Friday Mixtape Volume

Jamie Kohns on May 4th, 2007

Welcome, everyone, to May. Cinco de Mayo is this weekend, so you should all enjoy a Margarita of the like as I plan to. As I sit here trying to come up with something witty or smart to say about the music on this week's mixtape, I find I'm coming up completely blank. So, here it is short and simple: It's all great music. Linkin Park sounds more emo. Mandy Moore is one of my guilty pleasures. That's it, enjoy.

In recognition of another great drinking holiday, I found this tasty macro shot of some of those sweet-n-sour fruits that both serve as the mixer base for Margaritas, and compliment a Corona well. These, by someone calls himself just FLM. Enjoy your margaritas and beer this weekend!

Britney Does San Diego

Jamie Kohns on May 2nd, 2007

Britney Spears returned to performing last night, after three years of getting married, knocked up, drunk, skanked out, and finally- bald. House Of Blues San Diego was the location for this 'secret' show under the fake band name The M+M's. The singer performed just 5 songs, including Toxic and Baby One More Time, and finished in less than 20 mintues. Some crazed idiots paid up to $125 on sites like Craig's List for tickets to the show…wait is 20 minutes still called a show?

R. Kelly Pens “”Rise Up”" as VA Tech Tribute

Jamie Kohns on May 2nd, 2007

So R. Kelly took some time from his busy schedule of touring, writing ridiculous hip-hoperas, and sexually assulting minors to write a ballad inspired by the recent events at Virginia Tech. The track will be released digitally on May 15 on Jive Records, who will donate 100% of the profits to the Hokie Spirit Memorial Fund. The effort might be well-intended, but the clip of the track on R's myspace leaves me thinking "what good is 100% of the profits, if nobody buys the crapy track?". I'm sure I'll be proven wrong…there are still R. Kelly fans in the world…somewhere.

Freestyle rap prodigy Jin has also done a tribute to the victims at VT- which you can download from his myspace site.
