The Bird & the Bee, “Don’t Stop the Music” [Rihanna Cover]
This week’s quick-win chill generator: The Bird & The Bee re-imagine Rihanna’s nightclub hookup as some kind of eerie blue-light ’70s movie rendezvous, as scored by Kate Bush. Hooking up has never sounded so perilous.
Jamie Foxx ft. T-Pain, Busta Rhymes & Lil Wayne, “Blame It” [Remix]
What’s going to be just as fascinating as Lil Wayne’s ascent is watching him run out of clever sentence constructions and beginning his steady, inevitable decline. His verse on this remix is the first step in that direction.
Kanye West vs. Luniz, “I Got 5 On It” [DJ Fabian Heartless Short Edit]
Kanye gets mixed-up with mid-’90s rap also-rans Luiz, for a track that should satisfy anyone aggravated that 808s didn’t have enough rapping.
Andrew WK, “Bohemian” [Yumi Katsuragi Cover]
It doesn’t matter that you won’t know the J-pop source material (we didn’t); this gonzo fist-pumping number will fit your next Atari party just fine.
Hayley Davis, “Sex on Fire” [Kings of Leon Cover]
It’s official: no matter the context, these lyrics will always sound ridiculous.
