WHAT IN DAH HELL? The Bullitts, Jay Electronica & Lucy Liu: “Close Your Eyes”

HMMMM, HOW CURIOUS! Interesting collabo and the first of many “WHAT IN DAH HELL” posts: a trio collaboration between all walks of life. The Bullitts, as described on their, are: website, “A UK band, specializing in what singer/songwriter and producer Jeymes Samuel calls “Action Adventure”. Their debut album ‘They Die By Dawn & Other Short Stories’ features appearances from Jay Electronica, Tori Amos, Mos Def and is narrated by Lucy Liu. The Bullitts blend stunning music with compelling visuals and a Groundbreaking Interactive online presence.” I love innovative approaches to music! The first video below features the 3 in the studio and the proceeding one is the official vid. It’s quite the approach to narrative music.

tUnE-yArDs and The Roots on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon
Wow. Merrill Garbus (how 80s is the name Merrill by the way?) shows her incredible versatility in vocal capability with this energy-induced live performance. All while keeping the beat alongside The Roots. Even better, Black Thought spits a verse to add to the fire. I’m excited to see this fireball live!

Calez Gives You The “Middle Finger” (Video)
Well, looks like this up-and-comer is a little peeved with the blogging world because they haven’t put him on yet. Patience my friend! This song, “Middle Finger” by Calez has me hyped this morning. Firstly because (sorry I didn’t list ‘good music’ as the first reason) but he is rocking the Kid high-top fade. The beat is hot, and he is pissed, which usually makes for good flow. Check it below.

Spank Rock Video: “DTF DADT”
Indie/Dance Rapper Spank Rock has come out with a refreshing video to start off your work week for his newest song, “DTF DADT.” It will be dropping on his upcoming sophomore album, Everything Is Boring and Everyone Is a Fucking Liar. Bahaha, jaded much? His recent music sounds more exciting than the last. The video reminds me of that group Cubic Zirconia’s tunes, if you’ve ever peeped them. Take a listen. This excites me because his buddy, Santigold will supposedly be dropping an album this year too! Cannot wait!

RZA: “Operator” feat. Kosha Dillz & Kool G. Rap

Check out RZA’s newest leak, Operator, featuring Kosha Dillz (this name does not get old for me!) and Kool G. RZA had to say the following about this track:
“Here’s a demo of a song we made about a year and a half ago at my east coast studio ‘36 East’. It’s featuring Kosha Dillz, one of the rawest Jewish kids I know proving again that hip-hop comes in all shapes, sizes, forms and races… I thought I’d show him some love. The very special guest featured on this track is one of the illest of all time Kool G Rap.”
Shout to heebs all over the world.

Frank Ocean: “Novacane” Video

“Fuck me good, fuck me long, fuck me numb.” Yup, the drug-induced lyrics in Frank Ocean’s Novacane are delectably disturbingand the trippy new video is equally as enticing. The video was directed by Nabil Elderkin. Feast your eyes.

New Bjork: “Crystalline”

The OG from Iceland brings us a new and really awesome track, Crystalline. This is the first track off her multimedia project, Biophilia. Disconaivete.com is streaming Crystalline now, so you can check it out HERE. The synth-drums at the end make me eager to hear the rest of the album.

Big Sean: “Marvin Gaye & Chardonnay” (feat. Kanye West, Roscoe Dash)
The title might be the most appealing part of this song. It’s the newest track off of Big Sean’s upcoming album, Finally Famous, dropping June 28th. Beat is nice but Kanye’s first verse is a bit of a waste. Peep it below.
