>>> First up, congrats to both Man Man and The Yah Mos Def, who pulled in an 8.0 and a 7.5 respectively on the ‘Fork today. YMD, shown here spazzing out on First Friday at the MCA/Evil Design opening at Deep Sleep, where said to be chuffed and, according to their publicist, that it “read more like an 8.0.” Meanwhile, Man Man celebrate their release day with a big sold-out show tonight at Starlight Ballroom, and we’ll have some more coverage of all of that tomorrow. We even have a copy of the new record, and we’re actually going to listen to it! With an open mind and heart! Our therapist pretty much told us we have to. [Pitchfork]
