Real Talk Tuesdays: Kendrick Lamar

Almost three years later and I'm still bumping this whole album. I mean, you really haven't heard a chorus like this in a long time. So original. Still fresh.

Madhouse Mondays: The Chemical Bros. feat. St. Vincent

The Chemical Brothers with St. Vincent? Yes please. Dig this cut they call "Under Neon Lights". Keep 'em coming.

Feel Good Fridays: AM & Shawn Lee

Such a groovy tune - such a trippy video. Welcome to the weekend, y'all.

Throwback Thursdays: The Isley Brothers

You may know the Isley Brothers classic "Footsteps in the Dark" from it's sample used in Ice Cube's "Today Was a Good Day". Classic groove. Dig it.

Real Talk Tuesdays: Eddie Murphy

Wonder what Eddie Murphy has been up to? He's making reggae songs with Beenie Man and real talk? That's fan-fucking-tastic. Go on, Ed.
