Playlist 5/15/12
Hey, ya’ll. I hope everyone is surviving finals, or for my UC buds, surviving seventh week, or for my (un)employed buds, surviving life. Chris Chu, formerly of The Morning Benders and currently producing music as POP ETC, has fulfilled my every dream by making a modern day pop/hip hop record. Can you keep a secret? It’s kind of a dream of mine to be in a pop or hip hop band. I ~might~ be starting a cover band this summer, which is probably as close as I’ll get! Also, Small Black currently has a mixtape available for free download.
P.S. The picture in the background of the music player has been my background since January.
