Okay, so there are three songs that I just cannot get out of my head this summer:
"International Player's Anthem" -Outkast still manages to amaze me. The sampling is key. Who knew an obscure r&b song from the 70s could be so poignant underneath dirty south beats and rapping about settling down.
"Potential Break-up Song" Okay, two Disney tween queens aren't neccessarily what you would expect on any playlist of mine, but Aly & AJ deliver a totally adorable and precocious song. The girls are both sassy and self-assertive without being overtly sexual (okay, a little sexual).
"Let It Go" Unlike most pop/r&b singers these days, Keyshia Cole can actually sing. In all honesty Lil' Kim adds nothing to the track and Missy Elliot's only real contribution is the hook. But it reminds me of something that would have been around in the early to mid 90s and it's ridiculously addictive to listen to.
Download these songs now! Or just go to itunes. They're all sort of fabulous.
So I think I may have a place to live for fall. We're going to put down the deposit on Wednesday. I would be living with two of the coolest ladies I know and two of my best friends. I hope everything works out well. I really feel like I'm at the point in my life that I can handle more responsibility. And after this past year, it'd really be great to have a sense of stability at Montevallo. I love that place, but it's fucking nuts there sometimes. I can't wait for this semester to start. No matter what, I really feel that God is setting me on the right path for me right now.
