Donald Glover released a new track that samples or maybe reconstructs Kanye's All of the Lights (Break) and as per usual, it's pretty fantastic. Plenty of fantastic jokes. If you haven't heard i'm gonna link a couple other tracks of his that are good to go, in the order they were released.
quick note: the break link is to the mp3 download from Donald's site not a direct download or like the others a streaming jam
As for Wye Oak, they're a duo from baltimore that are really awesome. the drummer is also the bassist via a synthesizer and the front-woman's got a hell of voice. I'm posting "For Prayer" which is off of a previous album and a live performance of "Civilian" which is the title track off their latest album. The album version is a little better, but the live acoustic really does it justice.
A song by Tally Hall that I had never heard. If you don't know these guys, they're a pretty legitimate band from Michigan. The first album of theirs, Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum (link below), was a hit, really good stuff. They got some following after a few of their songs were featured in The O.C. Their new album comes out on June 21st and I'm definitely looking forward to it. So check these guys out. They also like to make little videos and have an internet show that you can find on their website.
I don't know why I'd admit to this, but the first time I ever heard this song was on Grey's Anatomy. Whoops. Anyways, it's a good song. Ch-ch-ch-check it out!
