The Singles Bar: Gorillaz (feat. Andre 3000 and James Murphy)’s “DoYaThing”

by Drew on Feb 23, 2012 • 1 Comment

This collaboration between genre-hopping anime band Gorillaz and fellow spaced-out geniuses Andre 3000 (better known as the guy from Outkast wearing all that purple) and James Murphy (better known as now-defunct LCD Soundsystem’s main maestro and treasurer of the Justin Vernon Foundation For Frontmen Who Do NOT Share A Name With Their Band) has been gabbed about for several weeks now. No, this isn’t indicative of a full-scale album-length collaboration–although if it were, I’d stop waking up in the middle [...]

bLISTerd: Happy Birthday, MTV!: The Top 10 Videos of the ’00s

by Big Money on Aug 26, 2011 • 1 Comment

Missy Elliott works it, Isaac Brock and Modest Mouse try on funny mustaches, and Fiddy parties like it’s yo’ berf day (AKA #20-#11) here . 10. Here it Goes Again | OK Go (2006) It all started with some treadmills. Add in a synchronized choreography routine (not very easy to do on treadmills, mind you) and a C-list power-pop band turns into those guys! Do you think the members of OK Go are pissed because they’ve turned into something of a [...]

The Viewfinder: Lenny Kravitz’s “Stand”

by Big Money on Jul 19, 2011 • No Comments

Much as I enjoy his music (most of the time, anyway), Lenny had always struck me as sort of self-important and humorless. Well, after twenty-something years of rock stardom, Lenny tries his hand at comedy in the video for “Stand”, the first official single from his upcoming project, Black & White America. Must have been his well-received turn in “Precious” that got him bit by the acting bug. There appears to be some serious “Let’s Make a Deal” type shenanigans [...]

The Top 40 Emcees of All Time: #8 & #7

by Big Money on Jun 16, 2011 • 8 Comments

Kool G. Rap and Nas finished 10 and 9. Who’s next up on the list? 8. Andre 3000 Representing: Atlanta It took a long time before I was able to appreciate OutKast. Not to say I was a purist, but…well, I was a purist. No one from outside New York was as good as artists from New York. Shit, prior to OutKast, rap from the SouthEast was booty music a la Luke.  To this day, I don’t think Southernplayalisticadillacmusic is [...]
