Had to do it, only because it was such a good year in music. So here's a murderous look back on a year that made me tell women i was a jerk.
White Denim "Let's Talk About It"
Catchy indy rock jus good enough to make the cut but bland enough that I won't "talk about it"
Pac Div "Mayor"
A great song that inspired civic duty, patriotism, and sideshows among the less fortunate Oakland youth.
Grizzly Bear "2 Weeks"
Fly Union Feat Big Sean "Poed Up"
The song that really made me fuck with both flydotu and bigsean, as an added bonus, the bromies at Heart&Sole make an appearance.
Lil Wayne "Basically Any Song Off No Ceilings"
Classic verses from wayne always a must, no homo
2 way tie between Rusko "Slow Nails" and Datsik & Excision "Swagger"
but they're on the same rusko mix as 1 track so it counts. I remember the overwhelming rush of euphoric adrenaline and confusion especially, as I tried to figure out what to do with my arms, legs, and torso when Rusko dropped this live exclusive at B-Side.
and the bass speaks for itself
Eugene McGuiness "The Fonz"
The Fonz says there's nothing wrong with being wrong, but was he right? I asked myself this question a lot this year.
Digiraatii "Heads Will Roll Remix"
Big year for these guys
Rob Roy "Carmencita"
Find the studio version, get a pair of nice headphones, shut the fuck up and listen
Lupe Fiasco "The National Anthem"
This was a very easy decision to make
