EARTHQUAKEY PEOPLE

Steve Aoki featuring Rivers Cuomo // Earthquakey People

I may be one of the few people that feel this way, but in the past few years Steve Aoki's music has not been as great as it once was, but "Earthquakey People" is one catchy tune. A great song to bring in the new year. Thus, Happy New Years! Party as has as you can. New Year's Eve and Day are one of the few days that anyone can get as rowdy as they like without anyone saying anything to you.

I AM THE BEST

2NE1 // I AM THE BEST (내가 제일 잘나가)

I love these girls! My favorite girl group out of KPOP. I've never been a fan of the innocent naive concept that many girl groups do and 2NE1 has never attempted it. They're so bad ass! And the fashion, I can't even. Totally inspired by Japanese street fashion, especially the looks that consist the mixing of different textures and patterns: studded leather jackets, graphic tops, bondage accessories. Love it, Love it, Love it all!

Devendra Banhart X Oliver Peoples
I have been a long time fan of Devendra Banhart. Early on, I would have never expected him to take part in any mainstream marketing, but a person's interest changes through time, right? I still love him. I love Oliver Peoples frames as well. A great combination.

THIS AIN'T BUBBLE GUM

GD & TOP // 뻑이가요 (Knock Out)

If you know me (or if you don't then you're about to find out something about me), you know how much I love K-POP. It gets me dancing with their ear-catching phrases and head-bobbing beats. I've even found myself adding their engrish to my everyday vocabulary. G-H-E-T-T-O E-L-E-C-T-R-O, anyone?

Big Bang is one of, if not my favorite male group artists. I really love how they play around with different genres, from Taeyang's smooth R&B tunes, G-Dragon's catchy electro-pop jams, and TOP's hip-hop swag. Yet, they're all not afraid to switch it up. And that's exactly what GD & TOP's latest album has a mixture of. The album has been on heavy rotation since I downloaded it. I think my iTunes is getting tired of it.. but I'm not. I've even created a "High High" ring tone for my Blackberry. It's that good.

I cannot express how excited I was when the "Knockout" music video was released. It oozes swag and sex appeal without being vulgar or tacky. I also love the styling that was done for the both of them. The fancy dress suits, the fly track suits, and the studded leather jackets... I DIE. Do I spot Burberry S/S 2011 on you GD? Oh, and the Christian Louboutins? I love it all.
