currently listening to...
gym class heroes - the quilt - when i first got a listen to it i was totally in love with the album. but i'm beginning to realize it's a little too pop to be a truly great album, though several certified bangers and ballad make it an instant favorite of mine. i mean, i had to listen to it for 5 days straight (literally played nothing else on my ipod) before i found something wrong with it so it's definitely worth a listen.
murs - murs for president - certified hip - hop gold right here seriously. production is crazy. lyrics are catchy, but meaningful. everything you would expect from a murs album and more. a must buy. trust.

hip-hop theater
checked out danny hoch's one-man performance last night at hostos community college. for anyone not familiar with mr. hoch's work, you are truly missing out on something special. a veritable genius, he consistently offers a unique and insightful perspective on new york, the hip-hop community, and the people that comprise the big apple.
'taking over: the all-city tour' is no different. delivering comedic blow after comedic blow, danny hoch picks apart the economic expansion that has become a huge part of the lives of all who reside in new york. whether you are a native new yorker or have migrated here from outside parts, 'taking over' is totally relatable and thought-provoking.
