I Wish That it Would Rain

Been a few delays, but the shop should be open for business real soon.

The shirt of the week over at Printosaurus!
I have the privilege of owning one of these fine shirts. Make sure and pick one up for a super low price and be one of the cool kids on the block. In the process you also support some of my favorite people in the whole world.

Complex Magazine makes great lists. This is an undeniable fact. From Artists to sneakers, music to cars, and also trips to the strange sides with lists documenting “ridiculous sports tweets,” and “top ten animals movies that will make you cry like a little girl,” you can lose hours in minutes. I got hip to these lists through a steady run of a “Top 25 graffiti writers from (insert city) of all time.” Through proper outsourcing each list was great and knowledgeable.
So looking for new music to listen to I was excited to find this list. My excitement was immediately tempered when I found “Watch the Throne” at number two. (Sidenote: i found that album to be an enormous letdown from what I heard. The catchiest part of it is by a dead guy, Otis Redding.) Disregarding some mainstream stuff and some hipster bullshit her’s what i found interesting, listed in order starting at 25 going backwards to the top….

So there you go. The found This last artists to have produced the album of the year. It’s growing on me but I’ll have to hear it straight through or something. I’m definitely most intrigued by the new Roots album. I’ll go buy that. After that A$AP Rocky comes off like an east coast Tyler the Creator with less imaginative raps but perhaps better overall songs. Pe$o has production that is hard to beat. Kendrick Lamar and Danny Brown both interest me. I would like to hear more from them. The Cults and Toro y Moi seem like solid listens, good studio music. My Favorite? The Pusha T Tyler the Creator track. Great visual representation of two worlds colliding.
Sorry for the lack of posts. I gots to buy a flickr pro account before I upload anymore images….
