A weekly playlist for the listener with a one-track mind.
The Black Ghosts featuring Damon Albarn: "Repetition Kills You" The British electro duo team up with Gorillaz frontman Albarn for a nifty track that sounds like the product of an unholy union between Blur and Faster Pussycat: club-pop meets '80s Brit-rock meets Sunset Strip glam.
Buff1: "Classic Rap" On this history lesson-slash-love letter, the Ann Arbor, Mich., rapper bemoans the sorry state of hip-hop, gets all Schoolhouse Rock about it. Seldom has anyone referred to Snoop Dogg with such nostalgic fondness.
BOAT: "Four Beds for BOAT" When Songmercials Attack! Part 1: The loveable BOAT is issuing this track on its new "Topps" EP (trading cards and gum included). Like many of the group's songs, it's jaunty and whimsical, and seems to be mostly about BOAT.
N.E.R.D., Santogold and Julian Casablancas: "My Drive Thru" When Songmercials Attack! Part 2: The decidedly less lovable troika of Santogold, Pharrell "It's Like I'm Not Even Trying Anymore" Williams and Strokes frontman Casablancas sell out tastefully on this track created for Converse's 100th anniversary.
Bon Jovi: "Mercy" If the bleached-out video footage is any indication, Jon Bon Jovi appears to be morphing into some strange Springsteen/Elvis impersonator hybrid. Probably, it was only a matter of time until this happened. In related news, his cover medley of Duffy's "Mercy" and the Stones' "Start Me Up" is pretty good.
