Christian Audiger is fucking weird…hahah…that’s like the preface….but yeah, he always acts real strange, his body language is weird, he carries himself oddly, and lastly, you know, his biometrics are very repltilian…haha..which I’m sure isn’t surprising…but yeah, this is the cat behind Ed Hardy and the higher end version Chrisitan Audigier, which completely makes sense seeing that all those clothes might as well be little tiny DOR magnets or some shit…go into his Christian Audigier store on Lafayette…the air is weird there…haha…but anyway, his episode of MTV Cribs was on the other day and it was interesting to see his home life, where he lives, how he interacts with his family, and pretty much to check out his ostentatious reptilian lair…now that I think about it, he could be Pleiadian because of his French genes….hahaha…here’s the clip……
Gucci Mane! Gucci Mane! Gucci Mane’s out of jail!!! ….hahaha…yes, one of the illest southern rappers from Georgia, Gucci Mane, has just been released from jail.He was serving a one year sentence for only doing 25 hours of community service of a required 600 hours stemming from a previous gun possession charge…and of course, he’s in the studio that very night…hahah..according to an MTV News article Gucci Mane says he records up to 6 tracks a day (hahaha..wtf!?! ), and that’s why there’s been literally 20 or 30 Gucci Mane mixtapes released since he was locked up.But now he’s out and illlin!!!!…hahaha…but really Gucci Mane is one of those rare artifacts, that like Dali or Duchamp or John Waters would be like ‘omg’…this cat’s straight dada-ed the fuck out like non stop…I’m talking Tate Modern and shizzzz….hahahhahhahh….
And as a real tangential sidenote, via Pitchfork, Gucci Mane was released the same day as that infamous Norwegian black metal cat Varg Vikernes who murdered his Mayhem bandmate…black metal is always the hardest genre hands down (or def. top 5..haha)
After the last few weeks of intense beat crafting, the all new Shaman album “Lil Wayne Is The New GG Allin” is online and streaming for your enjoyment!!! This is an all new instrumental album (one track with vocals) and It’s chock-full of insane old school rave beats, guttural crunk buffets, and a good dose of Lynchian soundscapes.100 copies of the CD are out now, and it’ll be up on itunes for downloads very soon….enjoy!!!!!
The Dream is one of those cats that every time you hear his shit it puts you on a real specific frequency and you’re so immersed in it you can’t even step outside of it to remove yourself from it…hahaha…that being said, his first album Love vs Hate, from 2007, is sooooo sick…it almost created a new standard for the contemporary definition of rnb amalgamations where he took very diverse elements and seamlessly synergized them into 3 minute perfect pop nuggets. His new album Love vs Money just came out on March 10th, and its definitely as good if not better then its predecessor. As you would assume, its non stop singles, I would say at least 8 or 9 potential out of like 13 tracks…hahaha…which proportionally sounds retarded, but this shit’s just craz…oh yeah…and he wrote ‘Umbrella‘ & ‘Single Ladies’ …you might have heard about those tracks….
Taz Arnold is absolutely out of control.He’s been in tons of photos with Kanye West at Paris’ Fashion Week straight stunting the fuck out of shit….hahaha..he’s in the group Sa Ra and he also does clothing collabs with some ill old luxury brand MCM.His style is retardo like 30 years futuristic Japanese shit, which makes it really like 60 years in American standards…Peep this interview in Complex via Kanye’s insanely wtf blog. I have never in my life seen cats stunt like this!!! this is a whole new level of stuntery!!!!…….hahahaha…….
Freestyle Fellowship basically invented a large part of the west coast underground, and Myka 9 is one of the pioneering artists from that group.His new album 1969, out now on Fake Four Inc, which is Ceschi Ramos’s record label, is really an excellent continuation of the west coast hip hop styles that started at The Good Life Café.Myka’s flow, cadence, and content are all impeccable; I really can’t think of a cat on the east coast that can touch the sheer musicalisty and versatility of the numerous different flows he uses on this album. Even if you’re not familar with the diverse styles of the west coast, this album would be a really good introduction. Peep this ill Myka 9 music video for a track from 1969, and while you’re at it, peep the video I did for David Ramos on the same channel…Fake Four Inc got that fire mane!!!!….hahahahh
Dan Deacon’s really awesome, and I was definitely touched watching this four part series on him recording his new album Bromst in the mountains of Montana at the Snow Ghost studio. This is the 2nd part of the documentary where him and his engineer talk about the ridiculously complicated methods they used to record with a player piano (MIDI?!…) Here’s the link to all four parts via Pitchfork TV, and Bromst comes out on March 24th on Carpark. If you’re not familiar with Dan Deacon this album is the perfect introduction to his music…..for reallllss!!!

