M.I.A. - Matangi
Reviews2 CommentsOn M.I.A.'s latest record, the UK-based rapper, singer, and producer takes a small step away from the noisy production that made her last record so bombastic, but still manages to deliver a series of smart, infectious, and wild banger-style party tracks.
Blue Daisy - "I Used To Give A Fuck"
VideosCommentUK-based rapper Blue Daisy has a few notable tracks out that have pretty creative videos attached to them. While he hasn't exactly been establishing himself as a proponent of highbrow lyricism, for me, his songs do have a certain aggression and darkness to them that I find somewhat attractive. The hard-hitting, electrified instrumental on "I Used To Give A Fuck" is pretty invigorating, and is loaded with chopped and screwed vocals on the hook. Daisy's lyrics are pretty much what you could expect given the song title, but I can't say I was expecting something "deep" going into this anyway. Enjoy!

Major Lazer - "Bubble Butt" ft. Bruno Mars, 2 Chainz, Tyga, Mystic
Videos1 CommentSome Eric Wareheim-directed visuals for the Major Lazer track "Bubble Butt," which is featured on the duo's latest full-length, Free the Universe. The video's as ridiculous as it is NSFW--well, not if you work at a strip joint, I guess. Enjoy!
