Today is Christmas eve, wow…Where the hell did the year go? It hardly feels like Christmas, let alone the end of 2009. Things will be getting busy for me over the next week or so, so forgive me if I am not posting as frequently from now until new years. I am going to try and work on my top songs/albums of the year, as well as a decade thing. So keep on the prowl!
For now, enjoy some songs from the newly leaked Broken Bells album, as well as a new Lupe Fiasco song. Having these to listen to, along with a promo copy of a very highly anticipated album (I am not allowed to tell what it is though!) are making this a pretty solid Christmas!
[mp3] : Lupe Fiasco – I’m Beaming
– From Lupe’s eventual new record Lasers. Lupe hits it pretty solid with “I’m Beaming”, and reminds me why he is one of the only rappers I can constantly rely on. I hope he can blow us away some more in 2010!
[mp3] : Broken Bells – October
– I gave the a listen to the debut album of the James Mercer/Danger Mouse project known as Broken Bells, and it is quite good! “October” stood out from the rest of the album pretty instantly. The song takes about one minute to kick in, but it does in full force. With James’ crisp, clean vocals, a driving bassline, and jangly guitars, this song made my ears smile! Danger Mouse produced this song to regions of gold! It may not be October, but we can still find many ways to enjoy this song in the cold!
