This volume of #TheSummerOfGeorge Playlist is brought to you once again by Etch-A-Sketch
Kendrick Lamar- Hiiipower: Produced by J. Cole. Clever lyrics, quality song over all.
Drake- Dreams Money Can Buy: You all love Drake already, I don't need to convince you.
B.o.b.- NY NY: Another song about NYC? Yes, and it's good. And it's better than listening to every girl sing "Empire State of Mind."
Big Sean- What Goes Around: If you don't already like Big Sean,where have you been living, under a stupid rock?(His verse on the All of the Lights remix didn't convince you?) then this song will definitely convert you. His album "Finally Famous" drops on June 28th.
Hasn't been a week (it's been, what, a day? Ok, maybe two.) since the last group of songs but what the hell. We have about an hour until the rapture so put on these songs, channel Kegasus and enjoy the end of the world. These suggestions coming from a hometown bro of mine, Etch-a-Sketch.
1. Mac Miller-Best Day Ever: If you haven't already heard of him, Mac Miller is a kid (literally, I think he's maybe 19) from Pittsburgh on the same label as Wiz Khalifa and is putting out songs of the same caliber. I also really like Outside by Miller, good shit all around.
2. Kanye West- All of the Lights Remix: You heard the original at parties every weekend but the remix is ridic.
3. J. Cole- See It To Believe It: Decently chill song but great to cruise to.
4. Kanye West ft Jay-Z- The Joy: I will always be an advocate of Kanye.
5. DJ Khaled ft. Drake, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne- I'm on One: Best new song out right now, loving it. Drake's verse may or may not be competing with B.o.B's "Airplanes" for the most quoted song on facebook but this song is quality.
Last summer I heard Ke$ha's "Your Love Is My Drug" just a couple thousand times too many so we're putting together a summer playlist that doesn't suck. I'm talking, windows down, white girl jamming, good, summer shit. Every week, a few new songs to add to your rotation. This first six isn't a list of brand new songs you have never heard of before but basically just the six I got on loop right now.
Make Some Noise - Beastie Boys: They're back and I fucking love it.
In This Life - Mike Stud: Kid's good. Keep your eyes on him, big things coming. Hear he can play ball too...
Young & Wild & Free: Even if you don't like stoner rap or just get annoyed with every caucasian female adding #TGOD to all her tweets that hint (subtly or not so subtly) that she smokes weed and/or drinks, this is a dece song. Reminiscent of Snoop's song with Cudi last year, That Tree (the video is oddly funny)
Freaks and Geeks - Childish Gambino: Constant flow of the best lyrics you've ever heard. If you don't know about Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino, get familiar. This kid is unreal.
Temptations - Gorilla Warfare Tactics: This shit is just catchy as helll.
Oh No - Girl Talk: If you still aren't on Girl Talk's shit, then his album All Day will change your mind instantly. This is the first song from the album and has one of my favorite intros. Solid song.
