A Few Quick Notes
The Rolling Stones made the news twice this week. First they are suing Lil Wayne for allegedly stealing too many musical qualities from their song “Play with Fire” for Tha Carter III song “Playin’ wit Fire.” (He does this really well in a response to Beyonce’s Irreplaceable on his track from TC3 “Comfertable.”) Check those out at the end of the post. The Stones have also made what I consider a fairly bold move in not signing with HUGE entertainment conglomerate Live Nation. Instead they have opted for Universal. Which is bizarre since that is who they are suing over the Lil Wayne business.
TV on the Radio has a new album coming out September 23rd in the US (though I’m sure we’ll get some sneak peeks before then). It is entitled Dear Science, –comma and all. After quite possibly the best album of 2006, the expectation bar is high for these guys. Hope for big things. MP3 below.
And Brooklyn Vegan has great coverage of the Nas Fox News protest, complete with Stephen Colbert videos. Check those out and the mp3 below.

Covers Tuesday IV

Not the Stones’ most depressing song (we’ll save that one for a Sunday Songs post), but “Wild Horses” is one of their best mellow pieces. Check out fellow-mellow(ers) Iron and Wine’s cover:
