How to hire an SEO expert

This is the standard against which all SEO experts should be measured. If your SEO consultant isn't a rapper you're really not spending your budget the right way.



Via Videogum, thanks Adam.

Odd Future on Jimmy Fallon

You might have seen this last week, but if you didn't, watch Odd Future on Jimmy Fallon performing 'Sandwitches'. Exciting.



Thanks, Andy.

Full Ol’ Dirty Bastard documentary on Hulu

Dirty: One Word Can Change The World is available for viewing on Hulu. Here's a description from a review:
Dirty effectively straddles the fine line of paying homage to an artist while still examining his negative attributes. Although one of ODB's children, son Barson, makes an apperance, noticeably absent are his other children and their mothers, who would obviously have a different, perhaps more demeaning perspective of him. But this omission is understandable, since the mothers have most likely moved on and probably want to stay away from the public scrutiny that comes from being involved with someone as controversial as the Ol' Dirty Bastard.


Thanks, Seth!

Randy Moss Remix

This Randy Moss remix is helped immensely by the fact that Randy Moss always speaks totally and completely in rhythm. Straight cash, homie.



Thanks, Jon!

Recently, the Mighty Mighty Bosstones went back on tour.

These can not all be a coincidence.

Song of the Summer 2010

I saw Click Track refer to Cee Lo's Fuck You as the song of the summer. I'd agree, but on the other hand, I don't remember the last Song of the Summer I liked. Maybe it was that Kevin Costner song from Robin Hood.

Also, I finally had a reason to make a Keep Calm poster.

List of 1000 Jazz Standards

This list features 1000 Jazz standards. For some reason, the list is ranked, letting us know that while 1930's Body and Soul is the number one Jazz standard, 1946's To Each His Own is number 1000. How you quantify the 1000 top Jazz standards is so far beyond me, it's on another blog, but these guys have done it.

Beck covering Yanni

Not much to say, is there?

Juliana Hatfield and Direct To Fan

Juliana Hatfield takes the direct to fan model a little further.

For the price of $1,000, I will write an original song tailor-made just for you, to you and about you, and I will record it in the mostly acoustic style of my newest album, 'Peace and Love,'.


She's only doing 20 of these total, and $1K is pretty steep, so this doesn't strike me as desperate.
