and die inside the club be the next river phoenix.
i mean correction. i mean heath ledger.
who would think an olsen twin would deal the deadly pleasure.”

graphic designer Logan Walters did a redesign of some classic wu-tang/associated artist albums, but with a blue note twist. the designs pay homage to classic blue note album covers from the 40s and up. i personally think these are really cool and feel like they would look great printed/framed/up on my walls…

so apparently the song “girl from ipanema” was written about this girl named Heloísa Pinheiro from rio de janiero in ‘64. shit’s crazy. it’s so weird having a face put to the girl from ipanema, youknow?? but yeah, she was also in playboy. with her daughter. in playboy. naked and stuff. so weird…

here’s the most popular, and my personal favorite version of the girl from ipanema.
performed by stan getz on sax, joão gilberto on guitar and his wife astrud singing

i probably shouldn’t be posting this. for a number of reasons. mostly personal reasons, morals, respect, youknow, things like that. but i’m posting this anyway. because the damn ‘anyone but him’ lyrics get stuck in my head all day and i find myself singing it out loud when nobody’s around. because i still have hope for kanye. even though he probably just got a huge boner when he heard mr. hudson’s awesome autotune skills and decided he needed to be a part of whatever the fuck this is. because that’s what he does. so fuck me. here’s a song or two by mr. hudson. and one two three of them features mr. west…

i’ve seen “mr. hudson ft. kanye west” and i’ve seen “kanye west ft. mr. hudson” and i’m not sure which one is correct. i don’t really care very much/at all, but i just wanted to point that out. thanks.

mr. hudson ft kanye west – anyone but him

kid cudi ft mr. hudson – everything is broken

kanye west ft mr. hudson – paranoid

mr. hudson ft kanye west – supernova
