Here’s American rapper Cazwell’s newest single “No Selfie Control”. See how it’s both cleverly poignant and fun enough to be the kind of music you’d listen to on a road trip? Or anywhere else, really, as you take photos of yourself and not notice the […]
The MTV Movie Awards is a huge bullshit-fest, and a gaudy excuse for inconsequential people to shill their latest products. It’s kind of like Home Shopping Network but with more cocaine consumption. However, a highlight this year was Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ performance of their […]
Here’s why I became a Cakes Da Killa fan after seeing the video for “Goodie Goodies” (below): 1) The Billie Holiday homage. You can’t go wrong with her as your stylistic inspiration. 2) He serves a lot of ASS in this video. Videos need way […]
