May Playlist

These are songs I'm listening to now regardless of how old/new they are. Some of these bands are fresh others have had their albums out for months!

The Duke Spirit - "The Step and the Walk" sounds a bit mod, and a bit bluesy.

NASA - "Gifted" Not a huge Kanye West fan, but this track features Kanye West, Lykke Li and Santogold...so obviously Lykke Li and Santogold overpower Kanye and his ego. I have been playing this on my computer on repeat for at least a month now, its so catchy!

The Cribs - "Men's Needs" This song was my summer anthem and I have found myself listening to it again. The track has a great guitar riff and the lyrics are smart and sarcastic. Its one of those songs that keeps playing over and over in your head hours after you have listened to it. "Because a man's needs, a man's needs are full of greed! Are full of greed! A man's needs are lost on me...A girl's needs, are girl's needs, just don't agree with a man's needs...uh oh uh oh"

Kate Nash - "Men's Needs" Covers are rarely as good as the original song, however Kate Nash happens to be one of the only musicians whose cover songs can rival the quality of the original.

Kings of Leon -"Sex on Fire" Its quite a sexy song.

B.o.B. - "Hip Hop Ain't Dead (The Future)" finally a rapper who actually does "keep it real."
