Theophilus London - "Humdrum Town"

Some dude posted a video of this guy on the facebook today. I liked it. Looked up more stuff, and found this. I wanted to link you to more of Theophilus, but I couldn't choose, it's all good. So if you like this just Google, or Youtube this guy, and click on anything you won't be disappointed. Be surprised if doesn't hit it bigger soon.

Neon Indian - Mind, Drips

Gorillaz - Doncamatic feat. Daley

Cool hair, cool voice, cool glasses, cool submarine. This Daley Kat is super cool.

Bernard Sumner, Hot Chip, and Hot City - "Didn't Know What Love Was" - Converse

Another cool song and stop motion video for Converse.

Nicki Minaj - Blazin (feat Kanye West)

>

Gotta Love Nicki Minaj. She's like the Lady Gaga of hip hop.

Kanye West - Chain Heavy (feat. Talib Kweli & Consequence)

Kanye West - Chain Heavy (feat. Talib Kweli & Consequence)

Jay Electronica - The Announcment

Jay Electronica -The Announcement

Been hearing a lot about this guy then today I read he has signed with Jay-Z's label Roc Nation. So I looked up some his stuff and found this gem.

Sleigh Bells - Riot Rhythm

Checkmate Bitch. Revenge of the M.I.A Ginger.

Summer Camp - Round the Moon

Winter is coming so when you are cold and depressed just play this summer camp love song by Summer Camp to warm your ears and to cure your S.A.D. Footage from the movie “A Swedish Love Story”. For more Summer Camp nostalgia go here.

Lissie - When I'm Alone

I apologize for this poppy post but I keep hearing this song on the radio and I can’t help singing a long, it’s so darn catchy and a million other girls agree (million views). Ole Lizzie also has a catchy cover of Pursuit of Happiness by Kid Cudi.

Kanye West- Joy (Ft. Pete Rock, Jay Z, Charlie Wilson, Curtis Mayfield, Kid Cudi)

G.O.O.D Friday features Curtis Mayfield this week.

Crystal Castles- I'm Not in Love (Ft. Robert Smith)

Hope this blows your mind as much as it blew mine. It's always good to hear Robert Smith's voice. Awesome collaboration. It makes you wonder if The Cure should ever release an electronic album? Or any album for that matter.

Daft Punk- Derezzed

Watch this new Daft Punk video for Tron 2.0

Twin Shadow-"Slow"

I watched this video around when it first came out. I revisited it today and streamed the whole album today (give a listen here). And it re reminded how badass his mustache is. Also how great the music is. But this video, I like to think, gives good insight in how most male porn star auditions go. Maybe not with the badass drumming and singing but with the crotch shots and creepy guy talk.

Runaway

Watch this epic hip hop opera by Kanye West. It's incredibly well done and directed by the man himself. The short film features music from Kanye's upcoming album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy". The soundtrack is incredible and the visuals suit the music perfectly. This definitely puts Kanye closer to Michael Jackson territory.

*Edit: If you want to watch the video in full screen, just click on the video and and you can watch it in full screen on Vevo

Kanye West- Don't Look Down (ft. Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco, and Big Sean)

I think this is my favorite G.O.O.D Friday song. It tells a story and has that old school sound. This lineup really works.

Daft Punk and Phoenix at Madison Square Garden

This actually happened.. Look for more coming from Daft Punk with the release of Tron 2.0 nearing.

Kanye recruits Keri Hilson for this weeks G.O.O.D Friday.

TRL Fridays!!! (Bon Jovi edition)

I woke up hungover on Sunday and checked out what I drunkenly tweeted the night before. I don't know if anyone else goes to Twitter after they've had a few to drink, but I do... Anyway most of it was standard tweets, but one stood out.

"Note to self: It's my life by Bon Jovi for next TRL Friday"

Don't really remember why I posted that, but I did. I think the reasoning behind it was the fact that the bar (Like almost every bar) was playing "Living on a Prayer", which got me thinking about Bon Jovi. Honestly the first time I've ever heard Bon Jovi was on TRL for the song "It's my Life". I guess it's sort of cool that this song made them relevant again and made them popular for a whole new generation (I bought the CD). So I guess that's why I tweeted that. So I'm posting this TRL Friday in honor of my drunken self last Saturday..

The Go Team- T.O.R.N.A.D.O

The Go Team are back!

TRL Fridays!!! (Blink 182 edition)

Alright so this video is a classic and basically sums up the late 90s music pop scene. It's got references to Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Sugar Ray, and Ricky Martin. Whatever happened to all them anyway? It's a shame you can't make videos like this anymore..

