Exit Through The Gift Shop

For anyone who used to read Iliketowhispertoo, or anyone who caught Mr. Brainwash's gallery show last year, "Everything is Beautiful," you'll be pleased to know that Thiery Guetta (Mr. Brainwash) made a movie. It's all about street art and the beautiful movement that it's become. Check it out, for more details on showtimes and sneak peaks, click here.

Die Antwoord

So I may be a bit late on the Die Antwoord train, but whatever, this is funny. If you haven't already been acquainted, this is Die Antwoord, and yes, they are zef, most zef in fact. What is zef? Think South Africa's answer to white trash.

Die Antwoord is the brainchild of South African artist, Waddy Jones. Throughout the years, Jones has fronted numerous other groups and is known for his all-out character antics. Appearing once as "Max Normal," a rapper who was recognized most readily by his drab three-piece suits, flooded pants and timid demeanor, it's funny to see Jones reaching so far out to the opposite side of the spectrum for Die Antwoord. So what is all mean? Well, I can't tell you that, that's something for you to decide, BUT what I can tell you is this: Die Antwoord is the shiiiitttt. For being a fake group, they sure are entertaining. Check out more photos or listen to their full album here at the group's website.

I Learned the Hard Way

Talk about a meeean horn section. The eagerly anticipated album "I Learned the Hard Way" by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings comes out this Tuesday. For those of you who aren't already familiar with their music, I feel 100% confident in saying that SJ and the DK are the epitome of revivalist soul music. Not since Sly and the Family Stone have I felt so compelled to kick my shoulders back and move instantly to the beat of a song. Sharon's soulful siren voice combined with the equally wicked and rhythmic Dap-Kings makes for some of the most cathartic and engaging music you'd ever hope for.

If you're a fan of afrobeat, soul, the mod revivalist movement, funk or screaming down a highway to get your love back -- this is for you.

Click the link above for a few free tracks courtesy of the group's website. There you'll also find information on how by purchasing the album you can contribute to the growth of the wonderful organization Medicins Sans Frontieres, or as it's more locally known Doctors Without Borders.

For now though, close the door, turn the music up, press play and get down.