hahaha…this is so funny…i had to post it…apparently Miley Cyrus had her “people” try to arrange a backstage meeting at the Grammy’s with Radiohead, and Radiohead politely declined..hahaha..which made Miley go “OMG!”…hahhaha…here’s the synopsis via Pitchfork via Stereogum
The gist: Apparently, Radiohead are the only band in the world Miley “would cry over,” and “they’re the reason I love music,” which is shocking enough. (Next thing you know her favorite album turns out to be Amnesiac and she’s doing an acoustic cover of “Like Spinning Plates” in concert.) So when she tried to get her people to pull some strings for an awkward backstage meeting at the Grammys, Radiohead’s crew told Miley’s crew that the band “doesn’t really do that.” Amazing.
This did not sit well with Miley– a girl, I imagine, who doesn’t hear the word “no” too often. “The reason I’m in this business is to make people happy,” she said, suggesting Radiohead are not in it to make people smile. No shit! Radiohead are about making people miserable– beautifully, heart-explodingly miserable! Get it straight, Cyrus!
She said, “I left ’cause I was so upset. I wasn’t going to watch. Stinkin’ Radiohead! I’m gonna ruin them, I’m going to tell everyone.” While it’s possible she was kidding, it’s kinda hard to tell.
The Bad Girls Club is pretty much the illest show.It’s definitely the most abrasive and transgressive of all the reality shows that are done in a similar vein, mostly because there’s no inherent goal present, lots of mentally unstable girls, and tons of alcohol…sooooo….hahahah…but this season (the 3rd one), which proves true of most reality shows, is better then the first two mostly on the level of how concentrated the debauchery is.There was one ep early in the season that blew my mind on the sheer level of how many depraved acts or references were made in the short 45 minute time span.But last week was a good example of the season long culmination of the two rival clicks (The Ambers and the Fabulous Five) and their…hahaha…..numerous energy exchanges.In this ep, and I know this sounds sooo weird, but, they attended the premiere of a new pirate themed porn movie, and as a “reward” the porn star came to their house and told them she was sending them to Cancun for a week ?!?1/….so a lingering beef between the two Ambers and the Fabulous Five escalated to the point where one of the Ambers eventually got jumped by two members of the rival clique, and the episode ends in a…hahaha…mean headlock and mad contusions…but honestly, this is an awesome show just to watch out of context even if you’ve never seen it, just for the pure depravity.Definitely a finely honed artifact, and of course a sister show to The Real World, (they’re both produced by Bunim/Murray) which has definitely turned into alighter version of The Bad Girls Club, especially this season, for realllll!sss……
Hahaha….I never get sick of cool new dances.This is another new dance people are doing called “The Ricky Bobby”, by this cat from Dallas B-Hamp, which is based on Will Ferrell’’s character from that race car movie crrzz Talladega Nights.I think its pretty popular, just not as much as The Stanky Legg…hahaha…but yeah check it out…its really, really, ill…new dances man!!!
This clip is soooo crazy…where did YouTube come from?
Out of the three incarnations of the “The Real Housewives” of wherever, I always liked Orange County the best, but there is a character on the New York edition that’s extra, hahaha, toidy…you know. There’s 2 actually. Count Alexandre de Lesseps, Countess Luann de Lesseps husband, which I just found out like 3 seconds ago, hahaha, according to ‘famegame.com’ (wtf?) “his great-great-great grandfather, Ferdinand de Lesseps, built the Suez Canal and started the Panama Canal, later presenting, for France, the Statue of Liberty to America.”….hahahaha…ohhhhh…it’s like that!…hahhaha..yeah, so of course, that cat is super reptilian, but this other guy is a strange strain of reptile. Simon van Kempen, the Aussie husband of Alex McCord, often looks like he’s going to devour the whole cast…look at this picture of him with his kids…say what?!!…hahaha..I mean obviously, especially on the New York edition, almost everyone on the show is generally reptilian, but these two cats are the straight noteworthy ones….I mean, the Statue of Liberty!??!1/1/!??…hahhahahah…sooooo funny………
Also, check out this really great review of last night’s episode via Gawker
This is mad funny. A few days ago The Flaming Lips won the contest for their song “Do You Realize?” to become Oklahoma’s state song, which is really cool mostly because, you know, its Flaming Lips. So today, on Pitchfork (via Sterogum), there was a story about Wayne Coyne crazy dissing Arcade Fire in an interview he did for Rolling Stone…hahaha…which is really funny, and its cool that both these things happened within a few days of each other, because Flaming Lips aren’t exactly an overly publicized band, at least in non indie circles.
This is the quote:
I’m a fan of them on one level, but on another level I get really tired of their pompousness. We’ve played some shows with them and they really treat people like shit. Whenever I’ve been around them, I’ve found that they not only treated their crew like shit, they treated the audience like shit. They treated everybody in their vicinity like shit. I thought, “Who do they think they are?” I don’t know why people put up with it. I wouldn’t put up with it. I don’t care if it’s Arcade Fire or Brian Eno. If either of them walked into a room and treated people like shit I’d be like, “Fuck you, get outta here.”
