June 2012
To add on to my previous post[[MORE]]Despite my issues and objections with Obama’s administration just in regards to the Cuba-related issues, I’m probably still going to end up voting for him, just because in the grand scheme of things, I very much agree with a lot of his views. Part of me thinks that I really need to step up and do something to raise awareness and perhaps help gear...
Cuban stuff you probably won’t care about. [[MORE]]It’s fucking incredible how Mariela Castro comes into this country for a specific reason (which, in regards to what she’s done for gay rights in Cuba, I can’t argue with), but ends up saying how she wishes Obama would be re-elected so he can ease the restrictions and “normalize” the relations between the US and...

I absolutely love how last night I drunkely live-blogged my listening to Ready To Die by Biggie. Awesome.

The dude who wrote AllMusic’s review for Ready To Die called Easy Mo Bee’s beats “samey”? What? Those beats are some of the best on the album you dumb cunt.

It’s strange how tracks like “Suicidal Thoughts” and “Who Shot Ya” were placed between “Unbelievable” and “Just Playin’”. It’s pretty genius, though. It’s like this album was Biggie’s farewell letter and he tried to end it on a positive note, despite the real emotional stuff towards the end. Also how “Juicy”...

You all don’t even understand the impact this album had on me in high school. I was still listening to almost exclusively hip-hop, but I was getting more into the deep and underground shit than before. I was also incredibly lonely and depressed (as many in high school are) and somehow listening to this album on repeat helped me get through it all.

Man, I used to hate “Respect” off Ready To Die. It’s actually a pretty good song. This album really has no mediocre song. Nineteen tracks that range from above-average to legendary. So good.
The first line in Biggie’s song “Me & My Bitch” still amazes me after all these years:
“When I met you I admit my first thoughts was a trick; You look so good, I’ll suck on your daddy’s dick”
It’s amazing how I can listen to Ready To Die by Biggie and still know all the words to every song after such a long time. It truly is one of my favorite albums ever.
I’m listening to Public Enemy right now and I like want to make a real difference right now. Damn. The power of music.
FUCK
I completely forgot about Song of Faith & Devotion by Depeche Mode. What an amazing album.

A few thoughts for this evening
[[MORE]]
1. The fact that I was able to witness Victoria Legrand singing the back up vocals she does on Grizzly Bear’s “Two Weeks” LIVE is incredible. I will always cherish that, because usually Chris Taylor does them live.
2. “Beast Of Burden” by The Rolling Stones is an amazing song. If you hate classic rock for no reason, then...

“You broke my heart. Anjii came around with her candela and immediately you wanna...”
– This, my friends, is the quote of the night by my good friend John Saavedra, age 21.
I’m not a herb. At least I hope you don’t think I’m a herb.

I literally just got chills listening to the intro to “What You Need” by The Weeknd. Thank you Based God for these speakers/subwoofer.

Damn, had I known that A$AP Rocky performed at Bamboozle, I probably would have gone just for him.

Mount Eerie & El-P, in my opinion.
Mount Eerie has a new album? Geez, didn’t even know that. Totally forgot about the new El-P, as well. Will definitely listen to both.

You’re missing out on Sigur Ros.
You’re absolutely right. I’ve yet to actually listen to it. A lot of people I know have been talking crap about it, but I don’t care because I still really like them.

On Fire by Galaxie 500 is seriously one of the most beautiful albums I’ve ever listened to. And I thought it was garbage when I first listened to it. The more you listen to it, the deeper it sinks within you.
