MUSIC THREAD

I listed to James Hunter's newest release in B&N the other day. Completely dug it.

Keb 'Mo is awesome. Love that guy.

 

Ya'll should check for James Morrison.

 

Flipping through XM, I find out there's a Young Dro, a Young Joc, a Young Jeezy, and they all suck worse than Young MC.

Seriously, Shoulder Lean? That's only marginally lazier than Lean Back. Which makes me wonder how Fat Joe even got up after leaning back.

 

This may have been mentioned or posted before, so it it has, my apologies, but for all of you who dug "Crazy" this summer, you should check out the other versions of it.

Here is one by Ray LaMontagne, which is pretty cool if you dig his stuff:

Here is Nelly Furtado's acoustic version, which is slowed down and not bad either:

I love the Kings of Leon first album. How does the second compare? And, admitting my cluelessness here, is there a third?

 

2nd album is far superior. it's more raw, more unrefined, yet more challenginig and mature. it's an actual vision. and it rawks.

 

mos def's new album drops next Tuesday

 

Anyone have thoughts on Audioslave's newest album?

 

Young Jeezy >>>>>> Young Dro >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Yung Joc

 

I know that's supposed to be the release date, but I can't imagine how Mos would drop an album without a single, no advance, no nothing ... I haven't heard shit from him (other than the thing at the VMAs) since he said he was working on a new album.

In other news: The Lupe album leaked yesterday.

 

Is that out now? I've been waiting on that and on the new Ludacris.

 

i got that lupe about a month ago. not bad. some good songs on there.
