RIP Adam Yauch
The New York Times has a thoughtful and touching obituary for Adam Yauch, founding member of the Beastie Boys. I always appreciated deeply how they transitioned from party-hungry kids to socially conscious, feminist men and music-makers.
Ill Communication was the first compact disc (!!) I purchased and I would sit for hours in my room, reversing and fast forwarding and reversing and fast forwarding in order to transcribe and memorize every line of that album. I can still, at any cue, recite that shit.

While we’re on the topic of sick videos, this new track from Diplo featuring Nicky Da B (who truthfully I had never heard of before) was kind of mesmerizing. And the song really inspires one to “put their back into it.” I mean, handstand ass shake? That is jaw-droppingly ambitious and requires a certain set of muscles that many of us just do not have.

I recently remembered this absolutely sick video by well-known photographer Pieter Hugo and was recommending it to some colleagues tonight. Good lord Spoek Mathambo and Hugo respectively kill it with execution on the song and the visuals.

While we’re on the topic, this here is a beautiful video for Shabazz Palaces’ latest single, “Belhaven Meridian.” Shabazz Palaces is fronted by Ishmael Butler who you might recall was one-third of Digable Planets.
