I Have Tried In My Way To Be Free

Leonard Cohen is the fucking man.

Get your filthy little hands on this album.

All I Want To Do Is Spread My Creative Wings And Soar

Judging by the pop culture references, this thing is a million years old. Since I've been living under a rock, I didn't see it until today.

If you've worked more than ten minutes in advertising or visual design, you've met people like this. Hell, at one point, you might have been this guy. Kids, if you insist on a "creative" career, don't be a creative department douchebag.

Big ups to Magda for the link.

I've Got Blisters On My Heart

I need to start reading Pitchfork again. Yesterday, they posted a new track from Ugly Casanova that I've been listening to all morning. They also posted a pretty nice remix that Sonic Youth's less adventurous guitar player did for Crystal Castles.

Gotta go. I have a meeting that starts in five minutes.

I'm Gonna Kill That Traffic

Download this tape ASAP. If you're a fan of Lil B/The Pack/good music in general, you probably already have it. If you haven't, do yourself a favor and download it.

I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend.

21st Century Schizoid Man

Good ass job (via Nah Right).

Lil B Rules, OK?

I don't claim to be an expert on music. I do, however, know what I like and dislike. That said, Lil B might be my favorite (relatively) new rapper. The guy is doing what every serious artist needs to do. He works on his craft on a regular basis and isn't afraid to share his work with the public.

What I don't get is why some writers who profess to enjoy "real" hip-hop are hating on him. In an era where some rappers are still under the mistaken assumption that music is one big cash grab and that they can still get away with clichéd bullshit, B is really refreshing. Sure, he has songs about hoes; but he also has music that sounds like a collaboration between Ariel Pink and Sensational. For that alone, he's okay in my book.

End of rant. Here's a photo of two nice looking girls enjoying a tender moment.

This Is Me Saying "Hello."

Hi, my name is Sean. I'm a pretty normal guy. I like sports, music, and girls. I also find myself in a state of moral outrage most of the time. Maybe I'm more sensitive than I'd care to admit. Maybe it's because I live in a fallen world. Maybe it's because I work in advertising and I get the chance to work with idiots and sociopaths on a daily basis. I don't know. This is my blog.
