Shabazz Palaces Emcee Ishmael Butler & Oneohtrix Point Never Join Forces As 319 On Latest [adult swim] 2017 Singles Release "The Rapture" (Sub Pop/Warp Records)


"Oneohtrix Point Never (0PN) teams up with longtime inspiration and Spiritual Rap guru Ishmael Butler, The Palaceer of Shabazz Palaces/Digable Planets. Listen to new track "The Rapture," below," Warp Records wrote within a 26/09/2017-published press release. "0PN and Butler met and produced "The Rapture" on first meeting this Summer, creating the experiment of verses and spine-tingling dances of percussion. The track premieres as a unique addition to the [adult swim] singles club," it continued. "The Rapture" is actually credited to "319"—a newly-formed rapper-producer duo consisting of Ishamel "Butterfly" Butler AKA Palaceer Lazaro and Electronic producer Oneohtrix Point Never AKA Daniel Lopatin of Ford & Lopatin. It's been quite a busy year for both Butler and Lopatin with Shabazz Palaces releasing not one, but two full-length albums on the same July day, Quazarz: Born On a Gangster Star and Quazarz vs. The Jealous Machines; 0PN composed the score for Joshua Safdie & Ben Safdie's critically-acclaimed Robert Pattinson-starring crime-drama Good Time, which already won the Soundtrack Award at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival.


319 isn't exactly the first time either party has collaborated with largely unsuspected artists: in addition to Shabazz Palaces, Ishamel Butler is part of Funk-tastic super-group WOKE along with Flying Lotus, Thundercat, and George Clinton, as well as visual artist collective Black Constellation... while Oneothix Point Never collaborated with Iggy & The Stooges frontman and "The Godfather of Punk" Iggy Pop for his chilling Good Time Original Motion Picture Soundtrack closer "The Pure & The Damned." I reached out to Palaceer Laz via email on a whim Wednesday afternoon, inquiring about "The Rapture" and a potential 319 album, to which he said: he and Dan Lopatin "plan to complete an album. As you can imagine, finding the time to do it is the only obstacle." [adult swim]'s 2017 singles series will run through year's end and will still feature 31 more stream-only submissions from the likes of Brian Eno, Colin Stetson, D∆WN, Dinosaur Jr. Flying Lotus, Jonwayne, Julian Casablancas + The Voidz, Knxwledge, Low End Theory—AKA Daddy Kev, Nobody, The Gaslamp Killer & D-Styles—Migos, Moor Mother, Run The Jewels, Thundercat, Washed Out, and Your Old Droog, amongst other participating artists. While we await next week's mystery single, the 22 previously-released 2017 [adult swim] singles (excluding #14 DOOM feat. Jay Electronica) are all currently available to stream online.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
