The Best of “The Best of 2010”

December 28, 2010

Waddup?  Though we do consider ourselves gods at That Whiiite, we’re humble enough to give it up to the interwebs when they’re on point.  We found some of the best “Best of 2010’s” from around the way and wanted to share with y’all:

– Of course we have to start with the infamous Pitchfork’s Best of 2010 for songs and albums.  For the most part, this is a pretty comprehensive list of indie music and selected electronic and hip-hop.  Various jokes:  Kanye w/ a 10.0, LCD Soundsystem at #2 and FlyLo at (only) #13.

– The underrated Blah Blah Science has top songs and albums for indie/electronic/hip-hop.  I really like these lists.

– I don’t really read Bloggerhouse much, but they had a cool Top 25 albums for underground hip-hop.  Considering I’ve been screaming that Hip Hop is dead for a few years now, I should probably check a few of these out.

– Dancing Astronaut started putting out their Top 50 songs today.  This should be a comprehensive list of the biggest club staples.  Put Illmerica in that top 5, fam.

– Salacious Sound has a list of top dubstep tracks for the year that they put out back in July if you’re in the mood.  Definitely a good reference point.

– If you’re a trance head, we posted Armin’s Top 20 for the year the other day – I’m still waiting for Above and Beyond’s list!

Jay Electronica x Mountain Dew Code Red

December 24, 2010

What?  Is this real?  Don’t you need to have music out before you can do endorsements?  I never understood the rapper/soft drink endorsement connection, but this is the best one since Biggie’s infamous Pepsi Freestyle or at least those Busta Rhymes Sprite commercials in the 90s.  I didn’t even know Code Red still existed, but now I guess the 30 white kids who listen to Jay Elec are now enlightened.  Wasn’t Act II supposed to come out last Christmas?  C’mon son.  I hope someone is either fired or promoted over this.  If this plays during the Super Bowl I’m stripping naked and running to Alaska to live with the grizzly bears.

JJ – Kills

December 24, 2010

So I left some homemade pizzelles and espresso for Santa, and this is what he leaves for me.  JJ, whose debut album N2 is one of my favorite albums, came out with this mixtape this morning.  Yes, now even Swedish singers are dropping mixtapes.  I would tell you what she sings over, but half the enjoyment of this is hearing and taking the seconds to absorb what she’s singing over.  This is what you fucking get Thomas Friedman.  This is basically “Ecstasy” for an entire mixtape.  The singer talks about lost love, getting high, getting drunk and killing the tracks she’s singing over, which actually makes it the most topical mixtape of all time.  If Wayne raps like he’s always high, the singer from JJ sings like she’s always on heroin.  I feel like someone is going to do a symposium in 2015 about foreign countries’ interpretations of American culture and this will be the centerpiece.  This will probably only be enjoyed by bloggers, sociologists and my girlfriend.  People who voted against Proposition 19:  pat yourselves on the back right about now.  This mixtape makes me feel like a dog enthusiast watching Michael Vick’s 4th quarter comeback last week.  Tracklist and DL link after the jump.  Merry christmas, internet.***

DL:  JJ – Still

DL:  JJ – Believe

DL:  JJ – Kill Them

 

*** And this was before I heard the Nikki Minaj and T.I. vocal samples?!?!?!

Nas x Cookin Soul x Don Cannon – Lost Tapes 1.5

December 24, 2010

I ain’t mad at this.  Cookin Soul’s jazzy production is perfect for Nas.  Some great songs here, though most of them are post-Stillmatic.  Still wish Cookin Soul could do some original production.  What version of “The World is Yours” is this???  Tracklist and DL after the jump.  BTW, can Nas drop a real album soon??  Distant Relatives doesn’t count.

DL:  Nas – The World Is Yours (Cookin Soul Remix)

DL:  Nas – Got Yourself a Gun (f. Notorious B.I.G.) (Cookin Soul Remix)

DL:  Nas – Thugz Mansion
