Significant Music

So, if you didn't catch the last post, which happened to be too illegal to survive, I tried to turn you guys onto Blitzen Trapper (check out "Furr" and "Wild Mountain Nation"), Fleet Foxes ("White Winter Hymnal"), and Phoenix's epic album gem "Love Like a Sunset". Now that I can't post that stuff, here's some other lovely audio:

First up: Kid Cudi teams up with Kanye West and Common on a chopped up version of Lady Gaga's "Poker Face," now with Gaga singing the new song's name, "I Poke Her Face". Great laid-back vibe on the track, with some great verses from some of the best rapping today. Kanye gives little Asher Roth a shout-out too:

"Hold up, born in '88, how old is that? Old enough / I got seniority with the sorority, so that explains why I love college / getting brain in the library 'cause I love knowledge / when you use your medulla oblongata"

Second, sticking with the Asher Roth love, a bonus track off his album just leaked featuring Beanie Sigel, and if this is any indication of what is being cut from the album dropping 4/20, we can expect a really clean set of tracks with cool hooks, great lyricism, and great production. The next white rapper to hit mainstream might have a shot after all:
