Just some artists/videos/songs that you might want to check out:
The Knux "Bang Bang"
Feeling these N'awlins boys. Not what I expected, which is always refreshing.
Kings of Leon "Use Somebody"
By far, one of the best songs on "Only By The Night." I love that it starts out seeming broad and impersonal, but you eventually realize he's singing about one person in particular. I love him.
Jim Jones f. Ron Browz and Juelz Santana "Pop Champaign"
A friend sent me this record a few months ago when it still belonged to Ron Brownz, asking what I thought about it. I wrote back "Superstars, no Lupe" - it was clearly catchy, but I need more than that these days. I'd call Jimmy "Deebo" for making the track his own, but we already knew that's how he rolls.
All American Rejects "Gives You Hell"
Not a fan of the band's generic sound, but the lead singer is cute as a button, and the song is so hilariously bitter and anthemic, that I had to post it.
Keyshia Cole f. Tupac "Playa Cardz Right"
Keyshia and Pac sound perfect together. Too bad they had to go and ruin the song by spelling the title stupidly!
Matt & Kim "Daylight"
A dude at work directed this video. The treatment is beyond creative...
Q-Tip "Move"
Q-Tip proves that at almost 40-years old, he can still look flyer than most of these industry guys. Even if he is biting Michael. Pause.
And just as a bonus, my new fave band Friendly Fires covered
Lykke Li's "I'm Good, I'm Gone."
After touring together for months, I'm glad they got some kind of gem from her!
Listen to the song HERE.
