My Favorite Albums of 2011 (And Then Some)
The end of the year is super fun for me, not because of the holidays, but because every self-described music critic, magazine, and music blog releases their Best-Of lists and I get to read them, scoff, and move on. This year, the lists were pretty decent from readable outlets like Stereogum, Pitchfork, Cokemachineglow, etc. Even completely unreadable magazines like Spin had an okay list.
So its...

“Our World” performed by My Morning Jacket.
This is probably the best song from the Muppets tribute album to accompany the new Muppets movie. Although I bet Andrew Bird does a hell of a job too.

Top 5 Hip Hop Songs With Children Singing Choruses
#1 - “Hard Knock Life” by Jay-Z
This song is one of the best rap songs of all time; it’s certainly one of my top 5 favorites. The chorus, although a sample, is just so amazing with the beat and the theme of the song. The video is very simple but draws you in. This song is a fucking classic. Can’t be touched.
#2 - “We Don’t Care” by Kanye West
When I...

I’m a big fan of this song for a number of reasons.
1) its fucking good
2) Pusha T destroys anything he ever touches - one of the best in the past 5 years if you ask me, and
3) I like Tyler the Creator’s verses on this song better than much of his own solo shit.
These two seem like such natural collaborators. Cut from very different cloth but both with ruthless, snarly raps and a...

Pitchfork - Echo Chamber: Andrew Whiteman →
Regarding the “Sweetest Kill” video starring Bijou Phillips:
“I actually haven’t seen the video, but I think that’s bullshit. The literalism of that — it’s like ‘the song is called ‘Sweetest Kill,’ so why don’t we have a hot chick kill her boyfriend?’ Like, what the fuck is that? That’s weak shit, man. Weak shit....

HuffPost: Was Shakespeare a Stoner? →
Admirable question. Could certainly shed some light on some of my favorite crazy scenes, notably Mercutio’s Queen Mab monologue from Romeo and Juliet. Clearly that whole monologue was written after a fat blunt.
I’m full of shit, I’m well aware.
What do you think?

Stereogum's Top 20 of 2011 (So Far) →
Dear Stereogum,
Your list is okay. But just okay. The fact that you did not include My Morning Jacket’s Circuital says to me you may possibly have shit for brains, or you’re just so narcissistically into “avant-garde” albums and anything Pitchfork gives Best New Music, that you can’t possibly appreciate the grandeur of an album that goes far and beyond at least half...

Showtime at the Arcade is now available to download FOR FREE at that link above, in full, complete with album art and pdf digital booklet. Bandcamp offers the album in multiple formats but limits the number of free downloads per month. This is why I will post a link to download the album on mediafire as well, but for now check out the album on Bandcamp because Bandcamp is dope and you...

Recently I started contributing to this site, http://oddfuturetalk.com, because I am pretty bored at work throughout the day. It’s nothing special, just random tidbits and news, the occasional editorial piece, and of course its about anything Odd Future related. Normally I’d avoid such a narrow subject blog but Odd Future has so many different things happening and is such an intriguing...

Record Store Day 2011!
Record Store Day was an huge success for yours truly. Despite getting up at 7am to be at Horizon Records by 7:30 to line up at the door, the whole day was very exciting and it was really like a vinyl Christmas. So I decided to post photos and descriptions of everything - not all of these are RSD exclusives. In fact, a good number of them are older pre-loved records that were basically...
