Solange Knowles – Stillness Is The Move

Wow. Check out Beyonce’s kid sister, Solange Knowles, flexing her golden pipes to the Dirty Projectors’ “Stillness is the Move”… she kills it. On top of Dre’s “XXplosive” beat no less. Damn this family has some genes. I know next to nothing about Solange but I feel bad for her…standing in the shadow of BEYONCE. The shadow of her ass alone is enough to keep you in the dark forever. Throw in the fact that she’s one of the biggest stars on the planet and one half of the biggest power couple on the planet (B and Jay are Hollywood’s top earning couple according to ABC news)…  those are some big shoes to fill.

EDIT: revoking “I feel bad for her” …she’s a multi-millionaire dimepiece what the fuck was a thinking?

This is absolutely magnificent. No Mas hired artist James Blagden to animate the story of Dock Ellis’ 1970 no hitter… that he pitched while “high as a Georgia pine” on LSD. Proving that steroids aren’t the ONLY drug in baseball.

Paper Nikes by David Brownings. Just GLUE IT! …I’ll stop now.

Awesome money hats made from the world’s currency.

Jason Segal sings a hilarious song about trying to have sex with a Swell Season fan in LA. He includes his working phone number.
“Remember when I showed my penis in Forgetting Sarah Marshall? Well there were no special effects…”

New video for the title track off The Roots’ new album, How I Got Over, drops October 20th. Directed by BBGUN:

EDIT: Being that we’re on the subject of The Roots here, I was poking around Questlove’s twitter. They were playing on Jimmy Fallon the other night and the Dirty Projectors were there, so they were nice enough to give the Roots a little private session in their dressing room which was caught on tape. Watch it here! It’s well worth your time. We might be seeing them on stage together very soon.

I’m becoming more than a little tired of all these electro-hipster-indie-aggregations that are just doing the same thing again… and again… and then getting their hipster weiners blown by Pitchfork, who in turn convinces all the bros that they’re uber kewl cutting edge pioneers. They currently feature a pile of hot garbage in the Best New Music section (well… i’ll give The Antlers a chance… and I do enjoy the Dirty Projectors and Mos Def’s most recent efforts). On top of this, I’ve heard the PF reviewers don’t even get to grade the albums, they are handed a number and told to write a fitting review… Pitchfork you’ve changed bro… you’ve changed.

“I’ve met all those dudes [at Pitchfork]. Fuck them,” Keller says. “They’re doing well, or at least Ryan. He doesn’t write anything; he just grades all the records. When you review records for Pitchfork, you don’t get to grade them. I was talking to Brett Gurewitz of Bad Religion, who got a good review but only a 3.0 rating. He called the reviewer and said, ‘Hey, thanks for giving my record a good review,’ and the kid said, ‘I got fired for it.’ ”
-Travis Keller, Buddyhead founder, who tells us how he really feels in this LA Weekly article.

This brings me to my point: I’m very excited to go see an original. Hate if you wanna, but Animal Collective really is the coolest thing since sliced bread and blue jeans…or in this case, flannel shirts and chuck T’s.

AnCo is performing this Friday and Saturday, August 14th and 15th in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. Get tickets here and I’ll see you there.

Animal Collective – Daily Routine (Phaseone Remix)

Bonus Travis Keller quote:
“One reason Keller started Buddyhead was because he “didn’t really give a shit about anything on the Internet. People ask me to describe Buddyhead like, ‘Is it like Pitchfork?’ Well, yeah, if we were virgins and bed-wetters. I don’t have Steven Malkmus’ weenie in my mouth. I like Pavement but not that much.””

Mika Miko – I Got A Lot (New New New)

sorry children of the world, Dirty Projectors at the Troubadour is all sold out. so go see Mika Miko at The Smell with Ty Segall, Shark Toys and Charlie & the Moonhearts. especially since they are an “underground youth punk/noise band” according to Wikipedia. you wouldn’t want to miss being underground, would you? (just in case you feel like being underground, but just not tonight, then you can catch them again at the Smell on Friday, July 17th.)
