video: adele – someone like you (2011)

29 09 2011

if there’s something we love here at weworemasks, it’s a music video comprised of a single, continuous shot. even more so when it features the lady adele. watch adele walk the somber streets of paris in a zippy-chic coat in her new video for “someone like you” from her superb album 21.

video: the knux – run [live on letterman] (2011)

29 09 2011

the knux used to only awkwardly fuse rap and rock, throwing in a grimy guitar riff into songs like “roxxanne”. on letterman last night, the duo turned full-out awesome rock machine for a performance of “run” from their newest album eraser (out now).

stream: i am the avalanche – holy fuck (2011)

29 09 2011

i always just kinda “liked” i am the avalanche. vinnie caruna was involved so i was on board. turns out, a 6 year absence is all they needed to make ‘the’ song. “holy fuck” is huge slap in the face of a return of the band. new energy, new tunes, a lot of gang vocals and plenty of good times to follow. avalanche united, the bands follow-up LP, hits stores october 11th.

t.i. is officially released (2011)

29 09 2011

king uncaged, huh? we’ve all been here before. he comes back, puts out an “i’m back” song and a few months later, the world had no mercy and his irresponsibly, driving around with lean ass gets thrown back in jail for basically another year. will tip overcome his own misjudgment and be a successful rapper full time again? or is this guy headed for the road earl simmons took? only time will tell, but for now, he’s free.

now where the hell is that song with big k.r.i.t.?

wale – lotus flower bomb [f. miguel] (2011)

29 09 2011

not only has wale successfully had this trending on twitter for 12 hours, but he’s also changed the way ladies order drinks at your favorite neighborhood club spot. both of things happened before i actually listened to the song and realized wale might actually have his first solo hit here. throwing miguel on the hook duties was an excellent touch as well. ambition hits the first of november.

video: random axe – chewbacca (2011)

28 09 2011

while guilty simpson, sean price and black milk’s project had promises to be a lot greater than it was, the album kinda fell flat in many places. that being said, “chewbacca” was definitely a sleeper ‘hit’ on the record, which is why we’re seeing a video for the cut in the first place. perfect music video.
