Tha Dogg Pound: Let’s Play House
There’s a danger in revisiting a song you loved when you were 14. This song serves as my example. 15 years later this song is 100% less fun and 1,000,000% more creepy and weird. Now that I know things like sex offending exists, I no longer question why sampling children’s songs didn’t really take off.
Method Man and Redman: A-YO
Fun fact, that beautiful blond Pit Bull the Dog Whisper (was) always using as his training model - that’s Redman’s dog. The dog’s name is Daddy.
Blackalicious: Alphabet Acrobatics
Watch the news on mute. This is better - tempo shifts make me fall in LOVE. Not the official video, but aesthetically pleasing for sure.
Moe Pope + Headnodic + Björk = Danger Björk
This is the only form of Björk I will listen to. This entire album is killer, they ever so flawlessly incorporate her over their beats. The emphasis on the scratching in this particular song, however, sounds too digital, makes me question its authenticity. Regardless, this song and album are bombest. If you don’t like the Björk bit listen to their album Megaphone, it has a crisper sound and deeper beat than these tracks.
Murs: The Science
One of the best shows I ever been to. Also, my last show in Boston. Murs for President.
Wu-Tang Clan: M-E-T-H-O-D Man
I still want a Wu-Tang 40.
Dizraeli: Take Me Dancing
Double post today because I love this song that much.
Mac Lethal: Pound That Beer
Something Evan said this morning made me think this would make the perfect anthem for the royal wedding. But it won’t be - only in my world.
Sage Francis, B-Dolan, Prolyphic: SFR Pays Dues
This will be my summer jam.
