Jesus on the mic everybody.
good band here. kind of cheesy but good. cheesy like the cheese you get in europe. but this aint no euro cheese. this stinkin festerfest was made in the UselesSofA (clever word play again. aight)
Nothing More
I thought these guys where english. they have a rather quaint way about them which suggests rolling hills and country pubs.
but they're from Texas.
now they suddenly sound like Paramore. which is not a good thing. even worse, they sound like a christian band.
so. if they can somehow, get UK citizenship I think it would do them a great deal of good. that or declare their allegiance to the dark one.
alt-J.
click on the song and be enlightened as to why this is today's pick.
true inheritors of 'the sound' produced on that little island over the past 60 years.
Lil Boosie
Just because. He has been around a fair while, recently got out of prison and is back doing what he does.
As far as I'm concerned he is amongst the most interesting artists of the past decade or so. He is the real deal, and by that I just mean that when he raps he is communicating - when you listen to one of his songs - he is invoked and what you get is a very real, present, intimate testimony. In other words, he pours himself into his music so that when you listen to it, you are in touch with a real person.
And if that's not success - beyond other types of success - then the word is meaningless.
Reiterating - it has less to do with content than with testimony - less to do with worldly truth than art in the most sincere sense - stripped down, raw, powerful, lucid.
Cut from different stuff than most. So what he has to offer is pretty unique. And I like that very much.
