Sunday Scoop V. 5
Initially drawn in by Mark Ronson’s fantastic cover for upcoming album Record Collection, I caught myself listening to Lose It on repeat. Reminiscent of The Beatles, Ronson creates the perfect beat for Ghostface Killah to lay down on. And on the topic of catchy beats, a bit of reggaeton with some strobed synths in “We Can’t Fly”. This one makes you feel like you’re right on the beach.. perhaps Ibiza?

Would a Scoop be complete without Cudi? No. MORE FROM HIS UPCOMING ALBUM and a track off of Perajok & Kanye West Presents: G.O.O.D. Ass Mixtape. Mr. Rager’s melancholy lyrics attribute to the more serious nature of his new album, though his delivery remains delightfully satiating. PS. Rumors of Kanye’s new album something along the lines of Dark Twisted Fantasy.

and for the cherry on top of your Sundae.. Cudi made #1 on ELLE’S 25 list of reasons to look forward to the rest of the year.
When rapper Kid Cudi Released Man on the Moon: The End of Day last fall, his emotive hip-hop outcooled every thugged-out MC on the market. Almost overnight the 26 year-old, dressed in skinny jeans and a thick-frame glasses, sold nearly half a million albums, lent vocals to Jay-z’s “Already Home” on The Blueprint 3, and became a lead player in HBO’s dramedy How to Make it in America. On October 26, he’ll release Man on the Moon Pt. 2: The Legend of Mr. Rager, a sophmore effort that up-stages his first, whith booming choruses (Cudi sings — sans Auto-Tune, at that!), raging electro beats, and a rock-rooted single, “Erase Me,” which features that other hypercool skinny-jean-clad rapper, Kanye West. –Julie Vadnal

You are a cinema.. I could watch you forever. Happy New York Fashion Week everyone, and pardon my lack of posts as of late. I have been overwhelmed by the city streets which have evolved into runways, streetwalkers turned models strutting on concrete stages, invisible cameras zooming at every block. Manhattan has somehow become Paris

Yes, this is overdue, but holy Kanye I’m so impressed. I’m still a bit bitter about trying to purchase tickets 5 minutes after they went on sale last tuesday for Kanye’s surprise concert at Bowery Ballroom to realize they had sold out, but I forgive you Yeezy. This album is beautiful. Here are a few

TGIF, RIGGHHTTT? This week was utter pandemonium.. and I hope to unleash the fury on the dancefloor tonight (with some Four Loko? RIP). Anyways, I came across two tracks this past week that really kept the freshness up on some older goodies, and it occurred to me how crucial it is to appreciate the old

I couldn’t really be more excited about this post. I could rave about all of these artists all night but it would be pretty repetitive and if you know anything about us here at the Brothel, you know and have read about how much we love them. So happy listening and HAPPY VETERANS DAY! The

Heyyy Beaterssss… Though you JUST MIGHT be tired of Walking on a Dream remixes, this unique spin by RAC (doesn’t that say enough) stands out from the crowd. In my opinion, it’s up there with Treasure Fingers. Do yourself a favor and listen. Also, a preview of Wolfgang Gartner’s latest funky electronic release from Ultra Records, Illmerica.

SSSSSSSunday has arrived and I’m thrilled because the Scoop’s volumes have reached DOUBLE DIGITS. To celebrate, I have some presents for YOU. First off, I literally cannot get enough of Mark Ronson.
