Well I just got into this show on the BBC that’s been out for a couple years now. It’s got that very dry English humor, but it also has some laugh out loud worthy moments. It often breaks into musical interludes, but these are some of the funniest bits.
I’m a big fan of Kid Cudi and am awaiting his upcoming album that Kanye is producing. You can download his mixtape from his website for free. You’ve already heard his song Day N Night which is phenomenal, or more likely you’ve heard the remix.
Well, just for fun, how about a Disco/Funk mashup. Here it is. Shame at Night- Cudi vs Evelyn King
Every now and then, somebody rebels against the authorities. Sometimes this rebellion takes a nearly unprecedented turn of awesome. Seeing something like this really warms the cockles of my heart. But aren’t you heartless, I hear you exclaiming? That’s, just simply untrue and maybe even hurtful. I just don’t care enough to care, after all a great man once said something along the lines of, “lets drink until we can’t feel feelings”.
But I digress, this isn’t about me but about Danger Mouse. He is the Dj who started the mashup craze by mixing the Beatles White album, with Jay-Z’s Black album creating of course the Grey album, and being the musical half of Gnarls Barkley.
He had a dispute with his record label, which wouldn’t allow him to release his new album Dark Night of the Soul, which was a collaboration with Sparklehorse, various singers and David Lynch. Yes that David Lynch. Lynch created a photo book based on the album, which was to be released with the album.
To fight back, he’s releasing the photo book with a blank CD-R.
An unnamed spokesperson for Danger Mouse says that “due to an ongoing dispute with EMI” the book of photographs will “now come with a blank, recordable CD-R. All copies will be clearly labeled: ‘For legal reasons, enclosed CD-R contains no music. Use it as you will.’”
My baby…something something. If I knew the words, I’d sing along, but print doesn’t really transfer into song well. I may hate you, and you may hate me, but this song is very good. Some would say it’s give a dude a hj for crack good, but I think that’s pretty fucking weird. But the song is just simply, really good. Too each his own I guess though.
