FRANK OCEAN

just found out about this dude. he just dropped a free mixtape called "nostalgia/ultra." what really grabbed my attention was the cover. the juxtaposition of the tricked out BMW in a nature setting is really hot. Frank is down with the OFWGKTA crew, who is kind of taking over the world in a big way right now. but while all of odd future rap, frank ocean sings.... smooth RnB, and most of its good. this is a free mixtape and a lot of the songs are just ok, but some are really great and show a lot of potential.... "swim good" is just fucking DOPE.

CREEP WITH NINA SKY

+

=

one word


TANTALIZING.




a lot of people may not remember this song, but nina sky were sort of a one hit wonder on mainstream radio a few years ago, i think they were poised for big things and i am not really sure what happened... maybe the north american mainstream audience wasnt ready for reggaeton pop music sung by cute sisters just quite yet.  i always LOVED this song, and listening to it now reminds me of how good it actually is...  (****side promo>>>>come hear me dj this song at real is a feeling this friday night in denver at the meadowlark!)))

flash forward years into the future, and our current post-pop cultural landscape sees nina sky singing over NYC based slo-mo female dark goth-hop duo, CREEP



seriously this is incredible. you can see the genuine excitement on nina sky's faces from them showcasing their talents to an entirely new audience.

this video sort of represents a lot of things for me, first off, the current state of the music industry and the blurring of what was once thought of as "mainstream" or "underground". there are no rules anymore and the walls are being brought down.... everything is on the same level field now.

we are living through a pretty remarkable moment in pop history and i am curious to see where this goes.

much love to creep...
