I'm in love with Odd Future, AKA OFWGKTA (Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All). They're brilliant (beats and lyrics) and all aged 17-23, according to Wikipedia. As a warning, it took them a little time to grow on me. If you don't like it today, come back to it. I found myself on Rap Genius, looking up the lyrics and what they mean. Sometimes deep, sometimes sick, their work is the shit. And, they'll be at Coachella. (YESSSSS!)
Here are two of them, Tyler the Creator (AKA Wolf Haley) and Hodgy Beats performing on Jimmy Fallon. Talk about stage presence.
Here is Tyler the Creator again, with a music video he directed for his single, Yonkers. Don't watch it while you're eating. I did the first time. Mistake.
I'm also in love with Lykke Li. She is a great live performer, a great lyricist, and always has unique video concepts. Her performance at the El Rey Theatre on March 9th, 2011 is my favorite show to date, and I've been to a lot. This is her newest newest single, I Follow Rivers. I love her bravery as an artist.
Lykke Li asked Tyler the Creator from Odd Future to remix I Follow Rivers. Here's the result. I love his voice. He sounds like he eats people, not food. Scary.
As always, please send me any excellent music or art you find or think I'll like. <3
