It's the THIS BLOG IS LEGIT post.

NUZE FLASH:
Subliminal messages in music = Ridiculously IN.

Here's an example.
Britney's new album "Circus."
Track Six is a hot club thumpin' track called If U Seek Amy.
The basic gist of the song is that Brit is lookng for this chick Amy to go clubbing with, aftr-party with, maybe hook up with? (Could this be a Lindsay/SammyRonson thing goin' on?) I assume not. Since Brit didn't write it.
But regardless...

The chorus reads:
Love me, hate me, say what you want about me

But all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to if you seek Amy.

These lyrics might be a little vague at first, but if ur like me, and u listen to the song for the seventeenth time, u pick up on an incredible subliminal oh-so-discreet message.
I'll write the lyrics again:
Love me, hate me, say what you want about me
But all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to F. U. C. K. me.



Britney Spears - If U Seek Amy


If u don't think this is musical mastery, then don't evr read LA nouveau again.
Nd don't even dare read HRO (hipster runoff) again.

Which brings me to share with u a great little op-ed piece that I just read this morning courtesy of Pretty Much Amazing!, a pretty legit sumwhere-btween-mainstream-nd-alt mp3 blog that is usually pretty dead-on. I'll share the introduction to this piece with u, nd u can
will read the rest:
There are typically two types of music blogs around in this here blogosphere – those that tell you what
they like and those that tell you what you should like. And then there’s Hipster Runoff (aka hipsterrunoff/HRO/OMGZHRO/Carles). Authored by “Carles”, The Runoff alternates between hating on the things you like and hating on the things you don’t like, leaving an ambiguously nonexistent center – the inability to be authentically ‘alt’.

I'd be lying if i said that I wasn't at least a bit inspired by evry HRO blog post, just cuz they're all so raw/hawt/fking honest/bullsht/use-no-vowels.
But while some may see this as exposing a dark unoriginality in LA nouveau, I see it quite the opposite. Bcuz while I might idolize the idea of HRO nd incoporate some of its wondrs into my own blog, my influences cum from all over the blogosphere/hemisphere/univrse.

Whethr I am influenced by a hawt track I find on HypeMachine
Whethr I am puzzled by the half-naked man walking down Figueroa Ave
Whethr I am terrified by the eerie sun settng into the smog instead of the horizon
Whethr I am excited by some sexcellent hipster artist playing a gig at the Music Box / Fonda
No matter... cuz this is expression. So fking enjoy it.
Nd this blog isn't ur same old dried-up washed-up slutted-up prostitotted-up "personal" xanga-esque bullshit.


This is ENTERTAINMNT + INFORMNG + ANGST-RIDDEN + NeoLosAngeles.

So to all the South Bitches, othr bitches, dark rappers, kidnappers, LOLcats, nd any othr haters/confused citizens,
u can take yo face nd throw it out the window.


Good night nd don't let the dream be bitchd away,
José
