#songoftheday = DIE ANTWOORD: “BANANA BRAIN” + TOUR DATES
On their last few albums, Die Antwoord were a very gimmicky, almost comedic duo. As Ninja describes their new video for the single "Banana Brain, "A young girl sneaks out to a party with an unusual thug rap-raver boy and has the worst / best night...

Lately, new release day has been so ho-hum. The things I like tend to just creep out, sometimes on new release Friday, other times on the old new release Tuesday schedule…. Or on some arbitrary day of the week. But today there are lots of solid releases out. The first is Butch Walker’s...

#songoftheday = EARL SWEATSHIRT FEAT. KNXWLEDGE: “BALANCE”
OK, so this is more of an interlude type of track than an actual song, but it's the best thing I've heard all day, hence my dubbing it #songoftheday. What we have here is Earl Sweatshirt rapping about stuff and that's always plenty to satisfy me. ...

#songoftheday = Abstract – “Neverland” Featuring Ruth B
You never know where you'll find a good song. I went to Youtube to check out a video by a rapper a record label sent me the link for. Well, to be perfectly honest, it was rubbish. But then this one came on and immediately...

#songoftheday = WISE PROOF: “MORE MORE MORE MORE”
To be honest, I'm surprised that I'm really digging Wise Proof's "More More More More," since it's obviously very much in the trap vein and I've had just about all the trap I can stomach. (To me, trap was a cool new sound for about five minutes...