Live Gorillaz concert on Letterman

This is ridiculously badass. A full 45 minute Gorillaz concert for you guys to enjoy. It's cool to see how they pull off the live shows. Watch the full concert below.

Rye Rye- Sunshine (Ft. M.I.A)

Here is the music video for "Sunshine" featuring M.I.A.

Crystal Castles- Baptism

Crystal Castles are such a weird band. I can't ever understand what she says but their music makes me want to get up and dance.. And then start breaking things. Anyone else? Enjoy this video.

Karen O- If You're Gonna Be Dumb, You Gotta Be Tough

Karen O. (of Yeah Yeah Yeahs) - "If You're Gonna Be Dumb, You Gotta Be Tough" by Some Kind of Awesome

Here is Karen O's contribution to the Jackass 3D soundtrack. This song goes perfectly with the Jackass guys.

Smashing Pumpkins- The Fellowship

Another song for the show Vampire Diaries.... Whatever, it's a new Smashing Pumpkins song.

Goldfrapp- We Radiate

Check out this new Goldfrapp song for The Vampire Diaries. The one good thing about this vampire movement is the good music that comes from it.

The Gorillaz just released this single out of nowhere. It features Daley who tears it up on the vocals. Enjoy!

Brandon Flowers- Only the Young

Brandon Flowers returns to Vegas for his new video which features performances from the cast of La Reve.

The Kooks- All that she Wants (Ace of Base)

Apparently this is 3 years old.. I've never heard it before so I decided to post it. I'm pro anything that involves Ace of Base.

Major Lazer- Percumajor

Awesome new video from Major Lazer. It's time for the percumajor.

Kanye West- Christian Dior Denim Flow (ft. Kid Cudi, John Legend, Pusha T, Loyd Banks, and Ryan Leslie)

Kanye delivered on G.O.O.D Friday after threatening to pull it this week. Thank God because this track is awesome. I should rename the blog freakoutkanyewestmusic.blogspot.com. And also I have a feeling that Pusha T is the next Kanye student that is going to have a breakout year. 

Chris Brown- Deuces Remix (Ft. Drake, T.I, Kanye West, Fabulous, Andre 3000)

Oh shit! Not sure if this is the G.O.O.D Friday track this week, but this song is pure fire! Bravo to everyone involved in this.

TRL Fridays!!!! (Kanye West edition)

Bloggers may have pissed Kanye West off this week. We took advantage of his G.O.O.D Friday releases and still posted "Lost in the World", a leaked track of his new album. While the song was a banger, the YouTubes were taken down and Kanye expressed his anger over the leak on Twitter. He threatened to hold back on G.O.O.D Friday and not bless us with a free track this week.... Bummer... He later said that G.O.O.D Friday might still be on today. We can only hope.. All of this made me reflect on when my obsession with Kanye first began. I remember being in high school and moving away from modern music. I was sucked into the trap of only listening to classic rock and jam bands to fit in with the other kids.. Kids weren't really that current in my school. It says a lot about me trying to fit in back in the day, yet still not truly being happy with myself... Wait was that the beginning of my downward spiral? Hmm..Anyway enough of my personal problems. I remember flipping through the channels and seeing on TRL some rapper talking about how he recorded a new song with his mouth wired shut after getting in a car accident. At that point I had been removed from the modern music scene and had no idea who that rapper was. I was intrigued by this guys ridiculous amount of cockiness and decided that I would watch the video. That was the first Kanye video that I saw and was immediately hooked. Kanye restored my faith in rap and let me become more accepting of modern music again. Watch this historic (Kanye's own words) video for "Through the Wire" and feel Kanye's pain (His words again).

Eminem- No Love (Ft. Lil Wayne)

Awesome video for this video dealing with the subject of bullying. Eminem and Lil Wayne need to release an album together.

Bright Eyes- Coyote Song

Watch this new video by Bright Eyes. It's a good old fashioned protest song. In case you didn't know, this was written about the Arizona immigration law.

Local Natives- Wide Eyes

This video proves that sharks aren't just dangerous in the water.

Justin Timberlake, The Roots, and Jimmy Fallon give the history of rap

This is pretty epic. If you don't know anything about rap, you need to watch this video and get educated. They cover everything from Sugar Hill Gang to Soulja Boy. This is really funny.

Duck Sauce- Barbra Streisand

Check out the video from A-Tracks side project. Check out all the cameos including Kanye West, Chromeo, Pharrell, and Yelawolf

Kenny West ft. Cleveland Brown- Be-Cleve in Yourself

This was from the Roots and John Legend concert at Terminal 5. Pretty awesome cover if you ask me.

