Grown-ups! In-betweens! Children! baBIES!
1. Saturday night... How can I explain it? I'll take it frame by frame it: Mike and Chris are very, very, very focused right now. Shoot, yall, THEY ARE PLANNING SURPRISES FOR YOUR EARS. Like the man says: THIS IS SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR YOU. Each one has sent me mini-lil mixtapes just to prove their dedication, and the only way I can describe it is as the aural equivalent of mint chocolate chip ice cream.
Plus Savalas is the truth: Lots of pretty people, cheap drinks, loud music, whoa. Everyone should be in Brooklyn on Saturday. Especially if you haven't seen me in a little while. I am ready to do this. SO ICEY.
2. Fuck moving in stereo for a dollar, our dude Urn sends us the eBay link of the week: your very own MF Doom mask. Hopefully I'm beating out Ant at Via with this link. Speaking of, congrats on your jobless freedom my dudes! And go grab Ixley's mix.
3. They Are The Superlative Conspiracy. Shout to my man Johan for the kind words, and shout to Barcelona, WESC, and them dudes at Sportif for looking good. Hey yall we like your cloth! Deliverize it and we will advertize it!
4. MIA got her video for Bucky Done Gun sorted. Ryan over at Purpology gets it right: She takes a hoodied page out of LL’s book for the mike-from-the-sky introductory fight-ring shot but from there on it’s all gyrating and clinging onto chain-linked fences while looking like a B-girl from space that will kill you for looking at her the wrong way. Instead of coming off as a kinda awkward (yet tremendously confident) freak, Maya’s moves are now more in-tune with her music yet still raw and convincingly unchoreographed. Yeah, I know we're late on this, but you know.
5. San Diego cop racks up his fifth fatal shooting. Slow down, Bozarth, you're killin em. The four previous were ruled justified, but daaaaaamn. Scary.
6. Finally, serious: desperately relieved love to Sean H., Kate, Clare, Rob, Evie, Grandma, and Sean M. in London. Our hearts caught a midnight flight over the Atlantic and will remain with everyone over there... Love to you all.
