The Hood Internet & BBU


By the time you read this, I’ll have departed to Chicago for this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival. However, due to a concoction on laziness, lack of funds, and apathy, I won’t be attending Friday’s festival festivities. Sigh.

However, all is not lost. After a relaxing afternoon exploring the city, I plan on heading to the Life During Wartime Dance Party.

A chance to see mash-up extraordinaires The Hood Internet, is one too great to pass up.

If you haven’t heard of the Chicago champions of vs. remix and mash-up, I advise checking out their website, www.thehoodintenet.com, and downloading the MP3s down below.

Better still, BBU is opening. The Chicago up-and-coming rap group has already released one the best songs of the summer in “Chi Don’t Dance.” If you don’t have it, grab it now.

Right Click + Save Link As:

Lil Wayne vs. The Bloody Beetroots - We Are From Venice (Lil Weezy Ana) – The Hood Internet
Kid Sister vs. Prince - Damn Girl, I Wanna Be Your Lover – The Hood Internet
R. Kelly vs. Broken Social Scene - I'm a Flirt (Shoreline) – The Hood Internet

Chi Don’t Dance – BBU

Since I'm in Chicago, I won’t really have a chance to sit down and post any extensive critical entries, but I promise to post MP3s all weekend. Check back tomorrow to hear more music you should be listening to.

Hey TJ! Dude, I *love* the songs you've posted from The Hood Internet...amAAzing!!! (I only wish the "Kid Sister vs. Prince-Damn Girl, I Wanna Be Your Lover" song were 10 minutes, not 2 minutes!!). Please keep on updating with freaky cool-ass dance music; it keeps me going.

Thanks!
