Arcade Fire & Spike Jones: Scenes from the suburbs

Who doesn't love teenage angst? Who doesn't love war torn suburbs like in Red Dawn?  Well now if you are not in the US or Canada you can get both by watching the Spike Jones collaboration with the Arcade Fire on a film short called "Senes from the Suburbs."  You can stream it at Mubi and for those of us in in North America here is a trailer. At least it is something.  

Don Trip - Letter to my Son

I can't believe I missed this.  This is one of the most Raw and Honest songs I have heard in a long time.  I watched the original video and it was even more raw than this, but really worth a listen even if your not a fan of Hip Hop.  Don Trip is one of these artists that is making it big by leveraging the power of the internets and lolz to spread the word.  

Tip:  This may not be something you want to listen to if kids are in the room.