TRL Saturday?

Being the rock star that I am, I was too sick to update the blog yesterday.. Yeah I know that's pretty lame. Anyway so I'm putting out the TRL Friday on Saturday. Since I'm doing this on Saturday I've changed my original choice. Saturday means college football, and college football means young college kids fucking up and letting down thousands of fans. So this music video goes out to all the kids that are about to fuck up today.

Kanye West- So Appalled (Ft. RZA, Jay-Z, Pusha T, Swizz Beatz, Cyhi the Prince)

The latest installment of G.O.O.D Friday. Jay-Z kills it in this song.

Nas and Carlos Santana- Back in Black

Sorry Kanye and Justin Bieber, I'mma let you finish but Nas and Carlos Santana get the nod for biggest WTF collaboration of the year. I never thought that I'd hear Nas and Santana covering AC/DC. I'm sure most people are going to hate this, but I actually think this is pretty good. It's off of Santana's new covers album.

Weezer and Hurley sing "Perfect Situation" Live

The cover star of Weezer's new album "Hurley" came out and performed with them last night. He's actually not that terrible.

Amazing Live Footage of Atoms for Peace

Footage from the Atoms of Peace concert at the Fuji Rock festival has just been released. If you didn't know, Atoms for Peace is Thom Yorke's band consisting of producer Nigel Godrich and Flea. They play Radiohead and Thom Yorke solo material. This is all captured in DVD quality. The footage that was available consists of “Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses”, “The Hollow Earth”, “Paperbag Writer”, “And It Rained All Night” and “Cymbal Rush”. Watch Thom Yorke and the band rock out these songs below. Warning: Very spastic dancing from Thom Yorke. 

Scissor Sisters- Any Which Way

Check this new video from Scissor Sisters. It's everything you would imagine a Scissor Sisters video to look like.

Belle & Sebastian- Come on Sister

Belle & Sebastian - "Come On Sister" by Some Kind of Awesome

Check out this psychedelic sounding song from Belle and Sebastian. 

OK Go- White Knuckles

OK Go are officially the kings of the music video. If only their music could be as good...

M.I.A- Story to Be Told

Check out the weird new interactive video from M.I.A. The video basically consists of web browsers flashing patterns to the music. The video can only be seen on the website yesthelittlepeoplewillneverwinbuttheycanfuckshitup.com. I'm not joking... Watch the video by clicking the link below.

M.I.A- Story to Be Told

Travis Barker- Jump Down (Ft. Cool Kids)

Check out this track from the upcoming Travis Barker album. If this song is any indication, this CD is going to be pretty sick.

Sleigh Bells- Infinity Guitars

Sleigh Bells are definitely one of the biggest buzz bands of the year. This past year they rocked SXSW, released their first album, and collaborated with MIA. You can now watch the music video for their song "Infinity Guitars" over at NME by clicking on the link below.

Sleigh Bells- Infinity Guitars

Kanye West- Lord Lord Lord (Ft. Mos Def, Swizz Beatz, Raekwon, Charlie Wilson)

Another gift to the fans from Kanye West. Is there anybody that is on a bigger hot streak right now than Kanye? Keep the G.O.O.D Fridays coming.

TRL Fridays!!!! (Silverchair "Ana's Song" edition)

\\\

With the debut of TRL Friday last week, I brought you the classic summer jam from LFO "Summer Girls". That song was in memory of Rich Cronin, their singer who recently died of cancer. This week I'm going with a more rock direction. TRL was in fact, more than just boy bands and pop divas. TRL also had some good rock songs thrown in the mix. This song in particular always sort of scared me when I was a kid. It blew my mind to hear a singer sing about his past experience with anorexia. It honestly sort of freaked me out. I was more used to songs along the line of "Hit Me Baby One More Time". Seeing this video still sort of gives me chills. Daniel Johns is pretty obvious with the lyrics of the song "Ana wrecks your life" obviously is talking about anorexia. So I'm posting this video because for me, it was my first real experience to music that wasn't considered pop and it dealt with personal problems that weren't just broken hearts. So kick back and let the nostalgia kick in while watching this TRL classic.

The Michael Jackson Experience (Video Game Trailer)

Check out the new trailer for the upcoming Michael Jackson video game. Pretty crazy idea. It will be interesting to see how the game will work without some sort of dance mat to stand on, like in DDR. Anyway, you can look forward to dancing like the "King of Pop" when the game comes out on November 23.

Blonde Redhead- Not Getting There

Cool new video from Blonde Redhead.

