“Style Idol: Amanda Blank”

I already liked the girl, but this article gave me one more reason to like her— she’s a white girl who wraps her hair!!!  Haha.

Peace.

All of Kanye’s new stuff has been banned from my listening devices.  808s and heartbreak breaks my heart (and hurts my ears) to listen to, but I feel no hesitation posting about these custom AF1s inspired by the 808s + Heartbreak artwork and Kanye’s “geek chic” attire.

Sneaker customizers MACHE and emmanueLabor created the ultimate in sneaker art.  From the houndstooth plaid, to the Kaws artwork featured on the album, these Forces are fresh.  (Even note the heart on the tongue.)

Props to HighSnobiety.

Tonight on SNL (a show I haven’t really watched since high school), Andy Samberg’s newest “music video” aired. With each one he gets better and better.

This song “Jizz in My Pants” was all about…well, the title’s fairly transparent. It’s “Dick in a Box” but about two times better.

Hopefully a link and lyrics to come….haha.

Peace.

UPDATE (12/15/2008): VIDEO!!

You know what’s even better than the fact that this song is just wrong (in all the right ways)?

Answer–The lasers, the DJ, the lame lyrics, the tight pants, the JLS cameo, the KUFIYA! It’s so fabulously hipster. And this is coming from the girl that hates that label…and has Santogold “Creator” as her ringtone.

One of my new musical obsessions is a group called The Blow. Have a listen to their song “True Affection.”

Now, listen to D4L “Laffy Taffy”

I think you get it.

Now, I like this group simply because Imani Coppola is doing vocals and I loved her 1997 hit “Legend of a Cowgirl.” But for real, check out this video for the song “Black Barbie.” I just might love it more than their song “Crying for the Queen” (a rather harsh critique on Amy Winehouse and her dumbass antics).

“Black Barbie”

Just like the white one.

Peace.

And just because—one of my all-time favorite commercials.  Aired in 2006 during the Super Bowl.

WHAT?!?!

At the Diesel Rock Circus show this past weekend, M.I.A. revealed a baby bump that’s obviously been in the making for a while. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Maya alluded to the little one:

I’m kind of putting on weight. That could be it. I haven’t made it to the counter yet to buy a test. But when I do, I’ll let you know.

All I have to say is…WTF? Ok and maybe a big CONGRATS! I sincerely believe the world needs more Maya Arulpragasams. Or whatever her name will be after the wedding.

Kudos to Filthy Rag

So this is everywhere, but I had to post it too.

Check out this version of “A Milli” performed in Miami.  Just when I thought I was tired of this song…And yes, that’s ?uestlove keeping up with every single “a milli” as well as holding down the beat.

Yeah, you read the title correctly.  One of my favorite producer/DJs Diplo remixed Radiohead’s “Reckoner.”  Now, I’m not a huge Radiohead fan, but I’ll listen to this.  Check it out.

Enjoy.

Anyway, to those who cared about this little blog of mine, I have to apologize for my two month absence. Life happened, and I didn’t deal. But now, I’ve found what I was looking for—-a job, and stopped looking for something else—-a truly meaningful relationship with another human being.

Whatever. I’M BACK.
