First Report Back From Gnarls Barkley's "Secret Show" in LA
Right at this very moment, Gnarls Barkley should be approaching the stage for their "Myspace Secret Show" at the Roxy in Los Angeles (which wasn't much of a secret at all, but that's probably part of the plan.) Some okayplayers are already reporting back on the lay of the land:
I'm the only black guy in line for Gnarls Barkley
"This really has nothing to do with race, all of you race sensitive types, I was just trying to get your attention.
So I'm reporting to you live from The Roxy in L.A. On the sidekick, trying to pass the time in line for this free show, it's 4 hours before showtime..... I had a bad experience with a free Kanye show so I'm here extra early. It's my day of from work so I'm thinking I'mma get me some soul tonight......I haven't heard the whole album yet so I'm just going off of "Crazy" that this will be at least a little soulful.
I get here and......I smell reefer (c) Chappelle
There's like 10 people so far...and it's like standing in line with Fall Out Boy."

St. Elsewhere is so boring to me. Dangermouse original projects always seem like they would be good (Doom,Gorillaz,Ceelo), but they always end up being boring and disappointing.

You guys should try and a hold of Skwatta Kamp. It's a hip-hop group from my country, South Africa. They kick serious ass. Get sponsors or something to get them to go the States. They'll bring the house down.
I think you'll be able to order from www.kalahari.net. Check out Washumkhukhu, their latest album. You'll find a whole new angle to music. I've been working in Nigeria for the past 3 years, but would love to check them out when I'm back home.
