Love this cover.
Girl makes rhyme seem so easy.
Throwing hood vibes without even seemin’ sleazy.
Doin’ the running man like it ain’t even cheesy.
Harmonising like her voice just some little breezy.
Oh.
Discovered it through this Mahala article, which you should probably read. Maybe liking Disco Taxi is un-PC, but as one of the ‘born frees’, I just wanna dance, and this is catchy as hells yeah.
No frills, no fuss, no crowd-pleasing small talk… just focus on the music… loved them. More pics to follow.

So ambiguous, so loaded… what does he mean??????
Meet my Cali BFF Lana del Ray. She used to be ‘all indie and shizz’ and call herself ‘Lizzy Grant’ and she ‘walked on the emo side’, then she realised there was more fun to be had if she made herself ‘a little more accessible’ (by putting on a nice dress and doing her hair and smiling and looking like she didn’t take life too seriously, even if her music does).
LDL also got collagen in her lips, which may be because then we’d all laugh at her for getting collagen in her lips and see her ‘human and deeply imperfect’ side, or maybe she thought we’d like them. Am not phased either way cos I really like her music, especially her music video for Video Games. She reminds me of when I used to live in a David Lynch movie and used to hang out in the muggy summer air in California and drink martinis and sneak into hotels and get chased by paparazzi. Those were the days. Watch:
I am a HUGE fan of the Re: brand at Woolworths and just love their new campaign starring Zoe Kravitz (daughter of rocker Lenny Kravitz). Check out this awesome behind the scenes video they sent me. The campaign features a bunch of musos including SA house legend Spoek Mathambo and Zander from Gazelle. Big ups to @Woolworths_SA for not only producing fab clothing (LOVE the new Studio W stuff) but also world-class shoots.
Was SO scared to watch it in case we had another ‘Born This Way’ disaster, but so relieved to say I love this.
Frankenstein.
Splash.
Oh Brother Where Art Though.
True Blood.
Children of the Corn.
From Dusk Til Dawn.

Love my Gaga again. Especially my freaky mermaid Gaga being kept in a dirty bath tub in a barn in the farmlands. There’s something about that archetype that resonates with the modern day feminine principle It’s so cool.
La Muse has put together a gorgeous collection that showcases the style of Amy Winehouse. Love love love it. Even went to a party dressed as Amy once. Before I got the iPhone, so no photographic evidence.
Available in retail outlets from 1 October.
This is Tommy Hilfiger’s son in his new music vid. Right now, T-Hil is reclining in a leather chair in his study at the Hampties, feeling bleak about life.
Been trying to count how many tats Rich Hill got but I keep getting distracted by him relighting his cigarillo when it goes out. I’ll bet he gets real mad behind the scenes and throws that cigarillo ‘into the bin with force’ (via #whiteboyproblems).
Also wish they’d used a longer corridor to film this in cos the whole three steps forward three steps back thing is making me dizzy, but maybe that is just Rich Hills Skilzz.. While this vid and its content is highly ‘non-aspirational’ for someone like me, I can appreciate that there must be some drunk, stoned chick out there with no self-esteem who might find this guy attractive and / or many ‘lost rich boyz’ ‘out dere’ who ‘feel this bros swag’ and retweet him to their homies.

I knew one of their songs when we hit Grand West to watch them on Friday night, but I’m now obsessed. We even got to hang out with the lead singer:
Okay I joke I joke I kid I kid it’s just Doc. But how similar are they??? (Doc is better-looking)
Glad to see Danny is nice to my girl Tay-Tay. Anyway it was amazing. If you don’t know the Script, you should start with this song:
And then move onto this one:
Off you go!
