"Their latest studio album, 2012′s Battle Born, is (despite what other Stereogum writers have argued) so offensively corny and not-catchy and just a complete dud that I couldn’t find a single song on it to include in this Top 10 list."
Yeah, well, that's just like, your opinion, man.
No one else has, so let me be the first: Marry Christmas Mutha' Fuckas!!!!!!

Yes, perhaps "hype" was not the right word to use, but It was 1AM, I had just gotten back from a Christmas party and was pretty hammered, what do you want from me?
"Beyonce's fifth studio endevor is a provocative, unguarded artistic statement - revealing a side of the icon previously unknown to fans and cementing her status as a pop visonary." From Itunes.
What a bunch of hype bullshit. But damn, it actually is pretty good.
It is sort of amazing that at no point during the construction of the song or commercial did the people at GoldieBlox say, "Hey, maybe we should make sure the Beastie Boys are okay with this."
Jay-Z is really only the face on the package with Cano and being a sports agent. CAA was doing all the work in those negotiations. Mixed bag as far as success. Guy made 240 mil, but he had to move to the corner of the country to do it, won't haul in nearly as much in endorsements, and will struggle to be relevant the latter half of that 10 year deal.
Im confused. It sounds like he's only going to be really committed to this for 22 days, then he's gonna only keep doing it if it's easy. Which would mean there is a very real possibility that he is going to shit all over his friends theory when he has a big mac after 30 days.
Too bad, but I'd rather them go out on a high note than release crappy record after crappy record and me gradually not care anymore (looking at you Weezer).
Ew man, bummer. Fingers crossed they can find some good chemistry with someone. Really dug their new EP. Advancing years hurt a lot of acts, hopefully they can work it out.
