Summertime blues
Well, I realized that posting a full on post was a little ambitious-I get real tired over the summer so a full post is a little much. So, instead, I'll just post a 5-song playlist weekly.

I would probably do away with these anomalies
So I don't often wait with anticipation for albums (usually because I don't know they are coming out). In this case though I'm aware of the release of The Root's new album How I Got Over (which is set to hit shelves/car stereo's on the 22nd). I'm usually not this excited, but, after hearing the first release from the album-a reworked version of a song I already love-I sit with bated breath.
The song is a re-worked version of Monsters Of Folk's "Dear God." The song starts-and ends-with the familiar chorus from the song. But in this case The Roots give it an even more somber tone that just seems very sad but gives the song an excellent hook. Hopefully there will be some jams on the album as well but I'd be fine too if the songs were a little more mellowed out than they usually are. Enjoy the single, hopefully I'll put up my thoughts on the album soonish.
