Beautiful And Broken At The Knees
The Streets "When You Wasn't Famous" - ...and now we shall all wait patiently until this song inevitably turns up in an episode of the next season of Entourage. This new single finds Mike Skinner bored with the fact that he can easily pick up girls now that he's famous and resolving to hit on other pop celebrities since that poses the same challenge as when he was a nobody. It's snotty, smug and self-absorbed, but his characteristic wit and attention to narrative detail saves the track from seeming like a cut-rate English Eminem. And of course, the ridiculously catchy chorus does not hurt at all. (Click here for the official site of The Streets.)
Blitzen Trapper "Whiskey Kisser (Kittenz Remix)" - It's interesting how whenever these pimp strut basslines get mixed up with cartoonish country affectations, the result is that the funk mutates into this weird, wobbly bounce. This track in particular makes me imagine Reed Richards or Plastic Man dancing while warping their super-elastic limbs to the beat. (Click here for the official Blitzen Trapper site.)
