I try not to bring up my music-critiquing hobby when I met new people. First off it seems a bit desperate (Hey you should check out my blog), and B most casual listeners go on a bit of a defensive when they find out I do music pretty hardcore (whether it’s conscious or unconscious I sti...

Y'all wanna see Kanye as a wee little baby?

http://rapgenius.com/discussions/44354-Kanye-as-an-8-year-old-in-china-given-to-me-by-astronomy-professor

The Story: This is crazy. My dad is an astronomy professor, and we just had dinner with his astronomy advisor from Harvard. He asked what I was into and I told him about my ventures into hip-hop (I’m a rapper/producer). He asked if I knew about Kanye West, and obviously being a Ye stan I kept my coo...

When someone dies there is a wave that goes out. Give condolences to people connected to the deceased, people who knew and loved that person. That’s why it’s always confusing when someone famous dies. A lot of people will talk about them, read about them, and even write about them even...

I found these guys while on Best Coast’s Soundcloud. With just a name reminiscent of Patti Smith and an adorable album cover to go off of I started to look into these guys. What I found was a four piece from Portland that is making some pretty great power pop. They formed in 2012, and have alrea...
