What's his story? He was quite the asshole about The War on Drugs a few weeks ago.
I don't know if its depression + dickhead or straight up dickhead. His apology to them was great too: "Sorry about that, when I talked shit about your sound it was because I'd never actually heard of you ..."

Post Malone was one the butt of one of my favorite jokes in all of Season Two of Atlanta (the episode where they escape the pajama party and end up in the frat house with the huge Confederate flag).

Jesus. My 10 year old is not gonna be happy. That's gotta be a scary flight. So many shitty comments on Twitter.

Full disclosure - his hits are definitely a guilty pleasure for me

I'm going to listen to my first Post Malone song to celebrate his arrival in the Hudson Valley. Which one?

I’m sure everyone 10 years older or younger than me would say the same thing about many of hip hop artists I like, but Post Malone is pretty high up the list of artists whose popularity I genuinely do not understand.

Seriously, same. I've never (knowingly) heard a Post Malone song. I just know he looks like an idiot.

I've given him about 90 seconds now and I'm convinced this is (fill in the drug) music.

Funny. I was specifically thinking of a song called "Lucid Dreams" by Juice WRLD, not Post Malone. Also (fill in the drug) music, but that track samples Sting's "Shape of My Heart".

You have to be in the exact right relatively rare mood but when you are The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion is the best band in history.

Every time I listen to Jon Spencer I hear the ghost of Frank Zappa. Fun. Diabolical. Blow shit up. Wreck it. Cuz when you change the station the next song you listen to sucks anyway.

Years ago, the great RL Burnside recorded one of the nastiest albums imaginable (in the good way) with Jon Spencer. "A Ass Pocket of Whiskey" - fantastic stuff.



Near the end of this tune, Burnside and Spencer have one of the greatest bits of dialogue in music history. It involves potato chips, money and boots up the ass...

Finally getting around to giving the Shires album a listen today. 3 tracks in and this shit is rock solid.

Love the addition of Buddy Strong -- live shows have more energy and are more fun. I even enjoy That Girl is You.

Pretty awesome when you re-listen to an old album you haven't heard in long time but used to listen the shit out of.

In a related story, "Mercury" by American Music Club still holds up 25 years later.

Not the typical "spins" tune...but new Afrobeat/Jazz from London.

as a commenter stated on YouTube: "Nothin' bad gonna happen while this music play."
