SELECTOR: Big Boi Freestyle over Crystal Castles

Keeping in the vein of my previous post, here's a little video from Pitchfork TV's SELECTOR series in which a rapper picks between two beats and then BUSTS A FREE ALL OVER IT!!!! (sounds kinda gross). Anyway, very cool idea.

Not the best freestyle ever but I Dig Big Boi, Dig Outkast, Dig Crystal Castles so it's "right up my ally".

Give it a little check-eye.

Flaming Lips Friday

Happy Flaming Lips Friday everyone!! I figured this was in order because the Lips have just released their 12th album (and first double album) entitled "Embryonic" this past Tuesday. The album is quite an ambitious effort and combines their psychedelic space-rock sound from previous efforts such as: At War with the Mystics and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots with their acid/alternative/punk rock roots.

According to Wayne Coyne, The album came out of some extended jam sessions and "draw inspirations from Plastic Ono Band era John Lennon and Bitches Brew Era Miles Davis". There is certainly some interesting stuff going on in this album and it's certainly worth a few listens and if you are a Lips fan, maybe several. (hey the music guru/snobs over at Pitchfork even gave the album a 9 ! wow wow)

Here's a little video history of the band, from their early beginnings up to now.

Enjoy!
