Swagger like Us and Hellafied

So 'Swagger Like Us' (Kanye, Jay-Z, T.I., and Lil Wayne dropping on a M.I.A sample) exploded all over the blogs today. Unfortunately, almost everyone was asked to take it down so I probably shouldnt post it up for ya. However, I will link ya too where you can find it. Check it at elitaste. (Link)

Second part of this post is dedicated to this cat who sold me a tape on the street of NYC. I finally got my cd drive repaired, ripped it, and have been lovin it. The cats name is Hellafied, on Square Free Records. However, upon searching the internets, i found nothing on or by him or his label (not even a picture!). So, all you get is a couple tracks. If someone else sees something on this guy, feel free to send me an email and ill post it up!

KANYE SUCKS

If you haven't heard, yet, hippies hate Kanye West. That's because all hippies were at Bonnaroo over the weekend, and were forced to wait in the freezing fog for more than two hours for Miss West to perform. And then he played for fourty minutes. And that world famous lightshow designed by Martin Phillips and John McGuire? Completely wasted, as two songs into his set, the sun came up.


The only thing bigger than the moon? Kanye's ego.

But I gotta hand it to Kanye. He is a diva, but divas know how to put on a show. He performed about eight of his hit songs, all remixed for his show. I could not, however, take any of the "script" seriously. The whole "theme" of Kanye's show is that he's trapped on a spaceship named Jane, and I guess he's passing the time by performing. The interaction between Kanye and Jane is hilarious. At one point, Kanye complains that he "needs pussy," and Jane helps him by creating holograms that dance to "Golddigger." The fuck.


Girl, I can see your panties.

More news from Bonnaroo: MIA might be retiring. She told the crowd that she was glad to be spending her last gig "with her hippies" and kept repeting that it was her "last show ever." Whether this means last show this summer or lifetime— who knows. If she is retiring, I'm glad to have seen her at her last show, but for all of us I pray that she isn't.
