We all loved having a Brim full of Asha, tonsand tons of Brims all over our Asha’s, and the sad thing none of us knew what the banana it meant. But, Cornershop is always there, in our head singing that damn song when we least expect it, even to this day I’ll pop out that ole’ ditty on a rainy Thursday and sing all the way home. So, in respect to the Brims and the Asha’s..here are three more tracks, including a oh-so-Bollywood M.I.A. remix.
“What the fuck is Stronger about?” - Diplo. BMP Magazine. Dec/Jan.That is truly profound Diplo. What the fuck is ‘Stronger’ about? Well Kanye being Kanye, its about how amazing he is, and about picking chicks up. Ye says he “can’t wait much longer”, then he’s talking about being “honored by [his] lateness”, I mean why would he even show up to this fake shit, right? Oh but he spins it again talking about the black Kate Moss. Does that mean he’s the black Pete Doherty? And to sum up the weirdness he talks about ice cream (”Klondike”), clothes (”Louis Vuitton”, “Christian Dior”), and lesbians (”blond-dike”). Why? Because he can.
“Stronger” is a truly confusing record. Nonsensical would be the best way to describe it. Probably why he wasn’t nominated for Song of the Year at them GRAMMYs.
So here we are again. Friday. Do you ever have one of those up and down rollercoaster can’t predict what will happen the next second kind of weeks? Well that’s what I’m having this week. Looks like it’s all going to work out in the end though. For a minute there, I was happy, then bummed, then stressed, and ultimately happy again. And of course there’s these….
Here’s Mariah Carey’s first single off her next comeback album E=mc2. Interesting album title, I think. Oh! The song? Um, yeah, what can I say? It’s skankilicious. More like “We Belong Together”-wannabe. It will get old soon.Mariah Carey - Touch My Body
*BONUS*
Props to GvsB for this one. Take a listen to Holy Fuck’s remix of M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes”. This one is official guys - and I think it’s my favorite.

M.I.A. vs The Bravery - An Honest M.I.A
Here is M.I.A.’s new video “Paper Planes”….first off her clothes are amazing, like the beginning of Fresh Prince of Bel Air. AND, what the hell are those huge loafs of bread wrapped in foil she is selling? I kind of want one.
