I don't think its as bad as some comments have made it out to be, but its certainly not very good. Bloc Party shouldn't be a thing unless its Kele, Russell, Gordon and Matt.
This must have been one of those things where they paid him the money to do a "DJ set" and they just assumed that he would go above and beyond that.
Nelly's next hit song: #squadgoals (feat. Taylor Swift)
I can see why they would think that considering Thomas Morton is basically the whitest looking white person to ever white person, but the guy is genuinely good at what he does and every time he goes anywhere he goes with an open mind, he asks lots of questions, even about things he likely already knows about, to get the words right out of the subjects' mouths. Not to mention the guy has been to some pretty insane war zones and what not lol
Seriously though, "Keep You On My Side" sounds like a mid 80's Rush song if you replaced Neil Peart with a drum machine.
Anyone else getting a heavy mid-80's Rush vibe from "Keep You On My Side"?
Something very different but the new Kwabs album is pretty good pop album. Would especially recommend "Layback".
I've seen so many people talking about the Miley/Nicki thing and I'm so confused? Can these people not see Nicki's big ass smile right before the camera cuts to Miley on her stage? I thought Nicki was serious for about the 2 seconds before I saw the smile. So obviously manufactured.
But can we talk about the new Foals album though?
The fact that there was no Maiden or Rush on that list completely invalidates it for me.
Easily some of the best stuff they've put out. Excited for their album. I thought The Cellar Door was a bit of an underrated debut from them too but this sounds far better already.
I thought his tape from last year, Black Hystori Project, was actually pretty damn good. Had some interesting beats and some really nice rapping on it. But for some reason it never released in anything higher quality than 128 kbps and nothing from it really got much attention.
The Phantom Menace better than Return of the Jedi? Now THIS is podracing.
I promise you Kendrick isn't going to win a fucking VMA for "Alright" lol. He's probably the least likely to win it.
The best part is they LOVE Ted Nuget. The same Ted Nugent that talked about wanting to stick a gun down Hillary's mouth.
Haha I'm good thanks though
At first I saw the Chelsea jersey and rolled my eyes. Then I saw it was a Kurt Zouma shirt. Now maybe Makonnen just saw that name online and thought the name looked and sounded cool on a jersey, but I'm gonna guess that he at least watches soccer. At least enough to be aware of Kurt Zouma.
This post has led me to revisit Aha Shake Heartbreak, a favorite of mine but an album I haven't listened to in years. What a fucking album.
"This is not about me" Oh come off it Taylor.
This is great. Popcaan is great.
I don't see this at all. The guys in Foals don't seem to share the dance obsession that has been guiding Kele for years. Yeah I know Four was all over the place and had its fair share of scuzzy stuff mixed in with dancey stuff and shiny production on a couple tracks but Foals has never really gone two footed into the dance thing. I know "My Number" is really catchy and pretty poppy honestly, but it doesn't come anywhere close to the unabashed electronic sound on Bloc Party songs like "Flux" or "Mercury". I think they're both great bands and I think they started out similarly, but I don't think their paths are particularly similar.
Well I think we can certainly say Meth rapped better than French fucking Montana on this beat.
"rare mp3-collector" Wow Stephen is just like me.
Not as metal as my boy Enrique though. Speaking of Enrique, he could totally play a dude from Dorne.
I NEED MORE EARS TO LISTEN TO ALL OF THIS MUSIC AT ONCE
Something is seriously wrong if this doesn't get AotW next week.
Can we just mention how good Danger Mouse's production contributions are on here? Didn't see these kind of bangers coming out of him.
When did Stereogum become a support group for Jimmy Fallon Haters?
Pitchfork seemed to enjoy it to, gave it an 8.1
"Do it got anything to do with skiing?"
Was disappointed not to see a mention of Kids These Days, Vic Mensa's former band, which featured a lot of members that now make up The Social Experiment that is working with Chance.
"Rain for Sleep" is a great song but I much prefer Rain Sounds' earlier work, most notably "Rain for Fucking".
