Music: Dizzee Rascal - "16 Bars" freestyle
Dizzee Rascal's a British rapper who's been around for several years. You may remember the catchy single "Fix Up, Look Sharp" from a few years ago.
Here he is freestyling on Lil Wayne's "Fireman" beat.

Video: Table rape is no joke
A dude got in trouble for boning a public table. Seriously.
In his defense though, that umbrella hole was completely exposed...the table was pretty much asking for it.

"Water, man. You heard the man. Water."
I think the real story here is that they tracked down Matthew McConaughey's long-lost brother.

Music: Tricked into listening to Beyonce
They tricked to me into purposefully listening to a Beyonce song. How?
Point out that it's produced by Polow Da Don ("Throw Some D's" & "London Bridge", amongst others)
Song's actually not half bad...despite the fact that I can't stand Beyonce's voice.

Preash: Happy Easter, Peeps
Marshmaaaallowy
Sorry about the lack of updates lately. Been busy moving, unpacking, etc. I have a life, too ALRIGHT!?
God, you're just like my ex.
Hopefully things will settle down in the next couple of days. Regardless, I don't think I have anything to do tomorrow (besides a fantasy baseball draft in the late afternoon)...so look for an ass-load of posts starting around noon-ish EST tomorrow.
I'm sleeping with a giant rock in front of my bedroom door tonight. (Christianity joke, anyone!?)
Music: Big Boi ft. Andre 3000 & Raekwon - Royal Flush
This song is sooooo tight. Big Boi's verse (it's the first verse) is ridiculous!
It's off of Big Boi's upcoming solo album Sir Luscious Left Foot.

Music: THE NEW DEATH CAB SINGLE!!!
The first single off of Death Cab for Cutie's upcoming album, Narrow Stairs, is out! And it's incredible.
It's called "I Will Possess Your Heart"
EPIC.
I'm already on my 5th consecutive listen. And that's saying a lot for an 8-and-a-half-minute song.
You'll recognize it as the song that was featured on the little studio teaser video on their website.
Here's some info and links to a higher-quality stream.
This album is gonna be unbelievable...
"Hi...we're good at music."

Music: Sara Bareilles - Little Voice
Alright, I'm man enough to admit it.
I can't get enough of this album: Sara Bareilles - Little Voice
Piano-driven pop tracks with a very authentic soulful bluesy sound. Think Sarah McLauchlan meets Bonnie Raitt.
You'll surely recognize her single "Love Song" from the Rhapsody commercial. It's got a modest 6.6 million views on YouTube.
That song by itself is great, but the rest of the tracks on Little Voice are equally impressive.
"Vegas" is the second track, after "Love Song", and is one of my favs. It's simultaneously depressing and uplifting (which would also be an accurate description for the album as a whole). It's gotta be tough to maintain a harmonious balance between those two conflicting emotions in one four-minute song.
"City" is another great track. The first verse starts with just vocals and piano, then it gradually builds with strings, drums, etc.
The last track, "Gravity", is a simple stripped-down ballad about a chick who can't fall out of love with a dude who she knows she needs to let go. WE'VE ALL BEEN THERE, HAVEN'T WE, SISTAS!?
Those are just a few highlights, but the entire album is great.
The production is immaculate, the writing is honest and it doesn't hurt that she's somewhat hot.
So, ladies, I can't really see any way that you couldn't love Little Voice, unless you just aren't into good music.
And dudes, if you can conjure up the courage to put your balls on the shelf for 49 minutes and listen to a chick sing great songs about failed love and unmet expectations, you will thoroughly enjoy this album.
Now I'm gonna go draw a bubble bath, grab my latest Nicholas Sparks novel, and pour myself a glass of chardonnay.
Newsish: No Lindsay Lohan sex tape
So it turns out that it wasn't Lindsay Lohan in that rumored sex tape.

Music: Swizz Beatz ft. Drag-On - "Hard Knocks"
Yeah, that's right...Drag-On's back. I was a pretty big fan of Drag-On back when Ruff Ryderz was big.
The fact that the chorus and verses are so disjointed on this track bothered me when I listened to it the first couple of times. But now that I've gotten used to it, I can kinda see the chorus as a laid-back build-up to the monstrous throwback-ish beat during the verses.
Anyway, peep it.

Preash: Last Night in Oklahoma
Last night was my much anticipated going-away party.
It was scheduled to begin at 8:00 but, in typical fashion, Work Dave pulled a flake-tastic move and called me at 6:00 to tell me he needed to nap and 8:00 is too early and lets make it 9:30.
So I show up at his house at 9:30 and again, in typical fashion, he's not ready yet.
After 8 or 9 "I'm sorry, dude"s we finally get to the Dugout at like 10:30. There's a $5 cover because there's a live band (which was suprisingly good and the lead singer was smokin'...in that sexy emo tatted-up bleach-blonde way).

Eff.
Some dude and our bartender who Lizzy once made out with
Jen, myself and Lizzy

Smile, girls
Gangsta
The rare double-thumb-pick
One of the several potions I drank
That's a girl on the left...she's a lezbo we befriended
Lizzy took a photo of herself...apparently her fav pose is to cock her head slightly to the left
Work Dave and the lezbo's best friend (who is pretty much bi)
Jen biting her tongue...that's a first
Work Dave droppin' knowledge on Joe
Joe is a brilliant editor/photog...he created "Electric", perhaps the best TV-news-b-roll-based music video EVER...hit yer horn
Work Dave's brother, Ben, with future-sister-in-law Lizzy
Suddenly Lizzy gets shy...but only for a sec...
Her hair tastes like cotton candy and sunbeams
Spittin' game at a chick for 10 minutes...then she casually mentions her husband, who's serving in Iraq...
...it was like that ep of MTV True Life with the chick who married her high school sweetheart who went off to war and she ended up regretting getting married. She kept implying that she was gonna divorce him soon. Still a no-no in my book, though.
Joe is really tall...like 6'8" tall
The lezbo and her semi-GF dance on a table
She's drinking piss on the rocks...what a party animal!
Wazzzaaaaaa...!
Orange is the new gay!
Work Dave's backwards cigarette is not a clever a joke...he's just dumb
Apparently I'm not the only one who wants to lick Lizzy
Subtlety is key in the lesbian lifestyle
My thumb is appalling
I'm very photogenic
Joe my goodness!
I forgot that I wasn't wearing my grill
Work Dave and his girlfriend bone partner close friend Lizzy
