Everytime I dj I realize how out of much more out of touch I’ve become since the last time. Sometimes it is just annoying because I don’t have the songs ready to play, like a few weeks ago when I didn’t realize that twerking had invaded Edison Park or that we didn’t have any twerking songs on the ipods. Then other times it is annoying because I miss out on cool shit; so here is all that shit all at once:

While making sure we had the right songs for a Cornballs Dance, we talked about the disco sound creeping into top 40 currently with Daft Punk’s new single “Lose Yourself To Dance“, JT’s “Take Back The Night” and Robin Thicke’s “Give it 2 U” (watch this one, if only for 2 Chainz’s Ass Float – thats right, Ass Float), about Trinidad Jame’s parody, “All Rolls Everything” (Austin’s find), about Major Lazer’s Bubble Butt (thanks? Lunt Ave block party) and Mike and Matt showing me Rick Ross’s Pineapple Slices (which is Rick Ross rapping while grossly/sloppily eating chicken) and the Yeezus parody “I Am A Dog“.

But most importantly, Migos’ “Versace” featuring the 3-Ply rapper, Wheelchair Jimmy.  Please watch the video,  try to get through all of it, then try not to sing it for the next two days.  And if you thought that was annoying, try the other Migos song, Hannah Montana:

Via the Nerdist: with the high pitched voice of Dolly Parton and fast guitar beat, slowing down Jolene to 33RPM sounds like a cover of the original, which is better than you can say for Alvin and the Chipmunks’ Christmas album.

Thank you Kevin for the heads up on being able to stream the entire new Kings of Leon album, Mechanical Bull, over at iTunes. I’ve only listened to it once, so I will leave my judgement till after a few more listens.
As for further promotion, they did a series of videos with Fred Armisen that are kinda funny. I did enjoy their frequent references to Nacho without ever explaining (who might not read the liner notes) who he is.
