"Monster" by Kanye West, ft. Bon Iver, Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, and Jay-Z.
A great appetizer, part one of the five-part teaser platter with Jay-Z (an EP due soon). If this is just the warm up, the coma-inducing awesomeness of Kanye's forthcoming album will ruin us all. Download

Nothing is happening.
Apparently all celebrity deaths, concert mishaps, stolen gear, publicity stunts, weirdo acts of God or other have taken a prolonged respite in the Caribbean (or just the Hamptons). Most of you know that this is the driest week of the year, so bear with us as we are bored to death waiting for something to happen while the fat cats are sipping Margaritas and congratulating themselves for another year of expensing their underwear.
Lil' Wayne is out of jail on November 5th.
New 10-track release due in September (
I Am Not A Human Being), and rumors of
Tha Carter IV dropping the day he gets out (with a welcome back concert to follow). WHOA. [

Oh yeah, I guess the Emmy's were kind of important or something.
For the music fan, nothing new to report. Bucky Gunts is all you need to know. Jimmy Fallon playing guitar can be left at the door, thanks.
But a big hearty congrats to big winners,
Mad Men,
Modern Family, and
Breaking Bad, all shows I really dig.
