Cold War – Janelle Monae
We typically reserve the music posts for Friday, but we just realized this masterpiece is back online.
For all of you who didn’t quite fit in, like us … this came out before Katy and Gaga:
“I try to find my peace. I was made to believe there’s something wrong with me. And it hurts my heart! Lord have mercy ain’t it plain to see?”
Watch the whole thing. Please watch. It’s a Cold War.
Friday Music – tUnE-yArDs, Bizness
These kids are taking “Captain! My Captain!” to a whole new level. And we like it. It’s too nice out to write a blog, so enjoy this video from the tUnE-yArDs. Hope it brings as much sunshine to your day as we’re enjoying in LA!
Friday Music: Lykke Li – I Follow Rivers

We are loving the newly released Wounded Rhymes by Lykee Li. Here she is performing a stripped down version of “I Follow Rivers” at Victor Wynd’s Little Shop of Horrors.
Music for Friday afternoon
We’re loving Erykah Badu‘s hypnotic song “Gone Baby, Don’t Be Long” off her recent New Amerykah Part II: Return of the Ankh. Lucky us: the video, directed by Flying Lotus, is cool as hell, too. It even features a rocket at the end! Enjoy. We did.
