“On you’re your way to wonderful your gonna have to pass through alright,
And when you get to all right, take a good look around and get used to it because that may be as for as your gonna go” – Bill Withers
K’Naan & J Period Present – The Messengers: Bob Dylan
Not usually one to rep mixtapes, but always one to rep dylan. Check out the mixtape, see for yourself. It’s amazing how his influence has transcended races, creeds, and what have you.

Shout out to Isaac for the find…

Seinfeld Rockers- The Telephones
http://thetelephones.org/music.htm
I actually got to spend some time with the drummer Brian last week. I like their style and their return back to the almighty 3-minute rock your ass off track. If these songs sound catchy or familiar to you its because they are awesome. Check out what they got, and be on the lookout, their playing on Sept 23rd. Location to be announced.
PS: The lead singer looks like George Constanza.
A little taste of South Africa

Wale Interview on Thisis50.com
Wale sounding sharp on thisis50 – talks about his success through fate, hard work, and bringing in “the popular girl” so everyone can join in on his party. Dude’s got some business sense…

In respect for the artists, this album will only be available for download on CTK for the next week, so check it out now. I promise you will be more than pleasantly surprised with the storm brewing down south known as Fusion The Band.
Oldie (kinda) but a Goodie
Seeing Bela Fleck tonight in Central Park… getting prepped…
Black Keys Album: Magic Potion
This whole album is sweet. (It was released in 2006 says wikipedia). New favorite song, strange desire. But I highly encourage the all-to-rare itunes purchases on this one…
Serious sex vibes.
New Kid on the Block – Lots of Big Boy Backing
This videos a couple years old, but they are currently on a US tour. New Record produced by Peter Frampton. Not too shabby.
If you want to make a million bucks by the end of the month, I am sure you can find some guy who can take your work and throw it on a bunch of billboards. But for those who want to pursue real and long careers in art, music, entertainment, writing, or photography, I can be a great resource for you.
Someone learned how to shoot a commercial…!
Yo doobie, this ones for you brother.
I know its not music but….
This guy is hilarious…

Janis Joplin- Live in Toronto 1970 – Nothing better.
The New Princess of Potty Mouth
Her ‘ode to our beloved former president George W. Bush
Fleet Foxes – He Doesn’t Know Why
When I watched this I thought I was watching an old Peter, Paul, and Mary or the Byrds from 1964, but no, this was made in the Pacific Northwest this past year. Love the goats!

It’s UK day on Ctoksmusic!
This girl is blowing up all over Europe (and what seems like everywhere else) but hasn’t yet made it to the US. Perhaps she is too risque for us backwoods Americans? Or we’re just too busy listening to Myley Cyrus and Flo Rida? Check out this old western tribute with awesomely hilarious lyrics. Score one for UK pop!
Lily Allen – Not Fair
This is her more famous song, performed on Jimmy Kimmel
Fleet Foxes
Looking to get hip to the hot new sound that’s set to sweep the nation? If so, then you’d better start listening to “baroque harmonic pop jams.”
That buzz-term-in-the-making is how the Fleet Foxes describe their twee indie-rock sound. It doesn’t have quite the same ring as, say, “grunge” or “hyphy,” but it’s catching on at a remarkable rate – especially in our neck of the woods. – Jim Harrington

Music Video Below: Very interesting video and it definitely picks up at the end… enjoy.

Good ‘ol DC vibin tunes. Check out ‘Betterside’, or my personal favorite ‘Diamond Ring’… soo smooth. But you have to become a fan to get the full jam. Totally worth it.
Chromeo
Chromeo – Momma’s Boy from Vice Records on Vimeo.
Bio from myspace: hilarious.
Chromeo is P-Thugg and Dave 1: best friends since their adolescence, virtuoso musicians, walking hip hop encyclopedias, and the only successful Arab/Jew partnership since the dawn of human culture…Chromeo is slick. Chromeo is dripping with reverb. Chromeo is Moog riffs, luxurious harmonies, macho guitar solos and real-deal songcraft. From the dancefloor-ready singles “Fancy Footwork” and “Tenderoni,” to the autobiographical Jew-boy ballad “Momma’s Boy,” to the epic sax-laden album closer “100%,” Fancy Footwork rolls you through a sleek, melodic world where all you need to worry about is whether you’ve got your sunglasses on and the right moves to keep up.
