Today Is the Day I Finally Trashed All Those Drake MP3s

SEARCH FOR: DRAKEDecember 27, 2009: The day I imported Drake's "So Far Gone" into my iTunes.
June 17, 2010: The day I finally deleted it, because it's really not good! And it's annoying! And I don't like it at all! And every time it comes on my iTunes on shuffle, I fast-forward! What is the deal with Drake and his popularity? It's kind of garbage!

this is a way better holiday than flag day and suggests the need for a yearly day to clear out all the stupid shit in one's itunes that has accumulated. (how did all this katy perry get here?)

it really is absolute shit

Tumblr Morning has given way to Spreadsheet Illustration Afternoon.

Sigh.

Slava (#216)

Meh, I like the new album. Minus the three or four songs he threw in for the ladies.

Flashman (#418)

It's the abs.

While you're at it, trash that apostrophe on Rustin Man's name.

I suggest reading Pitchfork's and then Andrew Noz' NPR review of Thank_Me_Later. NPR is too street for Drake! Drake is the new Asher Roth!

Major Lazer next to the Mars Volta. Be still my heart!

My heart: also in need of stilling.

Let's start a Facebook page!

"DeepOmega likes Choire's Visible iTunes Artists"

I really like the one that gets all the plays, the Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man selection from Out of Season. I'm guessing the track is Show.

This post needs more "skip count" data.

Sounds like you're chair-throwin' made, Choire.

More importantly, there are no artists that begin with letters E-L in your library? Please to explain.

This is an epiphany much like the one I had recently where I decided to raid the shoebox of antiquated Jewel-Boxes for some forgotten hits of yore.

I must've been in the mood for Post-Bauhausy comparisons because I pulled out Peter Murphy's Deep and David J's Songs from Another Season- Both of which used to get heavy rotation in the cheap JVC deck.

Deep ff'ing rocked my stray gray hairs off, although the lyrics were bad-poetry-jam-cringefuls-but give me a heavy riff or two and I can ignore that.

Poor David J, however, fared very poorly. By the time I got to "Gotta get your- fingers! in the grease!", my fingers could only agitate desperately for directions to the nearest fucking eject button.

"Poor David J, however, fared very poorly" = Did I mention that he performed VERY POORLY at being POOR. (facepalm)

Synth-y hip-hop seems to work better as LA rental car jams for me. Last time I went I downloaded all these auto-tune tracks I heard on the radio and then deleted them a few weeks after I got back to Manhattan.

Mike Riggs (#3,658)

I love this album.

Mount_Prion (#290)

I did the same to Kanye years ago. I couldn't stand hearing Bernie Mac yell about college every time that shit came up on rando.

tigolbitties (#2,150)

does dave bry co-sign this? if so then i will be sure not to pick it up!

Hobbesian (#255)

I would also like to know what Bry and Cho have to say about this!

mickeyitaliano (#2,202)

Remember when "The Onion" or someone similar would stop people in Union Square Park and ask what is on their Ipod playlist? This could have been you, Choire.
