KANYE WEST

"Heartless" is a song by American hip hop artist Kanye West, released on November 4, 2008 digitally as the second single for his fourth studio album, 808s & Heartbreak. It debuted at the number four spot on the Billboard Hot 100 where it eventually peaked at number two and reached number-one on the Billboard Hot Rap Tracks and U.S. Hot 100 Airplay chart.[1] The song came to be covered by numerous artists, most notably by Denver-based piano rock band The Fray and American Idol season 8 winner Kris Allen, with both versions managing to enter charts in the absence of a physical single release.

Goes Cube - "Grinding the Knife Blade"; Well it seems Goes Cube are finally over naming their songs after numbers, which is a definitely a good thing, and this rocking ass track certainly sets the bar fairly high for all the actually titled songs to come. Grade: B Art Brut - "Just Desserts"; This may just be the B-side to their lead single, but Art Brut and Eddie Argos...
Inspired By Tim Duffy 2008 was a shit year for music. With the economy falling down around us, the music industry continued to crumble under the pressure of the internet…falling down, down, down and barely even pulling in a cent (or so they would like you to believe). Bands inspired by the few cash cows we have left aped and copied their way through records. Folks were led to believe...
Andy Milonakis - "Let Me Twitter Dat"; A series of still photographs isn’t really a video, but when they are pieced together with an super simple, but hysterical concept it works out really well.

Yall.. I didn’t watch the Grammys cuz I’d rather just read reactions to it on the internet, then pretend that I watched it/was there/I am connected to the modern world.

Maybe next year I...

KANYE WEST MP3s

In the music video to Banjo or Freakout’s “Upside Down” an Indian, a football player, a guy in a chicken suit, an angel, a solider, a Playmate bunny, a man covered in blue paint, and the Grim Reaper are all seen running and jumping into the ocean in slow motion. It’s a striking sequence and the band’s music has a surreal, transcendental quality that fits those...
10. Chairlift - "Bruises"; Talk about your commercial appeal, I wouldn’t have given this album the time of day or have gone to see the band during CMJ without this song taking over my TV on all those freaking iPod commercials. Seriously the album is more or less staid but this song is absolutely amazing. 9. Estelle (feat. Kanye West) - "American Boy"; I can’t...
At the moment, I’m listening to Chicago-based Kid Sister’s frivolous single "Pro Nails," a wet and shiny ode to nail polish, and sheepishly bouncing my shoulders. It’s a well manicured track with NO cracks, so please file it down…in your music library. Typically, rap videos aren’t anything I write home about, though I do harbor a secret envy of sweet...
