Met Her Uptown on Dyckman, Aight Then

I’m so lame for not blogging, but it’s been a busy few weeks. At least these songs have kept things interesting…

PodZilla
to the rescue.

I would have listened to it regardless, but I have to give Renaud credit for rushing me to give the Fab album some spins. You already know I adore The Gossip, and “Love Long [...]

Go To War With The Mormons, Take a Bath With The Catholics

Always loudly controversial, Eminem is getting a lot of attention with the video for his debut single, “We Made You.”  Mocking celebrities, or rather, mocking why we give them so much power, the video portrays exaggerated versions of everyone from Jessica Simpson, Kim Kardashian, Amy Winehouse, Lindsay Lohan and Sarah Palin - all females whose business relentlessly [...]

There’s A Lady Who’s Sure All That Glitters Is Gold

I wanted to do a Best of 2008 list, but the truth is, I hate ranking things. If you know me or you read the blog regularly, you already know what the favorites are. Hopefully you’ve related to a post, been introduced to an artist, or gotten something out of The Labyrinth from time to [...]
