also, whoops

oh my goodness i forgot to tell ya, URGE has launched and we've been raging ever since. I just posted a thousand words on my R&B blog about New Edition Day (May 19, 2006, ATL GA) and underrated New Edition-related tunes, most of them from Bell Biv Devoe's Hootie Mack. "Above the Rim" is such a great song. (PS: the HEAT CAN SPARK IT UP BUT SHEED'll PUT YOU OUTTTT)

also matt sonzala is blogging about dallas on the hip-hop blog, and jon caramanica is writing about country and wondering, "can reba eat?" oh pithy jon, and jessica is writing about her "kelis' 'bossy' video"-style night with some scissors and hair to the tune of unrest's imperial ffrr. we love music, it's true.
