Ben Talmi and KAMAU slow OutKast’s Hey Ya way down and infuse the track with a much more reflective time signature. I love the original version well enough but this right here is doing the most.

“Ya’ll don’t give a damn, ya’ll just wanna’ dance.”

This interpretation is a example of what you’ll experience on brother KAMAU’s deput A Gorgeous Fortune EP out now. The EP feature six creative and wonderfully bohemian soul tinged songs. I am going to keep my ear to the rail awaiting more from this artist. I dig. Also, make sure to heck out the tracklisting down, way down below. Peace.
 

 
Artist: Ben Talmi & KAMAU
Single: Hey Ya (Interpretation)
 
Hey Ya Lyrics:
 
My baby don’t mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure.
Uh, but does she really wanna
But can’t stand to see me
Walk out the door.
Don’t try to fight the feelin’
‘Cause the thought alone is killing me right now
Uh, thank god for mom and dad
For sticking two together
‘Cause we don’t know how

Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.

You think you’ve got it
Oh, you think you’ve got it
But got it just don’t get it
‘Til there’s nothing at all
We get together
Oh, we get together
But sex always better when there’s feelings involved
If what they say is “Nothing is forever”
Then what makes, then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes, what makes, what makes love the exception
So why you, why you
Why you, why you, why you are we so in denial
When we know we’re not happy here…
Y’all don’t give a damn, ya’lljust wanna dance

Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.

We rose like a rose from a stone under flourescent light
Love like glass in the water and we thought it was ice
Cold like earth when it froze unforgiven forgiven for it was dead from the go
We gets under the vultures confused it for mistletoe
We jump into the ocean without learning how to float.

Frank Ocean is laying the bricks of his legacy. Each song is a brick. The bricks are gold. Without much argument nor doubt, these bricks exist as intricately laid cobblestones leading Mr. Ocean to the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame of our hearts.

Blond. This album will win awards. If not a Grammy or two, then most certainly a place upon the mantelpiece of cherished memories. His music, the heartfelt lyrics and the luscious melodies of your favorite Frank Ocean songs linger. Frank’s songs touch upon not just familiar themes, but familiar emotions. They are exploratory in their honesty and density of truth. Blond has more in common with bodies of work reminiscent of What’s Going On (Marvin Gaye),  Songs in the Key of Life (Stevie Wonder) and Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me (The Cure) or OK Computer (Radiohead) than with contemporary artists making music today. And above all the craftsmanship of Frank’s work is both substantive and relatable, and incredibly mundane in the most humanistic and provocative way.

Frank Ocean’s songs become our songs. The songs are where and when we need to hear them. Fuck a powdered line of this or a glassful of that, these songs are the remedy and the cure. Sweet potent words, and an ongoing body of work worth your while over and over again…Blond.

This album will win awards.

I am not going to get into the long four-year wait because ultimately it doesn’t matter. What does matter is the quality of the finished product and his latest release, Blond has plenty to get excited over and suss out. Songs of intricate beauty and sophisticated nuance. Songs draped in vulnerability, proclamations of  struggle, accomplishment, fear and the much sought after compulsion to escape and dissect from a distance.

“Every night fucks every day up , every day patches the day up…”

It’s been two weeks and a day since Frank dropped his sophomore release on iTunes and as a fan, I am still coming down off of major euphoria. This is a great album with a wonderful collection of songs. And getting to know and discover each track is an exercise is both self-awareness and Mr. Ocean’s unique observation of the world he occupies. The material on this release is vastly different from what The Ocean has previously given. But to be fair so much of what Frank has released to date is divergent from and not easily paired with other material within his catalog. Yet, here I am trying to compare Nostalgia Ultra with the crazy, sexy and mature songs found on the Blond offering. Hey, it’s what I do.
 

 
The opening track Nikes is a lot of things all at once. It is a stereotypical depiction of certain members of the fairer sex as golddiggers delivered in the autotune trappings of a decade ago. It shamelessly references drug culture, yet it is also tender and mysterious. By the songs end though things morph into an illuminating metaphysical drug-induced existential tirade.

“Let you guys prophesize. Let you guys prophesize, we gonna see the future first. Living sorta last night, feels like a past life. Speaking on it, don’t know what got into people. Devils be possessing homies,  demons tryna body jump, why you think I’m this bitch wearing a fucking yamaka? Acid on me like the rain, weed crumbles in the glitter. Rain. Glitter. We lay it out on a square floor. But we ain’t turf no astro. Mesmerize how the strobe glow…”

But in the end, “It’s only awkward if you’re fucking him too…”

After I work through the songs, listening to some songs on repeat endlessly. I decide not to give a song by song breakdown. Because to me, this body of work will mean something else to you than it does to me. However, saying as much, my favorite tracks are, in no particular order: Nikes, Ivy, Pink + White, Solo, Nights, White Ferrari, Siegfreid, Godspeed and Futura Free.

“Mind over matter is magic, I do magic..”
 

 

About the song Nights, though. I love this song for all kinds of reasons. I enjoy how it is sorta like getting two songs in one. It shape-shifts into something else and ends up as an entirely different animal when all is said and done. Coolest beans. Peace.

the weeknd | beauty behind the madness

The Weeknd gets fans (haters too) all in a tizzy. His second (official) album Beauty Behind The Madness (via Republic Records) drops today!
 
