Hey, folks, my apologies for taking so long to drop THE TOP ONE PERCENTERS MIXTAPE VOL 11. Shit's been real in grad school and I haven't had much time for anything. But that's no excuse. Volume 11 has 14 tracks and it leans heavily on the electro/indie/pop side of things. There are a few rap songs and a few R&B type tracks, too. Hit the jump for the tracklist and link, and if you haven't, check out THE TOP ONE PERCENTERS MIXTAPE VOL 10 and VOLUME 9.
Warner Brothers just released the *apparently* red-band trailer for their summer comedy We're the Millers. Jason Sudeikis plays a low level drug runner who recruits a stripper Jennifer Aniston to smuggle drugs across the Mexican border. Seems decent enough. At one point they play pictionary and Jennifer Aniston confuses a skateboard for a large, black dick. In her defense, though, it did look like a large, black dick. We're the Millers hits theaters August 9th. Shouts to Deadline.
Pharrell did the score and a good chunk of the soundtrack to Universal's 2010 hit Despicable Me. He churned out some super accessible bangers for that soundtrack/score and he returns to do the same for this summer's Despicable Me 2. "Happy", one of three original songs Pharrell did for the toon pic, is super upbeat. Like the title of the song, you can't listen to this track and not be put in a good mood.
Dope German electric pop. Summer is quickly creeping up and this is the kind of shit you wanna chill to. Or dance, I guess. I'd refer you to their social media profiles, but, fuck, they're all in German and aint nobody got time for that. Shouts to Alftitude.
CNN's Wolf Blitzer was in Oklahoma interviewing people whose lives were affected by the tornado yesterday. Asking the woman about her split second decision to leave her home ahead of the tornado (the home was destroyed), Wolf gets temporarily possessed by one of those national preachers when he asks, "Gotta thank the Lord, right? Did you thank the Lord?" The lady just looks down and giggles before replying she's actually an atheist. Hit the jump to see the video because the damn thing is on autoplay. Shouts to Deadspin + Twitter + The Blaze.
I don't like to jack descriptions from other sites, but this basically the same thing I would've wrote, so shouts to Pigeons and Planes.
One would be a fool to not anticipate exciting things from smoldering Swedish/Australian duo, Say Lou Lou. Twins Elektra and Miranda Kilbey jointly pack a dangerous combination of musical prowess and flawless appearance. Rumor has it the pair are in the process of recording their debut album, due out later this year, but in the meantime catch this eerily beautiful set of visuals for their recent single, “Julian.”
I'm not terribly on top of Mayer Hawthorne, and that's probably a fucking shame. Because based on this song, the first single off his upcoming Where Does This Door Go album, this dude may be the truth. This song has so much funk, so much crooning, and so much 70s soul softly wrapped into a jam so deftly crafted that you're head wont stop spinning. Too fucking dope. Goddamn. For the sake of argument, though, Pigeons and Planes feel the opposite. Where Does This Door Go drops July 16th.
Like, what the fuck is this? Who paid for this? Who thought this was a great idea? Who's idea was it to hire the 'Tanning Mom' in the first place? And after this was produced, filmed, edited, who said, "Yep, this is gold. TO THE PRESSES!"? Because whomever is responsible for this should be locked in a tanning bed and forced to die a horrible death, Final Destination style. Shouts to TMZ.
AXE has just debuted their new "First Impressions Count" campaign for AXE Hair Styling. Created by AXE's regular agency, BBH, London, the four spots feature men in absurd situations caring more about their hair than the task at hand because they're trying to impress an attractive woman. The above spot, 'Burglar', features a burglar who, instead of fleeing from the soon arriving police, fixes his hair in the mirror before slyly approaching the woman whose house he's robbing. Shouts to Campaign Brief.
'Track' features a female track star so enamored with the guy shooting the "GO" gun that she just stares at him instead of running her race. Crazy asinine, right? Because women should totally give up on their dreams, or, as the 'Burglar' spot, put themselves in extreme danger for a hot guy.
'Surgeon' features a doctor who stops mid-procedure to play with his hair before using a defibrillator to revive a hot chick.
'Tribe' features a guy who gets captured by a menacing looking tribe until the hot female walks towards him seemingly to tear his clothes off and fuck him instead of tearing his clothes off and killing him. At least everyone is ethnic looking and not just the tribesmen/women.
