Summer jams 2010

[Vitamin X]

Jamie Foxx ft Justin Timberlake & T.I. - Winner

Have they used this song in NBA promos yet? Either way, I like it.

 

[Brooklyn Zoo]

It is TNT's playoff song.

 

[KOAB]

Travie McCoy: Billionaire [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

Just letting you guys know what you're about to hear on the radio every hour for the next six months.

Holy shit that guy singing... I used to see him like every Sunday or Tuesday night playing at the beach under the pier. I miss watching him perfect his guitar playing while smoking a blunt.

 

[Byron The Bulb]

I'm not really feeling that Jamie Foxx/JT/T.I. song. It's weirdly disjointed.

Yeah, I'd let Katy Perry melt my popsicle 8)

 

[Byron The Bulb]

I have to change the station when that song comes on it's so bad.

 

[BurningPirateShipSex]

I have to change the station when that song comes on it's so bad.

I read that it's an answer song to "Empire State of Mind". Why the correct answer to an over-rated, over-played song is to create the electro-pop equivalent of a bowel movement (featuring Snoop, who will be a featured guest on my CD consisting of nothing but farts and the sound my balls make when I scratch them) escapes even the most spirited of arguments I can muster.

Rick Ross ft. Ne-Yo - Super High (With Lyrics)

Whoever would have thought that fuckin' Rick Ross would be the dude keeping the chopped soul aesthetic alive on mainstream radio in the year 2010. There probably isn't a rapper in recent memory who has improved so much from a purely technical standpoint in such a short period than Ross. Nigga went from rhyming "twenty-two" with itself for 10 straight bars on his debut single to displaying something resembling a nimble flow in just three short years. And yet, I can't help feeling that something has been lost in the transition. There's was something genuinely charming about the totally unselfconscious way he used to lunkheadedly stomp all over beats while paying no heed to trivial concerns like cadence or rhythm or originality. That charm is mostly absent here and in its place is bland workmanlike rapping. A shame.

[Incandenza]

The whole album really, but "Florida University" brightens my life, and, as such, my summer.

 

[Byron The Bulb]

I remember the first time I saw 'Shawty is a 10' on 106 & Park three years ago and me and my roommate were like, who the fuck is this asshole? And now he's getting 8.6s from pitchfork and being compared to Prince and shit. Pop music is weird.

 

[still fly]

yg toot it and boot it

This is played 24/7 on Los Angeles urban radio. Although it's a year old already.

I decided that at age 24, I'm a grumpy old man. I don't get jerking. And I don't want to. What the fuck happened to good ol-fashioned c-walking?!

I think the Prince comparisons are pretty lazy and built by the people who make them largely on an unfamiliarity with 80s R & B.

Still summer, right?

F**K YOU

This song is glorious.
