“Party people, party people…”
“…can y’all get funky?”

This one’s an underrated party jam.
Eve and Swizz Beatz is a good combo.

True story: I took my family’s copy of Time on my trip up to school because I felt it was important enough to read right then and not later online.
I, like Maura, was disappointed. (more…)

One of the best covers/reworkings of any song, ever.
And it’s got special meaning for me.

Criminally underrated classic here; will set a party off.
That ratchet scratch, and the sensuality that drips…
I’ll be back with other stuff later.

As the world finally takes to “Paper Planes,” other M.I.A.
This is “Boyz.” I braved an seizure-inducing page to get it.
So enjoy it, please?

Terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad day.
Kanye makes things better. (Quick: YouTube’s going to kill this link.)

Listened to this last night. A clinic.
This is just sick in every aspect.
Also: Tha Carter III, $5 digitally on Amazon. And the gayest albums ever!

From Lil Wayne, the elegiac song that best expresses how I feel right now.
Stupid sinuses.

I’ve always thought this would make a good track for a hit montage…
…which is why it plays in my NCAA 09 after sacks.
Miley and the JoBros: Making Magic? Thursday, August 28, 2008

This gave me pause, and it should do the same to anyone with half a brain.
Where did the magic happen?
Nick: We did a lot of the work on a studio bus while we were touring with Miley Cyrus.
Kevin: And we completed the record at Studio Wishbone in L.A.
There’s a serious difference between “the work” and “the record” in the parallel structure there, and, for goshsakes, the question is a time-old “How was it?” analogue.
If this is when we hear from the horse’s mouth there was a Nick Jonas/Miley Cyrus coupling, why isn’t Blender (which is, after all, the musically-inclined cousin of Maxim) even acknowledging the either poor or perfect choice of words here?

If I had to pick one song to get me hyped…
…this would probably be it. I’m in my zone…
Football’s back tonight; I’ll be Flavor Flaving 1520 ’til the end of next week.

Some Chamilli from Mixtape Messiah 4.
The tape should be dropping soon.

Presenting: T-Wayne!
Well, this is at least interesting.

Fay is leaving! Jamaica’s winning every sprint track medal ever!
For this, I give you Sean Paul and Rihanna. It’s islandy.

Just listen to the sample/chorus.
Damn this storm. (As I type this, it’s not raining, just blustery. But still.)
Also, the storm kept me from celebrating the 100th post filed under 1520 Sedgwick Avenue here on DeadOn. (It was yesterday’s.) Thanks for reading most some several a couple of them.

Rain, rain, go away, like this crappy song today.
This song is just, it’s…I tell you, Ne-Yo’s hook skills are even better than I thought if I’m actually not totally repulsed by the comically lewd verses from the criminally bad Plies.

In “honor” of Tropical Storm Fay, an even worse Hurricane (Chris).
The refrain here is both totally stupid and what my front yard looks like.
