Musical Rumblings: Last Time We Mention Diplo For The Week
>>>Remember Spoon? Yeahyoudo. One of the least fun bands to ever be associated with Diplo The Dipper, their track “Don’t You Evah” gets the bells and whistles for Merge Record’s charity project. We know what you’re thinking, but the charity case here is really Oxfam America and the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina. But if you can’t pony up for the track, we will look away as you check it on Hype Machine. [Merge]
>>>Fort Fork can’t stop hounding the man, either. Errrrrybody’s got a Top 10, but we’re lookin’ at Dip’s: Black Lips, UGK, and NOT M.I.A. [Pitchfork]
>>>Have you caught Fox29’s new anti-violence public service announcement? Wise, likely scripted, words from Beanie Sigel:
“Exercise your mind, not your trigger finger.”
The message is one that doesn’t resonate when it comes from people who are never out past 8pm on a weekend, but it’s supposed to sink in with youth because it’s coming from a former convict and man of the Real World. [MyFoxPhilly]
BONUS ROUND: The Crimp Yr Hair boys get the spotlight on Discobelle with a megapostexclusiveOMGz full of remix & mix tape action. [Discobelle]
