My 366 Favourite Songs Of The Year | Jan 1st/2nd - Jean Grae & King Krule

This year I resolve to make a list comprised of 366 (because it's a leap year "blaaaad" new favourite songs; one song a day, ones I've never heard before. And because I'm some sort of a g, I've decided to share them with you. Okay. Here are days one and two.

Jan 1. Jean Grae - U&Me&EveryoneWeKnow

U & Me & Everyone We Know by Jeangreasy

I cried when I first listened to this. Everything from the smooth jazz intro (which Lady Grae produced herself), to the little French countdown, touched me differently. Judging by this first single, Cake Or Death will be epic. Kudos to M-Phazes too - the beat is dope bruvarrr. The 31st sees Jean pop up at London's Jazz Café for an intimate gig - I will most certainly be there. No diggity, no doubt mmhmmmm.

Jan 2.  Zoo Kid/ King Krule - Out Getting Ribs

I knew nothing of this little fire-headed musician until about a couple of hours ago. Such are the joys of scrolling through my Facebook homepage - I find all sorts of gems. His sound is almost mellow-dub and the guitar twangs in this song are so hard to miss; they're adorable. I suppose the thing that got me most about this Out Getting Ribs (title inspired by that little note by Jean-Michel Basquiat) was that it remind me of all that 80's New Wave stuff that I love listening to... Nostalgia indeed. And he looks like David Bowie for goodness sake. That's like, so epic dude. Download his latest EP here.
