Nike Air Yeezy 2 seen at Coachella


Many people are talking about Kanye West's performance last night at Coachella.

Late, but still awesome.

If you've been unplugged from the internet, then you missed out on this gem from this past Friday. It's Stephen Colbert on Late Night w/ Jimmy Fallon, singing his rendition of the dreaded Rebecca Black hit song "Friday." Accompanying Colbert are the The Roots, Jimmy Fallon, American Idol Season 5 winner Taylor Hicks, and the Knicks City Dancers in tight blue jumpsuits.

How this came about, you ask? Well, Jimmy Fallon promised that if the public could raise $26,000 for  DonorsChoose.org, an online charity that gives money to schools in need, then Stephen Colbert would perform Rebecca Black's "Friday." A song so bad, in it's own ironic way, it became a hit. In less than 36 hours, the goal was reached. Never underestimate the power of American fandom.

Skip to 40 seconds to see the madness.

Quick Hit: Hodgy Beats - "Mystery"

Hodgy Beats from OFWGKTA or Odd Future for short (ironically), dropped this a couple of days ago. The sample is from old school English rock band, Moody Blues.

It's a love it or hate it thing when it comes to Odd Future. A lot of people think they're over the top with their music, others might think they're vastly overrated. Whatever the case might be, they really know how to get themselves out there. And that's key when you're trying to get you and your music out there.
