Step Into The Realm | The Roots

Things Fall Apart was an album that taught me to listen to hip-hop differently, and to expect more out of all the music I listen to. Between this song, where the beat drops here and there, and “The Next Movement,” which uses a very unique song structure, and the socially-aware content, this album raised the bar for all the music that would enter my ears from there on.

It Was A Good Day | Ice Cube

Premonitions of a good day:

  • No barking from the dog.
  • No smog.
  • Breakfast with no hog.

Confirmation: The Goodyear blimp declaring you to be a pimp.

Fur In My Cap | Rob Roy

Saafz let me know about this the other day. I’m kinda hooked on this song and the video.

Free Beats

One guy who can beatbox. A couple microphones and an amp. The citizens of New York City.

I’ve probably posted this before, but I still love this video.

It’s The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) | R.E.M.

Why does this always seem like a great idea for a karaoke song whenever I’m drunk?

King Of Pain | The Police

Does anyone else have an inner monologue that is typically narrated by Sting? Well, I do…and it often sounds like Sting in this song, especially after the song picks up.

Now that I’m eligible, I’m just putting it out there. [via]

Scenario | A Tribe Called Quest ft. Leaders Of The New School

I’m pretty weary about forming friendships just based on one instance of common ground, but there is a special place in my heart for people who can recite lines from this song. Going back and forth on this song is the musical equivalent of discussing Wes Anderson films for me.