Neil Yong- Hitchhiker

Another new video for Neil Young. Sort of weird when he lays out all the drugs he tried.. Another solid vid if your a fan of Neil Young.

Lil Wayne- I'm not Human

Yes he's still in prison, but that won't stop Weezy from putting out music videos. Check out Wayne rocking out in this vid. Free Weezy!!!

Dolorean- Real Love

Check out this creepy new video from Dolorean. Don't watch if you have a fear of dogs...

Gayngs- Last Prom on Earth

Gayngs is the side project of Bon Iver, Rymesayers, and Solid Gold. How sensual is this song? It's so sensual that Prince is on the side of the stage nodding his head in approval. Now that is sensual.

The Very Best- Julia

Check out this new jam from The Very Best. Too bad this song came out at the end of summer... This song was made for your summer playlists. Oh well..

Smashing Pumpkins- Spangled

Another new Smashing Pumpkins song off their upcoming album Kaleidyscope. Spangled is a short and mellow song. My only complaint is that it's too short. Can't wait for this album to come out though.

Florence & The Machine- Heavy in Your Arms"

Check out this dramatic new video from Florence and the Machine. Watch Florence sing her heart.

Neil Young- Angry World

Neil Young still has it. This angry world is making Neil angry.

Kanye West- Runaway (Studio Version)

Here is the studio version of my pick for the anthem of the year. Let's all have a toast to my favorite douchebag Kanye West. Also below is a trailer for his new short film based on the song. Looks artsy.

 

Freelance Whales- Hannah

A lot of crazy things going on in this video. Watch and enjoy.

Kanye West- Runaway (VMA Performance)

2010 MTV Video Music Awards - More VMA Video

About a year after the whole Taylor Swift/Kanye West incident at the VMAs, both were back to debut new songs. Taylor Swift decided to milk the situation by starting off with a video of the incident. She then preceded to sing a song about forgiving Kanye. She sang lyrics letting him know that he can still get into heaven and that he can recover from hitting rock bottom... (Wait he just interrupted her right?) Anyway.. Later on in the night after Taylor Swift was done with her pretentious performance, Kanye took the stage and dominated. Watch the video above to see Kanye keep it real in his music, and more importantly sing something sincere and creative. Complete opposite of Taylor's performance...

Kanye West- Good Friday (Ft. Common, Pusha T, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, and Charlie Wilson)

Another banger from Kanye West and crew.

TRL Fridays!!!

Introducing a new feature on the blog. Growing up, the only thing that kept me sane in middle school was coming home and watching TRL. Most of my memories of the mid 90's to early 2000's are based on the videos that dominated the countdown.... Don't judge me... Anyway, it was a happier time where you can watch your favorite video 50 days in a row before it would be retired. All the new videos would always have their debut on TRL, and more importantly it was a time when there was actually music on MTV. Yeah a lot of the videos were cheesy and poppy, but where else could you see the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Britney Spears, and Outkast all on the same countdown? So in honor of the positive effect that Carson Daly and TRL had on my life, I've decided to pay homage to TRL by having TRL Fridays. This feature is just me posting a random TRL video every Friday. Basically whatever I'm feeling.

John Legend & The Roots- Little Ghetto Boy

Keeping it real.

Weezer- Memories

Weezer
Tags: Weezer, New Music, More Music Videos

Weezer + Jackass= Entertaining Video.

Phil Selway- By Some Miracle

This music video from the Radiohead drummer is dark, dreary, and depressing. I love it!

Sufjan Stevens- Too Much

 


Another new Sufjan Stevens track from his upcoming album "The Age of Adz". Like his last release "I Walked", this track is also heavy on the electronics. After hearing two of the songs you definitely get a feel of how the album is going to sound. I like this new direction he's going. It's always cool when a band experiments with a new sound.

Surfer Blood- Floating Vibes

Cool new video from cool new band Surfer Blood.

Class Actress- Terminally Chill (Neon Indian cover)

This song just got a lot sexier with this cover by Class Actress. Neon Indian should be proud.

Junip- Always

Cool song and video from Jose Gonzalez's band.

Kings of Leon- Radioactive

New Kings of Leon song and video. College girls that don't know anything about music must be going crazy right now. Look for this song to be playing at every bar you go to for the next 6 months...

Kanye West- Devil in a New Dress

Another G.O.O.D Friday track from Kanye. This one features Kanye showing off his soulful side.

B.O.B- Magic (Ft. Rivers Cuomo)

Another summer song finally gets an official video.

Land of Talk- Quarry Hymns

Another beautifully shot video from Land of Talk. If you like this video make sure you check out their amazing video for "It's Okay" over here.

Cee Lo- Fuck You

The song of the summer gets an official video.

