Pop-culture: Ke$ha

I don't care what you think, Ke$ha is awesome, obviously.

Apparently, she's smart? But her interviews tend to be fun and funny, and she does a good job of showing her sarcastic, witty humor.

Anyway, these are teh roxxorz:

100/100

This is one is sure to be a hammyjammy classic.

I don't see how this eletro-synth-pop sensation isn't going to take drunken college kids by a storm. I dedicate this one to Ankoor, who at first hated Tik Tok, but came around and we danced, and it was good.

Ke$ha - We R Who We R

98/100

This one goes heavy, unlike her other pop-tastic songs, but I love fat heavy beats, so booyah! Does this make anyone feel a sort of M.I.A meets Cool Kids vibe? Particularly, Fire Fire and Galang crossed with Jingling and One, Two. Slash, I just remembered how beast the Cool Kids are. Dirty.

Ke$ha - Sleazy

New Era Hip Hop Lyricists: Hoodie Allen and more

The sophistication and the depth of hip hop, in my opinion, has increased by leaps and bounds. Whether through sampling or witty subtlety, hip hop has progressed since its birth. I especially think that the recent school of hiphop heads, the college kids, are the most apt at presenting this. So without further ado, I present to you:

99/100

An internet (s)mash hit. Remix of the... well its kind of obvious, so yeah.

Hoodie Allen - You Are Not A Robot (feat. Marina & The Diamonds)

Bonus: The original. Trippy

100/100

Amazing track. I've been stuck on this son for a while. This one samples the Two Door Cinema Club song by the name Undercover Martyn. Since its an amazing song in of itself, you should definitely check it out.
