GooGoo 4 GaGa







So I hit up the Lady Gaga show last night at The Fine Line Music Cafe in downtown Minneapolis... This girl is sooooooooo dope! She definitely put on a show. Her outfits are outrageous, she's super sexy, very provacative, and she can SING (watch that Poker Face performance)! She's what my guys and I call "serious business." I'm not really a fan of super pop music but there's something about this young lady... She definitely earned more cool points when she came out dancing to Cudi's Day n Nite! SIDE NOTE: I finally heard Day n Nite on the radio the other day, tombout it was "New"- Booooo! You're 6 months late idiots! Anyhoozle, check out the videos below- Enjoy:

Foreign Exchange
















This is for the lovers... Lovers of that good stuff. I'm talking about the good stuff that doesnt make it to radio (ie: Moment of Truth by GangStarr).... This is the album for you. I will admit, I never really listened to Little Brother. I heard a few of their joints but never got into them. Maybe I would if I gave them a real chance.

Anyway, one of the members, Phonte started chatting with some random guy (Nicolay) from the Netherlands on a forum at OkayPlayer.com... They started trading instrumental tracks and vocals back and forth through something like AOL/AIM until they had an album. Craaaazy right?!!??? They hadnt even met face to face but it turned out to be super dope!

So, Leave It All Behind is their sophomore effort and its another BANGER! Poeple are so stuck on the voicebox era that they forget how good music really can be. Im sick of the radio- I dont even listen anymore. Someone told me the other day, they heard Day n' Nite by Kid Cudi on the radio... Wow!! Im happy for the Cudder but cmon now, me and my people been bangin that joint since like August 2008!

Okay, let me stop rambling and encourage you to check out their new album. Its like mellow jazz type R&B mixed with house music to these low key, yet rich backdrops. The featured artsists are more soulful than Phonte, who sings through most of the album- but it definitely works. A welcome change form mundane wackness you hear on the radio and see on the video channels.
