Perfect song for reflecting on last night and preparing for this weekend.
Miguel has released three excellent three-song mini-mixtapes this year (for free!), and you should download all three of them right now.

Attention
Killer Mike is absolutely on top of his shit throughout the entire album, but I’m sitting here listening to “Reagan”, and I feel like my insides are being shredded to bits. It really pisses me off when people denounce rap music as being all about mistreating women or drinking champagne or using Kanye West as the exception to the rule. Mike speaks with such conviction, such anger on this track, and I can’t help but feel angry and upset and hopeless, too. Please; four sweaty boys with guitars got nothing on this.

Perfect music for a late night with the windows open and a slight breeze coming through.

The Oh Hello’s - “Lay Me Down”
Oh hey guys. Long time no music. Here’s some deliciousness I found on Spotify the other day. The entire album is pay what you want on their website. Go check it out!
The Lumineers - “Flapper Girl”
I just feel like lying out on the field next to the library in the sun and falling asleep to this love song that sounds just like America. Today, I am yearning to return to the open fields and warm weather of Texas.
