Cazwell • Hot Homo Video (NSFW)

Cazwell has joined forces with gay bear rapper Big Dipper to release "Hot Homo", their own particularly gay take on Bobby Shmurda’s “Hot N*gga”. I have long been a fan of Cazwell, who manages to combine music, rap, humor, and intelligence in his music. And he is also pretty damn cute. He shares the microphone with Big Dipper, who I was not familiar with until now. But I bet I will remedy that quickly. The song, "Hot Homo", is a parody of Shmurda's song, with a decidedly gay edge.

The music video, which is decidedly Not Safe for Work, was directed by Gabe Gonzalez, and edited by David Munoz. Tobin Del Cuore operated the camera, and the crew was made up by Adam Moore, Clark Parkan, and Bob. And it wouldn't be a Cazwell video without lots of handsome men, the less clothes the better. In this video, you can find Levi Michaels, Tayte Hanson, Dimitri Genco, 3X’S, Justin, Brett Edwards Stout, Mikel Mitchell, David Munoz, Marco Ovando, Skylar Loraquette, Sergio Ramos, Andrew Price, Alonso Garcia, Geronimo Frias, Alex Maravilla, Tayda Lebon, Avi Vichner, and Elvis. I hope you enjoy "Hot Homo", as performed by Cazwell and Big Dipper.

K Anderson • F**k Around

Since the first time I heard the opening bars of "This Changes Everything", I have been at the mercy of British singer/songwriter K. Anderson. Smart, sexy, fun, and intriguing are just a few of the words I could use to describe his music, but I could also throw in ever-changing. What started out as Rocky Blues on "This Changes Everything", was followed by the Folky charm of "Bruise Like A Peach", and the quirky confessional of "14-Year-Old Me". Well, you get the idea. But now, he had a new music video out, and it is something unlike the others, but keeps my attention nonetheless.

In his latest single, K. offers a view of the freedoms of youth, when love and sex were offered freely and generously. Stylistically, the song is part Arlo Guthrie, and part Macklemore. Somehow, Anderson has combined the tradition of Folk storytelling with the Hip-Hop vibe more familiar to the current generation of music lovers to make a yummy treat with "Fuck Around". Yes, the theme might be more adult in message, and perhaps not safe for viewing/hearing in the office or around children, but I know it works damn well for me. In retrospective, when you are young, the trajectory of love and sex were not always running in parallel, even if, at times, they intersected. Sometimes, we are just left with memories, photographs, and some lube. This is K. Anderson with "Fuck Around".

In the old days, I would say this single included a B-side, although now it is seen as another track on the EP. In this case, that honor goes to "Sunburnt Bodies", a delicious song that combines Pop with the music of spaghetti Western movies, sounding both mysterious and desolate. There is something quite sexy about the song, be it the reflective nature of the lyrics, or the sexy delivery of them. Chalk it up for another win for Anderson and for fans of music, who will need to own both tracks. You can purchase the 'Fuck Around' EP from Amazon, and Bandcamp. To learn more about K. Anderson, visit his official website. You can also 'follow' him on Twitter and 'like' him on Facebook.

Free DL - Gene Dante & the Future Starlets

Gene Dante and the Future Starlets are set to release their second single from The Romantic Lead, C*Star. You might remember them from earlier posts, here, and here. You can download a free MP3 to celebrate. Find out more at the end of the post.





The Boston-based band has been playing some shows and impressing the critics. Ryanssmashinglife.com says "Once you see them perform live, it's impossible not to fall for their razor-sharp, high energy live performances. (So addictively catchy, and unbelievably well put together...!)" Waved Rumor liked them, saying "It’s theater, it’s rock. It’s Killers and Freddie Mercury in Bed Together." The Boston Herald was also impressed, stating "There’s a thrill in his drama-lounge delivery, sturdy melodies and on-the-money band, capable of handling anything from punk to power pop."



C*Star is a bawdy, in-your-face sexuality that starts with the first note and never quits. His style reminds me of Bowie during the Thin White Duke era, the Let's Dance CD in particular. There is never a frantic moment, there is an ease to the delivery, an inherent cool. Be warned, this video is not safe for work, but perfect for fun away from your desk.
