  • Duderonomy said: I also want to add Cumbia. Music about rancheros getting jealous over who's screwing their favourite donkey, and the things they had to do to win back its affection. fuck this place
  • You just wrote three paragraphs saying nothing other than it's "obvious." I don't know enough about Brexit so I am not going to speak on it. My take is that if one buys the knife, sharpens it and places it in the hand of a person who has made thei…
  • Not everyone who votes for these people are racists and sexists.  Humour me - what is the point of attempting to make this distinction?
  • Junior said: I've only read heard Do You Need My Love from Weyes Blood's new album and that is a hell of a tune. So very lush but strangely raw at the same time.  Yea, the production is immaculate.  The first lp is way too Medieval Times…
  • Weyes Blood This is soooooo dreamy.
  • Coming to Toronto later than November should only be if you have to. I love my city but would not suggest first-time visitors come for a winter. Summer in Toronto, however, should be something everyone tries at least once. The autumn is beautiful, t…
  • There's a whole load of new sounds since this thread came out 11 years ago but I would say The Weeknd's atmospheric and minimal soul informed by Ethiopian crooners has changed the entire landscape of production and vocals. He definitely wears his in…
  • This is excellent.
  • Saw Divines (loved it) and Short Cuts #2 and #5, the best of which were Blind Vaysha (Canada), Mariners (Canada), In The Hills (England) and Submarine (Lebanon). Am seeing The Bad Batch and I Am Not Your Negro this weekend. Was disappointed that T…
  • klezmer electro-thug beats said: Like, if there was a sniper aiming at a kid who would pull the trigger if you didn't watch American Sniper again, would you watch it?   The sniper being said American and the child being an Iraqi hellbent…
  • ketan said: Punch Drunk Love Totally. and Blue/Warmest colour is just not that good.
  • Not that I know of. His story - not all of it no doubt - has taken shape for me from books and interviews over the years. I'm sure extensive bios will begin to pop up online now.
  • His life is the stuff of movies and his music is the definition of fun, dangerous and sexy. He had an amazing life and career. 
  • Setbacks and Habits & Contradictions are unfukwitable but he began to lose me with Oxymoron. _____ This week's hits: Travis Scott - BIITSM - this is a solid gold release Esco and Rambo So Weird - Super Dumb - just like the title says, but I …
  • Episode titles are Gang Starr songs. I'm just glad that screen-presence-of-a-rice-cracker-I-act-with-my-eyebrows gal who played Jessica Jones isn't in it.
  • ketan said: Dej Loaf is hit or miss for me, but Try Me is a stone classic and basically gave birth to Post Malone's career.
  • Let me cleanse my palate to get rid of the bad taste of Euro men talking about what women should and shouldn't wear. Not sure if it's a bad sign about the current state of things that two of the best MCs right now are veterans Remy Ma and Lil Kim o…
  • They have the wrong Denis film in there. Not a single Dardenne brothers film. A Prophet and Under the Skin should be much much higher. It should be Hunger instead of Shame for McQueen. Spring Breakers is a ridiculous pick - you may as well have give…
  • Oh here it is. Yea, I love it.  Nikes video is stunning. At first, I was wishing he had gone for a true falsetto as opposed to the borderline cartoon high-pitch, but now I'm a believer. Endless - both visually and sonically - was so soothing. Inter…
  • I was really looking forward to the YG and find it a snoozefest. Maybe my expectations were too high. Nipsey's Slauson Boy 2 is fire. I am really enjoying Young MA out of Brooklyn. Starlito/Don Trip - Red Dot Free Ciafu - They Live: Waking Dead  No…
  • It was superpoaster (who was the resident punching bag until he got semi famous as Jesse Futerman and then he was the Board’s darling. You know how it is.). Lots of people saw it and asked for him to be banned. I don’t remember supporting his ban…
  • Jimster said The Hatters have gone as far as I can see.  Maybe I just have a thick skin.   They have but what you see today is the result of their stay. Because one definitely didn't need thick skin to be on the Board before, right? I hav…
  • klezmer electro-thug beats said: Waxi is a unique case though because it has a population that if there's one thing (aside from weird records that suck) that unites its population it is being holdouts, or at least people who have no concern w…
  • Okem said: You can try your hand at a word wall here http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/2Z79DzzJY8w2R58bpftq14k/quiz Well, there goes having a job and taking showers.
  • Ace Hood is underrated imo
  • The_Non said: Bassie, did you ever watch Lucky Louie? I have no urge to watch H&P, and LL was just awful. I don't understand why a guy that's so funny wants to churn out depressing shit. I just investigated Only Connect, you have a lott…
  • Watched a couple of episodes of Horace and Pete, mostly off the strength of the morning-after-sex-with-a-trans clip. Terrific bit of writing and acting. I like the theatre stage production, could happily watch Edie Falco read from the phone book an…
  • Good Records NYC purchase. It's a beautiful record.
