Have you heard "Multiply?" The song is one giant hook. And novelty act? I've been following his career for 10 years now. Yes, guy can sing, but sadly with the new album, I miss the bump.

Hmm, while this may or may not be true, all I kept hearing about the guy prior to my introduction of his music, was how I just have to see him live. The black/white thing came later. Or actually, not at all.

"he's white! but he sings like a black guy!"

he's a novelty act. a wack one. novelty wackt? WHERE THE HOOKS AT?

then again, i didn't like the last portishead album either. i've always felt them to be kinda overrated.

I was very surprised. Retro-y as all hell, but not at all cloying or forced. Was almost enough to make me give a good listen to the AM's again, but life is short.

Very good "spring" album.

And I loathe Alex Turner's real band. It's pretty amazing.

my 2 cents...

I guess I need to look into this Santogold, then.

today is a ridiculously good day for new releases. there's also the robyn album (although i worry that it's gonna suffer the same fate as kylie since it's been out forever) and robert forster's album and lil mama's vyp and the estelle record, which i am curious about because i heard 'american boy' a bunch over the weekend and i really dug it.
