Every once in awhile you hear a song that's just plain old epic. A Reflection On Fire by the band Junius is an example of such a song. When this came on my phone on shuffle last night I was genuinely confused as to why I hadn't already posted it. Insane amounts of energy and dopeness going on here. Check it out in all of its awesomeness:
Whenever you discover or hear about a musical new artist or group there's usually a song or video you come across that solidifies them as a legit newcomer. Over the last week, and much urging from Sterling and Modi, I finally decided to check out the LiveLoveASAP tape from ASAP Rocky--which is not so surprisingly dope. Outside the obvious choice of Purple Swag, the song on the tape that actually stuck out to me as extra dope was the very last song, Out of This World. I'm not sure if it's the multiple Jay-Z and Kanye references or the J.Cole-ish flow, but I can't stop playing this joint. Don't believe me? Go ahead and check it out. And while you're at it, you might as well go ahead and download the entire mixtape. It's definitely worth a listen.
Plus, you should probably give the Drake album a rest for a couple days. Yea, I'm talkin to you Torrance.
I've been looking forward to November 5th for quite some time. And for very good reason. We finally have the LSU/Bama showdown that we've been waiting for. It goes without saying that we hate each other literally every time we play but a #1 vs. #2 match-up only fuels the fire.
In addition the Game of the Year, we also have Party of all Parties: N*ggas In Paris [A Birthday Celebration]. Fresh off the DC leg of the Watch the Throne Tour [pictures coming soon], we have a Parisian-themed birthday party for my good friend Victoria and myself. Oh man, it's gonna be a hell of a day.
Oh yea, about the game. I'm looking forward to a surprisingly dominant Tigers victory. Can't wait to see my Bama fan friends and hit em with the:
Again, I'll attribute lateness due to my recent lack of consistent posting. This movie, Chronicle looks doper than dope. It's the story of a group of high school friends that gain superpowers after making a mysterious discovery. I'm mad excited even though the movie doesn't come out until....February 3rd. Peep the trailer and try not to get hype.
Coldplay released a new album, entitled Mylo Xyloto, and
Tyler, the Creator finally got to perform with BADBADNOTGOOD
This is good, real good, Florida Evans.
This is the same BADBADNOTGOOD [aka Odd Trio that performed jazz renditions of some of our favorite Odd Future joints a few months back. From the video and tweets, this was Tyler's first time being involved in a trill ass jam session.
Even though it's been almost a solid year since Kid Cudi released Man on the Moon II, he's not done putting out videos for it. And by videos, I mean crazy ass murderous videos. This video [kinda] for Maniac, my favorite song off the album, is pretty gruesome and definitely draws some major influence from the Stress video from Justice. Check it out:
