Hey peeps,
Let me preface this by saying TWITTER has officially taken my attention away from blogging. It's very similar, but i can do it quickly & easily from my Blackberry. Plus, everyone seems to be addicted to it these days, myself included, so it's been a good tool to get my thoughts out. HOWEVER.....the blog lives on and I will continue to stop in & spil my guts more thoroughly than can be done in a mere 140 characters.
If u want to know how I'm doing on a daily...umm...hourly basis lol peep me at:

Now then, on to the task at hand. Showing u what's HAWT months b4 it happens!
This one i must admit I'm hitting u up a lil late on, but that's b/c I haven't been blogging. Nevertheless, I'm sure most of you haven't heard of this band yet anyway SO! Allow me to introduce my latest musical obsession....
CHESTER FRENCH!
Long story short, D.A. Wallach & Max Drummey, collectively known as Chester French, are 2 Harvard graduates who make unique rock / pop music. So unique that Jermaine Dupri & Kanye West both tried to get at them...but they eventually signed with Pharrell Williams & Chad Hugo's label STAR TRAK. They're album LOVE THE FUTURE actually dropped yesterday, but they've had tracks bubbling all over the internet for months. They even put out a mixtape w/ the homie Clinton Sparks 2 weeks ago to promote the album with guest appearances by Pharrell, Diddy, Kardinal Offishall, Lady Gaga, Wale, Clipse, Bun B and the list goes on.
Just finished listening to the album front to back, and here's my synopsis (as per my Twitter tweets lol).
Chester French - Love The Future...quite possibly the most unique album I've heard since The Love Below. So musical, so strange, SO DOPE! N.E.R.D. influence is clear, but still a style all their own. If The Beatles were a new band in 2009, they might sound something like this!
But enough rambling / gushing. Pharrell says it's GENIUS...I say it's HAWT SAUCE...but as always, I encourage you to Judge for yourself.
