March 12, 201115 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 12, 2011 -> 12:59 AM) If Lupe sucked, you wouldn't think of it that way. You only think this way because it was a let down and you had high expectations. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 12, 2011 -> 01:09 AM) Lupe with another classic album. Man is amazing. 59 out of 100 on Metacritic. Pretty lousy.
March 12, 201115 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 12, 2011 -> 01:09 AM) Lupe with another classic album. Man is amazing. I give it a B-, with Food and Liquor being an A- and The Cool being an A+
March 13, 201115 yr QUOTE (The Critic @ Mar 10, 2011 -> 09:11 AM) Face To Face is playing the Bottom Lounge on May 5th and I already know I can't go. I am beyond disappointed. One of my favorite bands playing at that small and intimate of a room? That would be great. Damnit. I saw Face To Face at House Of Blues probably 8-10 years ago. I pretty much got my ass kicked, but it was a hell of a show.
March 13, 201115 yr Culdesac was better, but this is still swag. http://www.iamdonald.com/post/3720599556/n...p-download-here
March 13, 201115 yr I don't get all the praise for the Lupe Fiasco album. The weakest effort he's EVER put out & people are talking about it as if it's up there with his previous efforts. Ironically, this will more than likely be his best selling album. I'm happy for him in that sense, but if it means we'll keep getting this from him, he should of just retired. I like the Lupe that brought me the Fahrenheit 1/15 tapes & his 1st 2 albums.

I'm sure I was there, too. I've seen them five times, most recently at last summer's Warped Tour. They're always great, and I'm really glad they came back from "retirement". New album coming out in May, as well. What I've heard of it, I really like.

Actually, most real Lupe fans say this CD is not that good, but it's more of the "new" Lupe fans that think it's awesome. I hear a lot of girls singing to some of the songs and being like "This new Lupe guy is awesome!". I just shake my head. The Cool I think is his best CD by far, and Enemy of the State is probably my favorite mixtape of his, although A Rhyming Ape was really cool.
March 14, 201115 yr The good stuff.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2LRROpph0 its good to see new talent coming up in the industry..
March 15, 201115 yr QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Mar 15, 2011 -> 03:30 PM) At this time tomorrow, I'll be on a flight to Austin, TX for South by Southwest. Lucky bastard.

I felt my brain melting and dripping out of my earhole. That is awful, even by Disney Channel "standards". I don't know if that girl is a Disneybot, but she sure seems to be.

I don't know if that girl is a Disneybot, but she sure seems to be. I finally watched this last night since I kept reading about it everywhere and it was up to 13 million views on YouTube. Then they played it and made fun of it on the radio this morning so now I actually have it stuck in my head. Honestly, I don't see much difference between this song and every other Disney/Nickelodeon/bubble gum pop song that's come out in the last few years.
March 18, 201115 yr Don't think I've heard a more annoying autotune in my life than that song. And what the hell is Usher doing? He seems to be signing every little kid off the street these days.
March 18, 201115 yr After watching "Friday" and "My Jeans" I have come up with this- recipe to making a viral music video: 1) be a young female, like creepy young 2) lyrics written by even younger person 3) "sing" slowly enough to make sure that every word is autotuned 4) have awkward friends guest star in the music video with you, to be "real" 5) place a rap segment 3/4 of the way through the video, to show you a dangerous side, but make sure the rapper is white enough to not scare away mothers
March 30, 201115 yr The Sounds' new album is really good. Recommended for fans of indie/new wave/dance. You might remember one of their songs from that Geico commercial with the cavemen on motorcycles.
April 1, 201115 yr Two full-length tracks from the Foo Fighter's upcoming album: http://www.antiquiet.com/news/2011/03/foo-...-arlandria-mp3/ also didn't realize Pat Smear had rejoined. Time to bust out some Germs tunes! Edited April 1, 201115 yr by StrangeSox
April 2, 201115 yr Childish Gambino. You will like him if: you watch Community. you like Donald Glover. you don't like s***ty hip-hop. you like good hip-hop.

April 3, 201115 yr Saw Sebadoh tonight, they are playing in Chicago tomorrow. I think Lou Barlow is his own biggest fan.
