as the album gets closer and closer to leaking on the internet (hey i have to get familiar by june 13), mad decent dropped the drop the line video, feat. rearranged audio that is presumably how the song will sound on the album. i dunno.... santi's verse was tacked on the end, there's no "hold the line" chorus vocal and the instrumental's stretched out a bit. personally i liked the dj edit better.

also, this is just so dope. lady gaga... oh man. to quote an ok coen bros movie, "you fascinate me."

trillah

some guy put together a venn diagram (oh hell its one of those visual writing tools you have to use in second grade) of michael jackson, famous musicians you may or may not associate with the king of pop on a regular basis, and the mj songs they sampled from him. it's a cool list, i've been thinking all day about other examples and could only come with two he missed.

Outsidaz - Macosa (feat. Eminem) (diggin in the crates for that one)

interpolating Wanna Be Startin Somethin from Thriller

(my digital copy is mp4 format which isn't supported but you know what it sounds like)

Louis La Roche - Love (i had for a long time attributed this song to Thomas Bangalter (Daft Punk Dude) because of a mean trick some internet thug played on cyberspace last valentine's day)

samples It's The Falling In Love from Off The Wall

i reached back like a pimp and i smacked the ho

[SCENE: sitting around a campfire. at dusk. someone (no names but its me) plays an ugly rendition of a famous beatles song on a martin (!) guitar that is not his]

"blackbird singing in the dead of night...."

"homie scored a key he's gonna fly...."

"wait what song is that?"

"oh god... its.... damn who is it by?"

"i think it starts with an s. swimmy, swammy, supersonic?"

"no i don't think."

"hear let me look it up on my iphone."

[a minute passes]

"dynamite hack!"

"i was way off."

"i'm gonna download it."

[three minutes later]

"yeah that wasn't as good as i remembered it."