Brandon Flowers- Hard Enough (Ft. Jenny Lewis)

Cool song and great collaboration. I love me some Jenny Lewis and her voice goes well harmonizing with Brandon Flowers. His album Flamingo comes out on September 14.

Big Sean- Finally Famous Vol. 3

Check out the new mixtape from G.O.O.D music artist Big Sean. Kanye West swears by this kid and he is quickly blowing up. \ This is sort of the Chinese Democracy of mixtapes with it always being pushed back. It's definitely worth the wait though. Big Sean will only continue to get more famous after this mixtape. G.O.O.D Music represent! You can download the mixtape from his website by clicking the link below.

Big Sean- Finally Famous Vol. 3

Alors on Danse Remix- Stromae (Ft. Kanye West and Gilbere Forte)

Check out Kanye West's remix of the European club banger "Alors on Danse". Does Kanye just live in the studio? It seems that he's putting out at least two songs everyday. The range of songs that he put out this past week with "Monster", the Justin Bieber remix, and now this song shows why he is the best in the game.

Warpaint- Undertow (Acoustic)

Simply beautiful.

Drums- We Used to Wait (Arcade Fire)

Yesterday I posted a new Drums song and a the interactive music video for Arcade Fire's "We Used to Wait". So now it only makes sense for me to post Drums doing a cover of that song.. They definitely do it in their own style.

Kanye West, Justin Bieber, Raekwon- Runaway Love Remix

Officially the weirdest collaboration of the year. Can't believe that Justin Bieber made it to my blog... To make things weirder, this all happened through the power of Twitter when Kanye asked Justin if he can do a remix of this song. Kanye and Raekwon are dope in this song. Justin Bieber is Justin Bieber I guess....

Jay-Z- Most Kingz (Ft. Chris Martin)

Pretty sick track.

Sex Bomb-omb- Garbage Truck

Music video from Scott Pigrim's band Sex Bom-omb. If you haven't seen Scott Pilgrim yet, you are really messing up...

Arcade Fire- We Used to Wait (Interactive Video)

Check out the new interactive video for "We used to Wait". Arcade Fire teamed up with Google maps for this video and stars the house you grew up with. Pretty cool idea. Get nostalgic by clicking the link below.

The Drums- Down by the Water

Old fashioned video for an old fashioned song. I love the music that The Drums are putting out right now.

Kanye West, Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Bon Iver, Nicki Minaj- Monster

 


Holy Shit! The first of Kanye West's "G.O.O.D Fridays" where he is releasing a new song every Friday. This is a crazy collaboration. Everyone brings the heat in this song. Can't wait for next Friday!

Interpol- Barricade

New Interpol video.. Hipsters rejoice!

Sufjan Stevens- I Walked

 


Check out this new Sufjan Stevens song from his upcoming album "The Age of Adz". This definitely isn't what you'd expect from him. The song is filled with electronic beats and the vocals are filled with synthesizers. Really interesting but pretty cool. Can't wait to see how the whole album is going to sound. 

Wavves- Post Acid

Check out this fun new vid from Wavves. This video has my two favorite things in the world.... Aliens acting a fool and former MTV VJ John Norris. It's always a treat to have a John Norris sighting.

Washed Out- Hold Out

Does the chillwave movement die during the fall and winter? Cool video though...

Lupe Fiasco- Go to Sleep

 


New jam from Lupe. Can't wait for his new album to come out. This track has a sick beat and sweet flow. Enjoy!

MGMT- Congratulations

Watch MGMT journey through the desert with some dying dinosaur creature.

Cee-lo- Fuck You

This is the song of the year so far. The song says it all.

Toro Y Moi- Low Shoulder

The "chill wave" rockers have a new video. Watch as this hot girl gets tortured by some old lady....

Stream the new Sufjan Stevens EP

Here is the new Sufjan Stevens EP in it's entirety. Enjoy!

Kanye West- Power (Remix ft. Jay-Z and Swizz Beatz)

  
Here is the remix of Power that Kanye has been hyping all week. While I like the verses more, I think that the original has a better beat. That's just me though. It's pretty cool to hear Jay-Z rapping to this. Overall really cool remix and awesome rapping. 

Arcade Fire- Ready to Start

Check out this video for "Ready to Start" by Arcade Fire. The video features live footage of their recent tour. A sample of what an Arcade Fire concert is like.

Real Estate- Out of Tune

Out Of Tune by truepanther

Catchy new tune from the New Jersey rockers. Much like their other songs, this has a really chill vibe to it. This song has a more clean sound than their previous stuff. I like it that way.
