Don't you hate when that happens? I was almost finished with the post and then I cleverly clicked the X button without thinking and closed the window. GREAT.
So, let's try to recap...
1.
Orlando Magic beat the Chicago Bulls
(111-82) for their seventh win in a row--season high!
Daaaaaayummm! They also pushed the Bulls out of their spot in the Eastern Conference final playoffs. Too bad MJ's not playing anymore... Vince Carter had 23 points, Dwight Howard made 18 points and 11 rebounds in the first half. I'm glad Vince Carter has been on his game recently, because when he's not, he's REALLY not. Things are looking up for the Magic; let's just hope they can keep it up in the playoffs.
2. Something I really like right now.
Jay Electronica's Exhibit C.

Okay, so my best friend introduced me to Jay Electronica and he's all into philosophical hooplah and whatnot, so he really likes Jay Electronica for his lyrics because he doesn't just talk about bitchez and hoz or getting money and getting paid. So I've heard some of his music before but it's really starting to grow on me. I played it on my radio show tonight (digression:
Listen to the Classic Throwback with me, Professor Gnargnar, every Thursday from 10pm-midnight eastern time at wmhb.org for some good ol' hip hop music), and I realized how much of the shiznits Jay Electronica is. Definitely worth a listen.
3. Kind of old news, but the
Gorillaz came out with their newest album,
Plastic Beach, on March 3. It's pretty good, I'd give it a 6 out of 10, but that's just because I'm not so

into the more eclectic stuff and I guess there was a lot of hype about it before it came out so I had high expectations. If you don't want to buy it off of iTunes (because that costs an arm and a leg) and you don't want to download it (because you feel bad for taking away from the already impoverished music industry--NOT), you can stream it free from nahright
here. It's worth a listen, although you can't skip songs, you've got to listen to the whole thing all the way through. It's kind of nice not to have the ability to skip around and listen to snippets of songs. Maybe that's just because it takes me three billion hours to do my French homework so it's nice to have some music to go with that. (I just remembered that I think I might have written about this last time...)
Most catchy song:
Superfast Jellyfish by Gorillaz
4. For those of you who are
Johnny Cupcakes fans (all five of you?), JC put out his dates and locations for his next
suitcase tour. You can find a list of the dates on the Johnny Cupcakes site
here. That should be pretty exciting.

4. OKAY, last thing. I'm playing this new song by
Travis McCoy (yes, the guy from Gym Class Heroes) that's called
Billionaire (ft. Bruno Mars) that's SO catchy. Take a gander and this ditty will definitely be stuck in your head for the next two weeks. Might I also add that I have always and still believe that Travis McCoy is one of the most gorgeous men on earth? Sorry, I don't know if you knew that it was a girl that was writing these blogs, but yeah...I dig his tats. Too bad he and Katy Perry broke it off.
Anyways, it's time for me to study for my French midterm. Give some feedback if you like what you're reading (or don't). Bon week-end all!
