Radiohead * Jay-ZzzZz = Jaydiohead
It’s not bad so far. Still not as great as (impossible to find) The White Albulum though. (Here’s a taste tho.)
Anyway, just fucking download it. You need something new.

Back when I was popular
The most downloaded show I’ve ever made was this one, a totally non-hiphop mixtape style thing I made about two years ago. People still ask me where the file is, how can they get it, etc., so I figured I’d make it available.
P.S.: Portishead’s new album Third can be streamed in full at Last.fm right now. Yeah, I know I’m old, thanks.

So Akon's prison time was entirely fabricated... now what?
The backstory is simple– Akon, who has sold a ton of albums (3 million of his second album, according to the story) has claimed this whole time that he spent three and a half years in prison for being the leader of a notorious car theft ring that focused on Porsches, BMWs, etc. etc. Problem is, it never happened.
Now, this just got out, so I don’t know anything about the reaction either Akon himself or his publicist, record company, etc. will have (they’ve already denied to comment), but as I see it, there’s only one solution, considering he’s in danger of becoming a 21st-century Milli Vanilli: to laugh it off.
The only move to save his career (and even then, we’ll see) would be, like: “Oh, you guys just figured this out? Huh, took you long enough, suckers.” Am I right? Because anything else will seem like backpedaling, he has no choice but to man up to the accusations and call everyone in the media an idiot for taking so long. Right? I mean, what else can he do?

P.S.: I've started doing podcasts again
… and you can thank Neil Gorman and Nokia. Listen to see why. (The music is by Greydon Square… thanks Tim.)
The RSS feed is still here.
Also, for the next 3 months or so, Nokia is sponsoring the show. They sent me an N810 and I chat about it a bit in the thing. You can use the code “inoveryourhead” if you’re going to buy one, it’ll give you a 15% rebate on it (which is cheaper than Amazon).
So the plan is to do them every 10-14 days or so… feel free to harass me if I don’t (Podshow will, otherwise). :)

Officially the hottest track ever right now
Goddamn, it’s a good thing I’m not in Toronto right now, because I’d be a 95 pound, cocaine-snorting groupie for Fritz Helder. Shit. This album is like a perfect combination of vogue, neon 80s and Grandmaster Flash or something. Anyway, whatever, go listen to it.

Doctor Steel
When I was young and played the accordion, I wanted to grow up and be the coolest accordion player alive, like Doctor Steel kind of is now. His music is kind of how I think nerd rap would sound if there were an accordion involved… which is to say, more intellectually interesting than traditionally good. Either way though, this dude looks damn cool.
(P.S.: I grabbed the pic from riotclitshave, which always has great pics.)

150 Episodes: Holy Crap
My 150th show, done from the balcony of a hotel room during SXSW 2007. The state and future of the web and of media personalities, my position within the structure, and where I hope to be. It all came out.
This was a great show to do.
