The smell of desperation

Hey Everyone,

I don’t think we’ve ever been formally introduced. My name is Kevin Federline. I’m 6 feet tall, have brown hair and brown eyes. I enjoy horseback riding, long walks on the beach and the wind whipping through my hair. Ha ha ha.

And thus begins Kevin Federline’s web site. I can’t wait till the whole ball of wax gets rolling. This is exactly the kind of musical talent the business has been needing for so long now. Federline’s style of rapping should climb the charts successfully and prove that there really is room for another white rapper. So much so in fact, that I’m sure all the money dumped into his PR and marketing will be rewarded threefold. If nothing else, it should give him some lunch money that he can use on a bottle of Colt 45 and some Brut aftershave.

Kara’s Flowers: “Myself”

Before there was Maroon 5, there was Kara’s Flowers, which consisted of four of the five members that would eventually make up Maroon 5. They only released one full length CD, Fourth World, and “Myself” is a great example of the group’s potential at the time. With frontman Adam Levine’s distinct vocals anchoring the quiet/loud track, “Myself” could easily be mistaken as a Maroon 5 track.

I’m not a big fan of “Maroon 5” as a name for a rock band, but it’s far better than “Kara’s Flowers.”

The Decemberists: “16 Military Wives”

Known mostly for their theatrical indie pop, The Decemberists recorded this surprisingly catchy track for their most recent album, Picaresque. Against a driving acoustic guitar, frontman Colin Meloy moves through lyrics that criticize American foreign policy, the media and the pseudo-pundits in Hollywood. Politics have never been this fun!

Listen to a clip here, although its brevity doesn’t do the track justice.