People treat Arcade Fire like they’re the greatest thing ever and they get away with it. Those sort of opinions change my view of their music. They have good tunes, but they’re pricks, so fuck ‘em. Who does Arcade Fire think they are? I’ve been around groups. I’ve been around the Edge from U2 and he’s the fucking sweetest guy ever. I was around Justin Timberlake when he was young and he was just a normal, nice, kind person. Anyone can be polite and kind and people who have the privilege and money and attention should understand that. If they don’t, then fuck ‘em.
The Lox is mad cool…they’ve definitely been spitting ill shit for years, and all three have maintained a significant level of hard lyrics over some of the best east coast beats. Even Styles P most recent solo disc has crazy bangers on it, just like his solo disc from 2 years ago, and the new Jada will probably be really quality. This is a really funny interview with the three of them on DJ Enuff’s radio show where they talk about the cats they still listen to, what they think of all the new ‘dance routine’ rappers, and what the fuck are skinny jeans…..mad funny…..
The Real World is one of the craziest reality shows that’s ever been on, both for instigating a model for a genre and how each season presents a new permutation of the old standard. This season is the most culturally progressive..hahaha..with a gay dolphin trainer who looks like some crazy Muppet sorcerer and mad reptilian and a tranny outcast who shows off at every public outing…one of the ill kids is Chet, a Mormon virgin, and a quasi Redenbacher-hipster, who has a an opinion about everything, but is always super misinformed…on tonight’s ep he makes fun of the tranny’s stent in a biblical sense…dawg!!!!….hahhaha…but yeah, The Real World is one of those hyper matrix shows where you can see the filter MTV puts on it, especially when watched in high definition.
Soooo…hahaha..a few weeks ago I mistakenly stumbled apon a song by Brokencyde on someone’s myspace profile. I have no idea what it was about it that made me pursue further, but then I saw the video for the same song, and I think I’ve been fascinated for weeks about the exact genre that this band inhabits: screamo crunk or sometimes referred to as crunkcore…hahaha…so, as a major purveyor of all things southern rap, and I definitely enjoy a good Animal Collective or Pantera yelp, I found this new micro-niche genre very strange and a little off putting. These are some of the different bands in the crunk core scene or ‘however that sentence is supposed to make sense. Dot Dot Curve is the one cat that’s pretty ill…his shit is like screamo mixed with T Pain, kind of like the Florida trance n’ b stuff, mixed with a little Atari Teenage Riot isms, and a very astute sense for pop hooks, which is a cool combination when it pans out well. Both Brokencyde and Dot Dot Curve also fit into the Myspacecore echelon, which is basically for bands whose sole fanbase and popularity is due to their presence on Myspace…but Dot Dot Dot Curve gets thousands and thousands of plays a day, so that’s cool in the fact that its very experimental music, packaged up snug for a Hot Topic demo, soo…hahahah….but the Brokencyde video I absolutely cannot vouge for and I’m pretty sure it has a some crazy reptilian filter on it, so watch with the same caution you would give any Fox reality show, a similar filter steeze, you know…..hahaha….
Sooo…my friend took a promotional poster for this musician from Starbucks and it ended up to be Keyboard Cathy…and Keyboard Cathy actually has some songs about sushi and sashimi and peanut butter….hahaha…and you have to check out this music video for ‘Sashimi’, which I guess is her sequel to sushi?, I’m not sure which came first…um….hahaha…yeah, but she is far and beyond probably invented by Tim and Eric…sooo, enjoy!!!!
This shit is so ill. It’s a new dance / song by these cats out of Dallas, which is similar to Houston hip hop, but on a slightly different tangent. It kind of looks like when you put a cigarette out with your foot but extra gimpy… Cats keep coming up with the most awesome new ways to dance and its absolutely mindblowing. Plus they have ATVs in the gym, but I’m not sure if the doors are wide enough, so that was weird. There’s tons of people doing the dance on YouTube too, check for those videos…..sooooo dope….
This is a cool interview with the G Spot Boyz about the origins of the Stanky Legg dance…yeaaahhhh!!
Seven New York is a really sick store in Soho that carries some of the craziest and most avant garde designers in Europe. Cats like Bernard Wilhelm, Romain Kremer, Jeremy Scott, Gareth Pugh, Cassette Playa and lots of other real ill cats. There’s this Bernard Wilhelm coat at the store that’s like a big pillowcase you fold yourself into…sooo craz…They have their whole inventory online and they’re also at 110 Mercer Street in Soho…Here’s some crazy pics of the type of the ish they carry.
So Degrassi has the crown for the most transgressive postmodern meta abstract high school drama of all time, right…?…and this season is definitely no different. Just last week some gay football player tried to turn straight by taking steroids (which i think is a first for modern-day dramas), and this week, the principal curses at some nerdy girl, a Canadian Indian Muslim brings his white girlfriend home, while another kid gets diagnosed with Aspergers and bugs out. Here’s the 2nd part of the episode; there’s an ill flipping out scene right in the beginning…Degrassi never ceases to amaze with their infinite cultural permutations and endless debauchery……
