New Music Tuesday: Mini T's, Die Antwoord, Best Coast

Oh man it's a really solid week for the new music.

Despite what you may have heard from some other people, Crazy for You from Best Coast is really pretty great. Is it ground breaking or game changing? Nope. But it IS feel good "fuzzy buzzy" summertime pop music done really well.

The Mini T's highly anticipated FORTRESS is out today. Even if  you are totally butthurt that they relocated to Brooklyn I suggest you suck it up and check out the album and also go see them with Kinch at The Rhythm Room tonight.

Die Antwoord may or may not be legit, if fact they may even be as fake as my interest in your new album (just kidding your new album is GREAT!) but that doesn't make them any less fantastic. They are sooo fantastic. "Enter The Ninja"  is by far and away the best Rap song of the year, and maybe the best rap song ever! (by white South Africans at least)
