The Making of Act II

The homie Andres aka Sweeney Kovar just sent me this over AIM a bit ago. He's over in South Africa right now helping document the recording process of Jay Electronica's highly anticipated and long overdue next release. On the real, this shit is gonna be good. Oh yeah and y'all need to look up LaTonya Givens' past work. I know I'm a sucker for soulful black female singers but seriously, she's got an amazing voice.

Rather than be ridiculously cliché and post some uber-hetero love shit because it's Valentine's Day, I need to flex some words about this song I've had on repeat since first hearing it on Gilles Peterson's weekly show. If anything, I strongly believe James Blake is just building up another moniker similar to him and his Harmonimix alias. Not that using aliases is ever a bad thing, I'm just waiting to see all the different theories come out of the forums in trying to ID or learn more about the artist who made this song. But whatever, this song is good.

Red Bull Music Academy 2011 - What's Really Good™

These videos are entirely self-explanatory. Apparently, there's a 17-city tour across Canada with these dudes and some others, all done up by the RBMA and I can't help but love Red Bull even more for this. There need to be more next level videos capturing these live process aesthetics. Shout outs to my Roku box!
