Patrick Stump

Lead singer of Fall Out Boy, Patrick Stump, is in the process of writing/performing/producing his first solo album. If the album sounds anything like this intro then I'm down.

I own this movie and it's soundtrack.The song that's being played is Mark Safan's "Win in the end". Epic. I run to this at the park. Teen Wolf sun. Teen Wolf.

If "Cool" had a sound, look, etc.



Let's have a chat about the word "cool". Think about it. You can kind of imagine if the word "cool" had a look what it would be. It would be JFK riding on his boat wearing wayfarers. It would be Keith Richards stoned out of his mind playing the licks of "Start me up". It would be Marvin Gaye singing the national anthem like he was literally on fire. What if "cool" had a sound though? Imagine if the word "cool" took human form and walked through your front door. This is the sound you would hear right before "cool" entered.

"We Livin Life Everyday Like Were In The Sun"




Wiz Khalifa--"This Plane"

Were living life everyday like were in the Sun. No hate will be found on this blog or within me. I just felt a rant coming on. I love when people compliment me and the ourplanes team on our music taste or fashion. I also love when they don't get what we do or how we live life and proceed to hate. When you hate I know it'sjust because your scared. You love what we do and how we do it. Your just too scared to take those Uggs off and walk barefooted on the sun with us drinking horchata in this bitch. You see the haters are actually undercover lovers. It's okay though, live through us. You already know we livin like we in the sun all day and night fool.

OH, and QUIT HATING ON LADY GAGA. PEOPLE ARE LIKE, "WHY DOES SHE DRESS SO WEIRD?" "WHY CANT SHE DRESS LAME LIKE US?" SHE'S A POP ICON. SHE'S NOT ABOUT TO DRESS LIKE YOUR 3RD GRADE TEACHER, YOU LAMES. OK, BYE.

fun.

I told Phil that this would be my first post, so here we go...
fun. would definitely have to be one of my new favorite bands. They are an Indie pop band that hail from New York City who released their first album, Aim and Ignite, back in August. They have been praised by the likes of Mark Hoppus and Hayley Williams and only stand to gain more as time goes on. If you like awesome, catchy Indie pop music, then check them out.

KANYE WEST

"WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE, REMEMBER THE FEARLESS, REMEMBER THE DREAMERS, REMEMBER THOSE WHO REPRESENT THE GHETTO...THE FAIRY TALE OF NOTHING TO SOMETHING. I'M BRIEFLY SADDENED BY NEGATIVE COMMENTS, BUT I HAVE TO REMEMBER THOSE PEOPLE ARE SCARED, INCAPABLE OR JUST PLAIN IDIOTS. WE ARE THE FUCKING ROCK STARS BABY. NO COCAINE, JUST LIFE MY NIGGAS!! NO COCAINE, JUST LIFE! IT'S FUNNY TO ME WHEN FASHION BLOGGERS DOWN OUR OUFITS AND THEN SUPER JOCK OUTLANDISH SHIT ON THE RUNWAY BUT THEN THEY DRESS MAD PRUDE AND DON'T LIVE FASHION. WE LIVE IT MAN. FUCK THAT, WE LIVE IT!!! WE LIVE IT SO HARD PEOPLE LIVE THROUGH US! WE REPRESENT YOUR INNER SPIRIT!! THE CHILD IN US ALL, THE BRUTAL HONESTY, THE NAIVETY, THE BRAVE WARRIOR, THE ADRENALINE THAT ALLOWS A MOTHER TO LIFT A CAR IF HER CHILD WAS TRAPPED UNDER IT! REMEMBER, THERE WAS A TIME WHEN EVERYBODY DISSED MICHAEL JACKSON EVERY CHANCE THEY COULD. IMAGINE THE PRESSURE OF BEING A TRUE ICON. VERY FEW HUMAN BEINGS ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE CONSTANT HATE!!! IF WE DON'T DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS THE SHIT, YOU BEAT US UP VERBALLY AND MENTALLY, LIKE A CATHOLIC SCHOOL TEACHER BEATING A CREATIVE STUDENT INTO SUBMISSION. I CAN HEAR YOU SCREAMING 'COLOR INSIDE THE LINES!!!' WELL FUCK YOUR COLORING BOOK, COLOR BY NUMBERS APPROACH TO LIFE. AT THE END OF THE DAY WHO ARE WE HURTING??? OH "THE NEW BLACK???" SINCE BARACK IS PRESIDENT BLACKS DON'T LIKE FUR COATS, RED LEATHER, AND FRIED CHICKEN ANY MORE?! WHEN YOU TRULY UNDERSTAND CULTURAL SETTINGS, BOUNDARIES, AND OUR MODERN DAY CASTE SYSTEMS, THEN YOU CAN FEEL THE GLORY AND PAIN FROM THE DAYS OF KINGS IN AFRICA TO THE NEW KINGS OF THE MEDIA. LET THE BALL PLAYERS DANCE AFTER THEY SCORE! IT'S LIFE MY NIGGAS, IT'S LIFE! REMEMBER CLOTHING IS A CHOICE. WE WERE BORN NAKED!!! FRESH IS AN OPINION, LOVE IS OBJECTIVE, TASTE IS SELECTIVE, AND EXPRESSION IS MY FAVORITE ELECTIVE. NO MORE POLITICS OR APOLOGIES!!!

Lionel Richie "Running With The Night"



So I left my iPod hookup thingy in my Mother's car, and I was stuck with the radio on the way to class yesterday. Well I had one cd in my disc changer. It happened to be Lionel Richie's greatest hits. Random as hell. So I go through the hits everyone knows, "dancing on the ceiling", "hello", etc., and naturally I get tired of those. Then it hit me. I let this track play on. The synthesizers really struck a nerve. Shit started sounding epic. I'm thinking this is great. I played it like 1000 times yesterday. It felt like the first time I heard Hall & Oate's "Out of touch". Richie ain't playing.
*this video is hilarious by the way

One of Alabama's finest: Yelawolf




Alabama hasn't had many rappers to be proud of ( and I know because I'm from the state). Albeit one-sided, we have Rich Boy. Now we have Alabama native Yelawolf, and he reps for Alabama proudly (unlike Gucci Mane who hides he's from Alabama). He comes with the co-signs the other freshman have, but one of them really impressed me. He has a song with Raekwon the Chef himself on his mix-album "Trunk Muzik". Raekwon doesn't take his collaborations lightly. On the song with the chef, he talks about how black and white southern culture are united a lot of times through the music. Yelawolf said it best himself, "my sound is a mix between Lynard Skynard & Outkast." I agree Yelawolf.

Check out his mix-album "Trunk Muzik" here. via: 2dopeboyz.com

dope fact: He has two aliases, "Catfish Billy" and "Ricky Bobby"

Vampire Weekend's "Contra"



Vampire Weekend's sophomore album "Contra" is quite the record. It's full of raw emotion, and soul that was missing in the first album. They've done what so many artists fail to do. They've perfected their sound on the second album without recreating the first album. You can hear the album on their myspace page. Quite amazing it is, quite amazing.
