While we was busy mourning J-Dilla...

So where tha fuck was I that I didn't hear that Harold Hunter had died?

50

You know this kid. Especially if you've seen "Kids" by Larry Clark.
Apparently he died of a heart attack at the age of 31, back on February 17. He was a God among skaters and by all accounts, one of the nicest people on the face of the earth. R.I.P.

"You hear that (clap clap clap). You hear that?"

Robyn

Anybody remember Robyn? She was a dance pop act a few years ago that had a minor hit and then went away. Apparently she went back to Sweden and discovered the Black in her. Here she is (the blonde one) covering Saul Williams "List of Demands" with Jenny Wilson




Apparently, she also covers Prince's "Jack U Off" and has a new song called "Konichiwa Bitches" (Chappelle reference, if you didn't know). I usually find this sort of shit annoying, since it's usually done ironically by bland indie bands, but the fact that she's Swedish makes it all so adorable...plus she is kinda hot.
