Link Deuce: Kreayshawn, The French, Sugar Water event, Boston is ugly, for assh0les

What the fuck are you looking at, kid? What are you a fucking hardon?

Here's the part of the show where I just repost things that I already talked about on Facebook. That's called being a green blogger I think.  Let's see...


Kreayshawn news!

Everyone likes her over here right? Over there. Where are you guys? 

Couple new joints, as they say, from her this week. First up is this remix of Gucci Gucci from Long Jawns and Bobby LaBeats via Mad Decent. I like the part with the cat meow.



Here's a NEW TRACK  from Kreay Kreay with Theophilus London, who you can imagine is probably psyched he got to work with our girl. You can just hear it in his voice.  


This is like the rap equivalent of missing a sick kegger in the woods behind school because you had to go to your little sister's gymnastic performance. The beat here is real niiice and slow and wet, but girl barely bothered to even show up for this one. MAYBE I LIKE HER BETTER NOW. Kreayshawn is a lot cuter when she's bad. 




Boston is mean



. Go add me as a friend if you're into getting your newsfeed bombed by shitty content all day. Or for fuck's sake you layabouts. 

Survey: Boston least friendly city
BOSTON (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - Boston is known for many things, including great seafood, a rich history and our love of sports. But apparently being pleasant isn't one of them, as Boston was named the least friendly city. via


The people behind this survey can go fuck themselves. That news report fucking blows too. And believe me, I know about hacky reporting.

Everything about that link bums me out. Two psychologists did a survey? Who were they? Never says. Another one from Boston College said something to the Boston Globe. Who was it? Whatever. 



Boston is ugly

We're also the worst dressed city in the world! According to GQ anyway. MORE LIKE GAY QWEEYAH MAGAZINE RIGHT GUYS GO FAHCKIN BRUINS.

I'm going to quote it here at length because I'd like to argue with it. I can't, because it's all true, but I'd like to. Can't always get what you want though can you?
1. Boston
Boston is like America's Bad-Taste Storm Sewer: all the worst fashion ideas from across the country flow there, stagnate, and putrefy. To be fair, it's hard to be a fashion capital when half of your population is made up of undergraduate hoodie monsters, including those unfortunate coeds who don't realize that leggings-as-pants were supposed to be paired with tops large enough to conceal their cameltoes. Yet when they graduate, they can wear their Uggs and still fit in at the country's largest frat party on Lansdowne behind Fenway, where they can take breaks between body shots to admire just how long boot-cut jeans can stay in style in one place. And any classy lady from Beantown is bound to be impressed by formal sportswear. "But Boston is the epicenter of prep style!," you say? That's true, but it's with a little extra that ends up ruining everything: Khakis!—with pleats. Boat shoes!—with socks. Knit ties!—actually, no one in Boston seems to have ever seen one of these. For the more proletarian-minded, there are the modest little burgs of Cambridge and Somerville, where everyone dresses like the proprietor of his or her very own meth lab. If you wonder how a people can live like this, well, it's Jurassic Park for fashion troglodytes: life finds a way.—John B. Thompson

Harris
Speaking of Boston, an old Boston indie favorite, Harris, is reuniting this week for the first time in years. Here's their best song. Still sounds good, bbz. Cool video too.


Poorly dressed my ass


This guy's ass, actually. Spotted him at the Bastille Day festival in Cambridge the other day. That's the most French bro I've seen in a while. Hey, does anyone know what a French townie accent sounds like?




Also spotted this at the Bastille Day thing. Spreading the brand, babe. OK, so I wrote it, but still. ABB. Always be blogging. Or is it ABGIRLC? Always be generating IRL content? Either one. It is a good Cuban though over at Chez Henri.

Free sugar water events
u look good 2 bb
For some reason Vitamin Water has been throwing parties every night at this art space in Boston, and they've had some pretty cool stuff going on. The only thing I like better than sugar, or water, is when you combine the two. And free stuff. And art about corporate brands on the walls.




I used a filter on that photo you guys. I'm not really yellow and neither is the world. Unless you ask my homeboy William Carlos Williams, who said something like 

The stain of love
Is upon the world.
Yellow, yellow, yellow,
It eats into the leaves,
Smears with saffron
The horned branches that lean
Heavily
Against a smooth purple sky.
LOL What did he know? 

On the topic of literature, briefly, how about when a novelist includes song lyrics in the middle of a story? Like maybe one of the characters is a musician, or they're singing a song, and dude prints them on there on the page for us to read? NOPE. #skipthatshit




See what I mean? Vitamin Water event.  Dirty Dishes played. Did I mention we like them?  Vitamin Water is more fun to pronounce like a British person. I should probably make sure you know that.  Here they are .






Viva Viva played too. Here they are doing One is the Loneliest Number .



Anyone who doesn't like this post is dead to me and has betrayed our entire family. Fuck you.

That GQ List is silly. If they did a top 40 best-dressed cities, half of the same cities would be on it. Miami is the 7th worst-dressed? Psh. Thongz rule.

Oh yeah, and I skipped that poem like some fake song lyrics in a book.

said...

Haha, meta right?

Also, on any list, "...that you've heard of." is pretty much always implied. Like the HOTTEST WOMEN IN THE WORLD in Maxim or whatever and it's like, Jennifer Love Hewitt or Cameron Diaz? Uh. You sure bro?

No foolin, last summer when I was working a Boston food truck dressed like Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island if she were the proprietor of her own meth lab, the editor of the Japanese fashion mag Fudge took a pic of me that appeared in their "best dressed around the world" or some shit issue. Suck my dick GQ
