Kanye + Planet Earth = Amazing?

Apparently so. Check out the new video for "Amazing."

Kanye West - Amazing (feat. Young Jeezy)

Radiofoot

Have been listening to this a lot again in the last few days. Probably their best song. One of my overall favorite songs too... despite Thom Yorke's lazy f-ing eye. If he wasn't so weird, Radiohead would actually be more likable, generally speaking. Apparently both Kanye and Miley Cyrus don't like him cause he dissed them by ignoring them. Go figure... Kanye and Miley Cyrus have something in common besides huge egos.

Radiohead - Let Down

EDITOR' NOTE: The Pun Spot does not discriminate against people with "lazy eyes." In fact, our editor in chief has a "lazy eye." So there.

Pakistani-British Björk

I'm really digging Bat For Lashes these days. You should, too. Check out the live cover of the Kings of Leon song.

Bat For Lashes - Use Somebody (Kings of Leon Cover)



Also, check out the first single from her new album, Two Suns.

Bat For Lashes - Daniel



Shout out to Hilal/Daily Cherez for the recommendation.

Maybe they'll sell a few more albums this time

Check out the hot new single from The Clipse which will be featured on Till The Casket Drops (due out later this year).

The Clipse - Kinda Like A Big Deal (feat. Kanye West)

Electronic music (?) video collection

Not sure that all of these qualify as electronic music, but they all feel like they're in the same genre.

As some of you readers may remember, I had a post about Röyksopp a couple months back for their song "Happy Up Here." Just saw this pretty cool version they put together as a promo for their album release. Check it out below.

Röyksopp - Happy Up Here (Marching Band Version)



And check out this pretty cool (older) video.

Röyksopp - What Else Is There (feat. Karin Dreijer Andersson from The Knife)



Not as creepy as Karin Dreijer Andersson's last video, but it has its moments. The video also reminds me of elements from one of the coolest videos from 2007.

Bat for Lashes - What's A Girl To Do

Socially Conscious / Social Conscience

More from the upcoming Daniel Merriweather album Love and War. This one features Wale - one of my favorite rappers right now. The message of this song is reminiscent of Marvin Gaye a la "What's Going On" / "Inner City Blues."

Daniel Merriweather - Change (feat. Wale)



Ya dig?

Coming soon to an iTunes download near you

Mos Def is coming back with a brand new album due out this June - The Ecstatic. And from this promo, it looks to be a return to his old form (hopefully more Black on Both Sides and less True Magic).

Mos Def - Flowers Promo



Also, peep these tracks that are also set to be on the album.

Mos Def - Quiet Dog



Mos Def - Life in Marvelous Times

Recognize

Recognize: Not just a funny joke (one of the only funny jokes actually) from this season of Scrubs, but also an instruction for you to acknowledge all the goodness that was Run-DMC.

Run-DMC was recently inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. See more here and here.

A few of my favorite Run-DMC songs below.

Run-DMC - It's Like That



And the pretty cool remix: Run-DMC vs. Jason Nevins - It's Like That (remix)



Run-DMC - Christmas in Hollis (and I don't even really celebrate Christmas)

She's Back

This blogger just woke up from a REM sleep. As such, my bag of tricks is quite empty with the exception of this little dirty-yet-clever (and what's better than that?) gem right here:

Iranian-American Country House Music = Next Big Thing

Sharam - She Came Along (feat. KiD CuDi)



Sharam Tayebi (the Iranian-American house DJ) recently collaborated with KiD CuDi on this pretty cool track set to be on Tayebi's forthcoming album Get Wild. The song features an old Patsy Cline song, "Strange." You wouldn't think that this would work, but somehow it does. Check it out.
