Best Thing Ever: Beastie Boys - So Watcha Want Live on Fallon w/ The Roots

Because everybody loves white rappers in cardigan sweaters and slip-on Vans, here we have the Beastie Boys being "coaxed" by a stammering Jimmy Fallon to perform "So Watcha Want," probably as a reward for forcing the audience to listen to them talk about reissuing Check Your Head.



Raah!

Also 100 posts, yay.

Best Thing Ever: Scratch - Too Late ft. Damon Albarn and Talib Kweli

Former Root Scratch got together a whole bunch'a his buddies for his upcoming Gold Dust LP Loss 4 Wordz. Along with the usual hip-hop incestuousness (Kanye "Gayfish" West, Musiq Soulchild, M.O.P.) comes a welcome surprise: Damon Albarn doing his mournful croon over a spacey Kool & the Gang-flavored beat.



It's great music to chill out to, and if nothing else just whets my appetite for a new Gorillaz or GB&Q record.
