Passion Pit

I am so in love with this song, and now that I have seen the video I think that it has me in it grips. I have this song set as my ringtone and I have missed several phone calls because I was too busy dancing to pick up the phone in time.

Anyways, this group Passion Pit I heard about through the whole SXSW hooplah, and I gotta say, loves it.

And this video is soo freakin' dynamic.

By the way am a compulsive paper ripper. they say the first step towards recovery is confessing that you have a problem, but i don't want to recover...so i take that back. "ripper paper compulsive a am i greenpea is name my hi." let's pretend like this never happened.

Billie Club

If you have ever been in the wrong neighborhood, at the wrong time, and have been subjected to racially profiling by the "po-po," this song by Wayna feat. Muhsinah "Billie Club." goes out to you, you, you and you. (pointing fingers to random audience members, ehem...I mean blog-readers)

Wayna's has sung a word perfect portrayal of the all too familiar feeling that creeps up your spine when "The Man" is running your liscence plate number, or grilling you when you are standing on the corner lampin' with the homies.

Wayna you the truth gurl!

BTW i am soo excited for Thursday I am gonna piss in my pants =)

100TH POST!!

"It's a CELEBRATION BETCH!!"

Nah, but fo' real tho'. We at Writer's Block are proud to announce our 100th post, and thanks to all our "Ryde or Dye" readers, and RSS subscribers, and you visitors who occasionally grace us with your presence you deserve an applause.
In other news. It has been my observation that in '08 the trend was auto-tune and swagger jacking. Now that the word "swagger" has been officially eliminated from all of our '09 vocabularies, it has been substituted by Gibberish. Not not the word gibberish literally, but honestly for shame I think that the trend in music is to create music that no one can decipher.

It all started off with the Ting Tings "Impacilla Carpisung," which honestly has about 3 real words total and the rest is a collection of sounds, with no meaning. Leaving the listener to interpret what they want. I guess Ryan Leslie took that and ran with it with his next single "Gibberish." Wsdfaweknfir, what?! I'm getting my '09 vocab on, hehe.