You can stream it over at HYPETRAK. The BBTM release is a biggie! Why? Well, it’s 14-tracks heavy on why we love Mr. Abel Tesfaye in the first place… the music man, the music! Although the haunting sadistically and beauteous voice is familiar we’re treated to hear new directions in sound, scope and the myriad palette of colors coming together is such fine form. This particular body of work stretches, arcs and shifts from the unconventional to a proscribed formula based on, well… unconventionality. Case in point, the track Dark Times (feat. Ed Sheeran) is an unforeseen sticky sweet and euphoric absinthe pill. Just as the proceeding track Prisoner, a tryst coupling Lana Del Rey‘s prettily bruised vocals with the sinful amber of yours truly. It’s a slight of hand; a mere candy drop coated with incense smoke and shared body heat.

All in all, the album stands on it’s on and is a pretty solid display of The Weeknd’s unfolding brilliance. Personally, I think this is his best release to date. The Beauty Behind The Madness closes with the track Angel and it intones… I hope you find somebody to love, find somebody, find somebody … well,  I think my ears already have. Peace.

Angel Lyrics
 
Angel, oh oh oh

Knew were special from the moment I saw you

I saw you

Yeah

I said angel,  oh oh oh

I feel you closer every time I call you

I call you…

‘Cause all I see are wings

I can see your wings

But I know what I am, and the life I live

The life I live

But even though I sin

Baby, we all want to live

But I know  time will tell if I planned for this

Yeah. If I planned for this…

And if we’re denied

I hope you find somebody (x3)

I hope you find somebody to love

Somebody to love (x2)

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

__________

I said angel, whoa whoa whoa

You’ll probably never take me back and I know this

I know this

I said angel, whoa whoa whoa

I am so desensitized to feeling these emotions

No emotions, baby

‘Cause all I see are wings

I can see your wings

But I know what I am, and the life I live

The life I live

But even though I sin

We all want to live

But I know  time will tell if I planned for this, yeah

If I planned for this…

And if we’re denied

I hope you find somebody (x3)

I hope you find somebody to love

Somebody to love (x2)

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

__________

And even though we live inside

A dangerously empty life

You always seem to bring a light

You always seem to bring a light

And even though we live inside

A dangerously empty life

You always seem to bring me light

You always seem to bring me light

I hope you find somebody (x3)

I hope you find somebody to love

Some body to love (x2)

Yeah. Yeah.

OHHHHHH!

And for those who bare the wounds of love lost, love found and love won will feel right at home inside this groove. This one is like pushing a big body Cadillac out into the furthest reaches of night driving therapy. Pleasure This Pain is the heart stuff love is made of. Peace.

Pleasure This Pain: Lyrics
 
I see you clear as yesterday
Top down fingers in the breeze
Weaving through the lights in the sky
You said, “Baby close your eyes”
& I prayed we would always hold on to this feeling stronger faster, faster

But now your always movin’ on a highway
Talking bout “Wished we would have done shit my way.”
There’s so many things we mighta’ done
& all these bodies tryin’ hold me
But they don’t know me like you know me, ch child

I never meant that you
& and the flowers in your hair
How I promised you I always will have your back
But can you love me despite the cracks?

But can you love me?
Can you love me despite the cracks?

Oh oh baby, this pleasure this pain
Oh o baby, this pleasure this pain
Pleasure this pain
Pleasure this pain
Baby
Baby
Baby
Baby

My memories ain’t the best ya’ know
I don’t like feeling like the rest of them
If you & me were meant to meet the sky together
Then I could be the one beneath your fly forever

Careful baby what you ask for
I got fire tucked inside me like a match box
You know I was doomed, to fall in love with you

Put a band aid on and move forth for the time being
But I can’t tell if that’s my heart beating or is that’s time leaving
See, I been talking to you lately feels like I’m been going crazy
Trying to avoid all this time when you raised all those painful places

I was only sticking to the script dog,
You wrote, I was only giving what I get’ dog
You know, Cause I paint a picture in the sky right where you want to be
I never said it love but more like you is what I want to be….

Oh oh baby, this pleasure this pain
Oh o baby, this pleasure this pain
Pleasure this pain
Pleasure this pain
Baby
Baby
Baby
Baby

Can you love?
Can you love me despite the cracks?

Can you love?
Can you love me despite the cracks?

Ibeyi (French-Cuban twin sisters Kaindé and Naomi Diaz) are the musical offshoots of legendary percussionist Anga Diaz, blaze their own musical trail with the track River. The song is taken from their debut EP Oya release, out now courtesy of XL Recordings. The Ed Morris-directed video finds Kaindé and Naomi submerged within an aquatic medium. surfacing to exhale beautiful lyrics and douse blessings upon us all with evocative incantations, first in English, then finally in Yoruba.

The Oya EP is available on iTunes

But there is more than meets the untrained eye and ear here, and for youthful 19 year olds there is wisdom aplenty. There exists a correlation between their stage name Ibeyi (meaning children of miraculous birth) and the titles and significance of the tracks River and Oya. I’ll let you suss it out on your own. But know this, these songs are more than pretty sounds and eclectic renderings. No simple sound trinkets here. No, there is an observance of tradition, and a love and respect for ancestors at work here. Mad respect, Asé.

Spiritual. Original. Beautiful. Peace.

Tom Krell is a painter of the abstract. Dips his brushes into the night sky, and drags horse hair across the canvas of your numbed nerve endings. What he has managed to do with so little is to construct the grandiose into small pill-sized songs. Songs much like dreams, in that after you awake, you rub the fleeting fragments out your eyes and try to reassemble them before their beauty evaporates forever. From his Just Once EP we are given “Suicide Dream,” and it’s the proverbial bullet with butterfly wings. Here it is expertly reinterpreted by Solar Bears, and boy does it leave a soft bruise on your threshing heart. I also added “Decisions,” let it coil around your ears like bejeweled vibrations, and reverberate dulcet tones within the six chambers of your delicate heart. Peace.


 
Listening to “Decisions” will coax you to hold someone close.
