Pretty Much Amazing’s Listening Booth is where we get to talk about our favorite new songs! Yay!
This Is Ivy League – The Richest Kids
Is this music or is this a mere exploitation of a hyped demographic *cough* Vampire Weekend *cough*? I’m glad to say, this is music. Real. Good. Music.
Wyclef Jean – Fast Car (remix feat. Lupe Fiasco)
At first, I thought this was just a new Lupe Fiasco track. Warning to those who want to add Cool Youg Lou to your remix team: He’s a verse hogger.
G-Unit – Grimey
In this new track from the upcoming G-Unit mixtape, 50 Cent confesses to being dirty, grimy, and filthy, but doesn’t go on to admit himself as a tired MC.
R. Kelly – Hairbraider
Obviously seeking to put claims about his kinky eccentricities to rest, R. Kelly has written this song about the qualities he looks for in a good hairdresser (chief among them: superior stripping ability).
And now moving onto our daily downloads. These are free and legal. So download away.
Foo Fighters – Keep The Car Running
Jens Lekman – Friday Night At The Drive-In Bingo
Athlete – Hurricane (Camp America Remix)
Justice – DANCE (Paste Black Remix)
