ABC, the network that somehow green lit The Worst Show In Television History, has canceled that very same show, just two episodes into its historic first [...]

In Which I Review The Entire 2012 Coachella Lineup (Part 3)

Aw, I can't believe this is the last installment of my Coachella lineup review. This has been a lot of fun. I haven't gotten nearly as many negative comments and e-mails as I thought I would. In fact, it seems like most of you are in agreement. Or at least those who have contacted me [...]

MIX: UKHH99-07 – A UK Hip-Hop Retrospective

Mystro - 2011 Uk Rap Up [OFFICIAL VIDEO]
UKHH99-07 is a mix by Jeej for Jus Like Music on Mixcloud , featuring UK hip-hop tracks which came out between 1999 and 2007. I recently put together a sort of retrospective of UK hip-hop, spanning 1999 to 2007. It was a cathartic experience in a way, as I've not really followed UK hip-hop very closely for a while now. In fact, the clue is in the title; 2007 - that's when I reckon I actively stopped following UK hip-hop. It's hard to pin-point the ... [read more]

In Which I Review The Entire Coachella 2012 Lineup (Part 1)

Since my review of last year's Coachella lineup garnered so many brilliant responses, I would be shirking my duties as an online journalist if I ignored the big announcement that was made this week. Two weekends in April will once again transform the Californian desert into the most unbearable environment on Earth. And, no, I'm [...]

Kanye West's Twitter Rant – Through a 5 Year Old's Eyes

Kanye West's Twitter Rant – Through a 5 Year Old's Eyes So just as Mr. West usually operates, the star announced plans to start a design company with the goal of changing everyone's life. DONDA will be comprised of 22 different divisions, all seeking to improve the human condition in one way or another. Crazyness? Most likely, but Kanye is a professional when it comes to the ridiculous. After his twitter rant, VLAD TV decided to turn the tweets into the drawings of a 5 year old. Check them out in the gallery below as well as Jimmy Kimmel's ad he created for DONDA. "Kanye's twitter rants [...]

The Best of Andy Rooney Volumes 1 & 2: Movies & TV

The Best of Andy Rooney Volumes 1 & 2: Movies & TV The Best of Andy Rooney Volumes 1 & 2: Movies & TV This is kind of bullshit guys, because, let's be honest, you should just do a huge DVD box set that includes EVERY SINGLE ONE of Andy Rooney's curmudgeonly but cute and out-of-touch rants. According to Amazon, "Run Time: 245 minutes". Doesn't that seem like WAY TOO LITTLE ANDY ROONEY?

How I Can Be A Better Feminist

Often I am reminded there is a fine line between satire and insensitivity. Sometimes a friend will nudge me, and sometimes I'll be spoken to in stern tones. Like a child who has knowingly committed a misdeed. Actually it is my mother who usually takes me to task for striving to pass off such exaggerated [...]

Strut Records: Ripping You Off With Laziness

I planned on a best/worst of the year list tonight, but something irked me so bad that I had to push that post back a few days. Last week I bought Fac.Dance, a compilation by Strut Records that features many rare and hard-to-find dance tracks from Factory Records. Many of them are out-of-print and have never seen the light of day either digitally or on CD. I should have loved the record, but Strut had to go and fuck it all up. I bought the album on vinyl in a 2LP set, it is also available as [...]

Excuse Me Miss, Your Pubes Are Showing

Well, well, well. It looks like the ladies at The Frisky aren't the only thing getting fatter this winter. The amount of different bylines is expanding in size as well! I've counted at least three new authors (oh my God, they're terrible) during my most recent scan of The Most Important Women's Periodical On The [...]

Countdown to the Countdowns: The Worst Singles of 2011

yes, it's a matter of taste, but if I didn't have taste I wouldn't be running this blog. So before I count down the best tracks of the year, let's look at a few that I never want to hear again. 1. Pink - F**kin Perfect / Jessie J - Price Tag With her first two albums, Pink was very high on my list of the best pop stars out there. Then she began to repeat herself and water down the music. Perfect , with it's cutesy lyrics and plodding [...]

They Turned My Life Story Into A Book?

About one in every 100 people doesn't care what others think of him. These people are hard to spot. They are usually physically healthy, and their intelligence is often above average. Yet, in the words of one psychiatrist, they lie without compunction, cheat, steal, and casually violate any and all norms of social conduct whenever [...]

The Blog Sound Of 2012

The Blog Sound Of 2012 There's probably nothing that divides and angers music lovers more than a list. So on the day the BBC announces the long list of its 'Sounds of 2012' it seems the music twitterati are already up in arms about who's in and out. What better way then to quell the collective fever than to get a load of blogs to produce a list of what they consider should be 'big' in 2012? It was nice to be asked, but given our USP and general tardiness we're still slightly bemused why we were solicited to contribute to [...]

Bono Still Has AIDS! (On His Mind)

Happy World AIDS Day, everybody! Surely you remember that December 1st is World AIDS Day, right? The omniscient entity that is BONO (you must use all caps to show proper reverence) will not let you forget that today is World AIDS Day. Nor will BONO let you forget that BONO exists. His unending series of [...]

All Apologies

On The Gradual Impossibility of Music Criticism... It first started with this little off post about Demdike Stare... Not exactly a slagging but maybe a kind of shrugging . Now if you look at the (obviously unrepresentative) sample of commentators there's clearly a mini-consensus here which then got me thinking: how come no one else has said that before? ((Where are all the haters?)) Well, one reason is the diminishing circles of the internet, of course and the even more diminshing circles of the [...]

Donal Dineen: 'The Battle Has Been Lost'

Tonight will see the final Small Hours programme take to the air. It's been a mainstay of Today FM for years. But at about 2am tomorrow morning, Donal Dineen will take off his headphones in the studio for the final time, and Irish music will be worse off for it. [Read more]

Blitzen Trapper and Dawes at the Neptune Theater

Poster by For Young Modern (a site doing some gorgeous graphic design along with show reviews) November 11th, 2011, (also known as the luckiest day of the millennium for those of you who believe in making wishes) was a very busy night for Seattle music venues. Wild Flag played Neumos alongside Drew Grow and the Pastor's [...]
