Warpaint is having a fabulous ’10 so far, and with there upcoming full length, it looks like this will be a breakout year for our favorite outfit from the West Coast. The ladies recently did a brilliant cover of David Bowie’s “Ashes To Ashes.”

Which will be on a Bowie tribute album “We Were So Turned On” in conjunction with War Child. It was released as a digital single and all profits generated from the single will go to War Child.

Cee-Lo| Fuck You [Audio]

// August 23rd, 2010 // No Comments » // Listening Section

When we look back at the year of 2010 there will be two songs that have hands down been the most played tunes here at the cafe, Cee-Lo’s latest single ‘Fuck You’ will be one of them. Yes we know this song has been all over the internets since it’s release last week but we’re just getting around to posting it. Can’t blame Mr. Green for creating such a brilliant track, although his timing was off, had this been last year there’s a certain someone who may have gotten the Say Anything treatment boom box style at high volume. Post break-up tune of the decade if you ask us. Ladykiller will see daylight soon.

Cee-Lo- Fuck You
