Kreayshawn, the female hip-hopper with some friends in Odd Future and and a decently annoying voice, has stumbled into a hit by reciting popular clothing brands and making references to drugs all over a kicking wobbly bass track. Who came up with that formula? and knew it would be successful?
While nothing that seems all that original - clearly the "Gucci Gucci" has caught on quite well, averaging a little over 100,000 views a day. Nastiers, dirtier and possessing less pop appeal than Kesha - I'll admit that Kreayshawn is a bit of a guilty pleasure. Despite the wack hook and her voice, I still enjoy this song.
"I got the swag and its pumping out my ovaries...". The lyrics are clever....
If you're hip to Odd Future aka OFWGKTA aka Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All then you probably already know that de facto group leader Tyler, The Creator is releasing his album Goblin today, May 10th. You might also know that Tyler is doing a special show at Troubadour tonight to promote.
Lets say you weren't at Coachella, you don't read the New York Times, you don't watch Jimmy Fallon and the realities of rising rap artists just escape you - then you may not know that. SO, this serves as official notice that one of the most talked about MC's of the year, from one of the most sought after groups in the game, is doing a special pre-album release show at The Troubadour.
To make it even cooler, the only way you can get tickets to show is to line up at Amoeba Music in Hollywood at 4 pm today, purchase "Goblin," hope you get that golden ticket and then make the trek to the Troub.
Definitely expect rowdiness and, most likely, some cameos from other members of the OFWGKTA clan.
Here is his disturbing video for "Yonkers," which is on the album.
