Future – Sh!t [video]


Pope Future I gives us the Monday morning gospel. What a glorious way to start our week off. He even leaves behind the autotune to show us how he is still the songbird of our generation without the aid of autotune. Even though this isn’t one of his ballad you still get the Pure Love from his voice. Thank you Nayvadius.

The Chicago artist/producer Rashid Hadee is back at it again with his Chopped Not Screwed mixtape series. The same individual that brought you 808s & Hadee has now taken time out to put the chops to Drake’s Take Care album and create a brand new experience with Don’t Care. Rashid handles the lyrics on here with guest features by Neak, Slot-A, Philmore Greene, Thaione Davis, Sincerely Yours, Future Freshman and a reunion of Chapter 13 with an epic performance by Young Valentine on “Rebirth Of Legendary”. This absolutely is not one to be missed, enjoy!

Stood Me Up

Some people seem to always be surprised by my taste in music. I mean if you’ve followed me here for any amount of time you I Love WAKA FLOCKA, The xx, Santigold, Lana Del Rey, Madonna, DOOM, you get the point. Call it what you want (eclectic, to be cheesy) but I just Love it all. Especially hiphop, DUH. but I’ve always had a soft spot for electro synth-y pop (hello’s, the 80’s, I sonically miss you). Synth Pop is for the gawds. And these days indie (synth) pop is booming and lovely (except for the hipsters. I hate you hipsters. But if you’re a hipster in one of the dope bands you ONLY get a pass when performing the music. Otherwise I hate you and your hipsterism).

But really this just reminded me of a time when my dear, Kendra (Kendra is no longer with us. No, not dead. She just moved back home to DC *insert infinity sad faces here*), asked “What are you listening to?”. It was a question asked in a general term. I rang off a few names then listed a few others I’d yet to get to. Then her response, which is one of the most beautiful things ever said to me, was, *with a giant smile* “you always have the best music.” I keep that with me. She’ll never know how much that little statement meant to me. Unless she reads this. Which I don’t think she will. /pointlessramblingstory
