This Will Satisfy Your MGMT Fix

Meredith and I heard this new track by Kid Cudi featuring MGMT and Ratatat a few weeks back when it first came out (dropped?) and I wasn’t sure how I felt about it but now, I’m really digging it.  I’m the farthest thing from a music critic so I won’t pretend to analyze it, but I’ll just say that it’s calming without putting you to sleep.  If you like MGMT, you’ll probably like this.

How Did This Escape My Notice

for months?

All that matters is that we found each other now.  There is so much Things That I Will Always Find Rad (i.e. synthesizers,beat that makes you want to dance, Santigold, Lykke Li, trippy visuals, bright colors, flashing lights) going on here. Happy Wednesday.  Or, if you’re me, and it’s 1:05am, happy still Tuesday, but technically Wednesday.

Kanye West Doesn’t Care About Bay Area People

Dear Kanye West and Lady GaGa:

No San Francisco dates of your joint Fame Kills tour — but you are going to Sacremento?! What the fuck gives, guys?

 

 

 

 

And Sac: I’m really happy for you, and I’mma let you finish, but San Francisco is the greatest S-named city in the Pacific Northwest, and we deserve this concert more than you do.

Kanye West Will Let You Finish

Fact:

“If a girl wears a short skirt or dress, men automatically think, ‘She wants it, and she’s probably an animal in bed.’ I just want to feel sexy today. I don’t want you” — Amber Rose, model/girlfriend of Kanye West

Are there still music video directors? If so, here’s the concept. You’re Welcome.

Meredith: uh oh i smell summer jam.  go riri.  i like to envision, jay-z, rhianna, and kanye as an entourage.  they storm into clubs, swiggin’ on moet.  throwing the bottle over their heads when they’re done.  pushing people off of couches so riri and kanye can dance on them, while jay nods his head to the beat.  they eat shrimp cocktail while strippers dance on poles, and rhianna dances on tables in 4 inch heels singing the chorus to “live your life”.  as they leave the club, they encounter chris brown, ney-o, and i dunno, paris hilton? and a fight breaks out.  jay and kanye smash bottles over chris brown et. al.’s heads.  then they kick down the door and speed off in their stretch limo, this song blasting.  as they speed off into the early morning
