Never really gave Cudi a chance because people seem to like him more as streetwear mannequin than musician, but this song is awesome.  The MGMT and Ratatat thing made me assume this would be a hypester trainwreck, but the Cud’s left me humbled.

Or maybe I’ve just been desperate for an enabler’s anthem.

Respect for Drake dropped by about 98 points when I saw this. His whole shit was that he wasn’t a sell-out, signing no deals, doing his own thing… Now we learn it wasn’t his thing, it was Sprite’s.  Cool, dude.  What are you gonna tell me next?  Lil Wayne can’t spit unless he got a Snickers in his stomach?

Oh… and AS-FUCKING-IF Drake would be all “Yo, I’m not feelin’ this beat.”  The Forever beat is fucking hard.  I know Sprite made the Lemon-Lime remix for the ad, but even that’s no excuse. Coca-Cola’s marketing team doesn’t know shit about hip-hop. The only greens that Drake should have in that booth is sticky cannabis, not Coke subsidaries.

Best film I’ve seen in a long time.  Americans are really fucking up with their “bad-ass” movies.  The French put out Un Prophete, and all we get is this. Thank god for subtitles.

Slick Rick - Children’s Story

If you aren’t listening to KDAY, you’re fucking up.  This is one of my favs they’ve been playing lately. Slick Rick is a god among men.

I miss making videos. What the fuck am I doing with my life?

payman:

I’m gonna post some old videos since I’m new’ish to Tumblr.  If you haven’t seen them, they’re new to you!  Ehhh?  Thought so.  I directed this one, it was written by/stars my buddy Daveo Mathias, and also stars Mookie Blaiklock.  Ladies and Germans, “A Rapper Talks About His Penis”.

WET.
