    Absolutely stunning rendition of "Christmas 1915" by the Celtic music group Celtic Thunder.



    Unfortunately, one of those men is no longer with us. George Donaldson, the large bald dude laying on his side in the middle of the group, who sang the opening verses of this song, died of a heart attack in Scotland in 2014.

    One of my favorite groups for sure. Little Brother is out of North Carolina and consists of 3 members, Phonte, Big Pooh, and 9th wonder (producer). This is a pretty dope song, talking about the groups history. Phonte opens up talking about "The Foreign exchange" which is a 2 man group consisting of Phonte(Vocals) and Nicolay (producer).

    This is off their last album, and has Khrysis (Member of the NC hip-hop collective known as "The Justus league") as the producer instead of 9th. Khrysis had done some producing for LB's second album "The Minstrel Show".

    We had a Beats Pill that we'd set up while we got dressed for games. This song was our go to. It's kinda dumb but it got us hyped haha


    Me Personally, it depended on my mood. Sometimes I'd go with something hard to get hyped:
    Jumpman - Drake
    They Sleep - Dame DOLLA
    Always Into Something - Stalley
    Jimmy Choo - Fetty Wap
    All About the Money - Troy Ave
    Upper Echelon - Travis Scott
    Don't Play - Travis Scott
    Boomin - Fetty Wap
    Money Talk - T.I.

    And sometimes I'd go with something a little more triumphant/emotional like:
    A Star is Born - Jay Z
    Superstar - Lupe Fiasco
    FAME - Young Jeezy & TI
    Fortune Force Field - Tech Nine
    Alive - Joe Budden
    Hell & Back - Kid Ink
    Invincible - Machine Gun Kelly
    Talk About It - Dr. Dre/King Mez/Justus
    White Iverson - Post Malone

    A Mixture of Both:
    We Made It - Busta Rhyme & Linkin Park
    Homecoming - Kenye West & Chris Martin
    I Believe That We Will Win - Young Rome
    It's Time - Big Sean
    Overtime - Ace Hood
    Over It - Tech Nine
    Stand For - Ty Dolla Sign

    Some Others:
    Bunny Ranch - Kid Ink
    Couple Bands - Fetty Wap
    Just Last Week - Big K.R.I.T.
    Real Recognize - Kid Ink
    Survival - Eminem
    Feel That - Vic Mensa

    I've been thinking about the late great Warren Zevon today. I used to look foward to his releases of dark, acerbic humor that stood out in LA like a sore thumb. My fiends put it best.... you're attracted to "loser poets." And maybe I am. Richard Thompson, Townes Van Zandt, Warren Zevon.... those are MY guys. This is one of the greatest songs ever written.

    And stop apologizing for the things you've never done
    'Cause time is short and life is cruel but it's up to us to change
    This town called Malice

    Rows and rows of disused milk floats
    Stand dying in the dairy yard
    And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk
    Bottles to their hearts
