Ryan Dombal, Blogger "Lookin' Boy," Hotstylz (feat. Yung Joc)
Like an entire classic '80s Eddie Murphy movie squeezed into one hilarious hip-hop video. "Girls Do What They Want," The Maine The universal high school experience summed up in one Warped-approved hook: "Girls do what they want/Boys do what they can." "If I Never See Your Face Again," Rihanna and Maroon 5 Rihanna even makes Adam Levine (sorta) interesting on this one. And they said it couldn't be done. Tango & CashWhat's missing from nearly every summer blockbuster nowadays — chemistry. "Forever," Chris Brown Chris Brown + AutoTune + '80s techno = The Future! Mike Errico, Senior Editorf, monday, orange, february, venus, lunatic, 1 or 13, Colourmusic I liked the sunny Polyphonic Spree–inspired vocals and the dry guitars, but I really appreciated that, instead of a press sheet that would tell me about the band, the CD arrived taped into a copy of Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham. I love that book! Talking Through Tin Cans, The Morning Benders Why, oh why can't I stop toe-tapping through this one. Beatles touches in all the right places, and winks and nods every two seconds. A summertime reminder that pop music is, oh yeah ... fun.
