Beats! (sort of)

I’m giving the RPM Challenge a shot. The idea is to make an album (at least 10 tracks) in a month. Of course, they picked the shortest month of the year. So far I’m 1/5th of the way there!

“Never Felt This Way”

“Cave Party”

Kanye has lost his mind

Not that he’s been completely normal and sane these past few years… but this video that he posted on his vimeo site a week ago is pretty damn “baffling.”

OK, “Martin.” I think I’m going to listen to the Freshmen Adjustment mixtape again.
