Star Slinger

I am so mad that I missed this guy when he came to SF in October. He mixes motown, hiphop, and house music and turns it into a baby black panther that eats Korean tacos and does yoga. He is another reason why I love British people so much.

Jennifer Sanchez

This is a cover of a Frank Ocean song. I'm pretty sure I'm in love.

Ridiculously Cool!!!

I want to do this so bad.

Eliza Doolittle

Another British artist. Her whole album has a Motown vibe, including this song, which is subtly pretty dirty (see original music video for this song).

Flux Capacitor

I was looking into buying a flux capacitor today (because who doesn't want to time travel) and I found out it's only $265! I think I'm going to have to save up for a little bit but it will totally be worth it.

Alexander - Truth from Alexander on Vimeo.

The front man for Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes has a solo album out. This track was actually produced by RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan.

Little Dragon

This song is dope. Little Dragon is a four piece Swedish band. The lead singer is half Swedish half Japanese, which is pretty awesome.

Ty Ku

I heard about this from an XV song. The bottle lights up! I mixed it with ginger ale and and lime. Check out this article for more info:

We Are Augustines

City Girls Are The Best

How To Dress Well

Yourstru.ly Presents: How To Dress Well "Decisions" from Yours Truly on Vimeo.

This guy is a philosophy PhD student as well!

Hilarious

Lucy Rose

I'm loving everything British right now. The Burberry music campaign, Harry Potter, Dr. Who, Adele, Ellie Goulding, Rizzle Kicks, and now Lucy Rose. "Middle of the Bed" is another good song.

All The Best Rappers Are From The Midwest!

Check out Rockie Fresh. This kid is from Chicago, a true lyricist, and about to hit the big time. His mixtape "The Otherside" is the dopeness.

Legit

How to steal 23 MacBook Pros, 14 iPhones, and 9 iPods In 31 Seconds

If I wasn't morally against stealing, this would be ridiculously awesome.

XV Does It Again

Makes me proud to be from Kansas.

Emily Browning

And she's Australian.

The Night Is For Lovers - Come On

Come On by thenightisforlovers

This is the is the first song off my acoustic project (and the first real song that I've ever written and recorded) entitled "The Night Is For Lovers". The song is called "Come On". I'll probably make some changes but here is what I have so far.

Jewelry Box

If I get all the watches I want, I'll need a place to put them. This is also sweet because it has a charging station for your phone and Ipod as well.

Watches

Watches I am considering.

Yearbook

Ben Cocks

I heard this song on a movie trailer. Its pretty dope.

An Oldie But A Goodie

This probably my favorite YouTube video of all time.

XV

XV is one of my favorite rappers right now and I am sure it is partially due to the fact that he is from Wichita. He just released this yesterday because he passed 30,000 followers on twitter. The song he is rapping over is called Sierra Leone by Mt. Eden.

Boys Will Be Boys

IS TROPICAL - THE GREEKS (official music video) from EL NINO on Vimeo.

So graphic! So awesome!

Moscato

"No Hands" by Waka Flocka Flame must be playing while you drink this very sweet tasting white wine (only $6).

Bon Iver

Visuals from a song off the new album.

Bottle Opener

I think this might be my next frivolous purchase. Subtly is key as I move from undergrad to young adulthood.

Emma Watson

High fashion in Vogue. I love her too much.

Big Sean

This kid is blowing up. I am stoked for his album this summer. I love the car sound effect at 2:52.

Rick Ross Baby! Click on the Tattoos!

Dopest Bar In KC

Manifesto is located in the basement of the Rieger Hotel in the Crossroads district. It is the coolest bar in Kansas City. It is in the style of an old school speakeasy, you text for reservations, and the drinks are made by award-winning mixologists. But the sickest part is that you read the menus by candlelight, the entrance is in the back of an alley, and some drinks come with a giant block of ice. Order the Smokin' Choke.

Food Pyramid

Check out this food pyramid from Harvard. Notice that the most important things are exercise and weight management a.k.a. portion control. Surprisingly, rice and pasta are in the "use sparingly" category and plant oils are something you should be consuming daily.

Lunch

Bringing your lunch is a great way to save money but there are so few cool ways to transport it. Here is my new lunch box, which I feel overcomes the lameness problem. It is metal and gives off the vibe that you are back in the 1940s about to do some serious work on the high beam of a skyscraper.

Reptar

First of all, any band that references Rugrats has to be awesome! Second, this band from Athens, GA is worth checking out.

Fred Perry = Dopeness

Fred Perry was once an English tennis player but is now a ridiculously cool British clothing line. These are my new summer shoes but I am so worried about getting them dirty that I haven't worn them yet. That is going to have to change.

Frank Ocean

I am not a big Odd Future fan (their music is too dark for me and people often confuse uniqueness/shock value with true talent). But I am really digging one of their members called Frank Ocean. Check out his mixtape "nostalgia/ultra".

Summer Breeze Makes Me Feel Fine

These are two great white wines that I had at my friend's house. Perfect for a warm summer evening. Both are light and refreshing but if you have to pick one go with the Dashwood.

Rizzle Kicks

My favourite British hiphop duo. I even wear my hat like them. My prediction is that they will be blowing up pretty soon.
