Oh what the hell? You know you've heard of him. He's been doing his thing for over thirty years and has no intention of slowing down.
A tribute to a man and his accordion.

For my second hip hop blog post of the day:
Look I've said this before, rappers don't have the best taste in white people music. Jay-Z hangs out with John Mayer. Kanye spends time with that dude from Maroon 5. I wouldn't put it past Lil Weezy to do a track with Nickelback.
Recently however, rappers are starting to hang with a better crowd.
Stereogum shows us that rappers are spending time with and indie rockers. Kid Cudi partied with Ratatat on Letterman. Ghostface Killah picked up his son's iPod and fell in love with Vampire Weekend. Damon Dash is hanging with the Black Keys. GZA is rapping with the Black Lips. I love these collaborations, because they're great.
We're at this moment in music, we couldn't have imagined when Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock were trying to create the rap-rock genre. This music reality is like old jokes coming to fruition. I swear to god, in '99 I was making jokes about electroclashmashups with gangsta rap. Today that is a reality .
Things that you don't expect now, will become realities in the future. That is why this is my list of predictions for music in 2019.
"Weird Al" Yankovic's massive influence will bring polka to the mainstream. Future rappers are going to rap over accordion basslines with beats in 3/4 time.
Unfortunately robot bands will outsell human bands. [youtube c2JChnwv2Ws]
Everyone's carbon footprint will be cut exponentially, because of karaoke-powered vehicles. Unfortunately noise pollution becomes a serious problem.
Instant DJ Toolbox, will help so many people find love, dating sites like OK Cupid will go out of business. [current 89942210]
Radio stations will play internet memes. 'The theme to keyboard cat will be the most popular song of all time.
Auto-Tune the News will become your number one source for information. If someone isn't auto-tuning, you won't trust them as 'Fair and Balanced.'
These songs will still be somewhere on the Billboard Charts. Unfortunately
Now that is all speculation, but feel free to remind me of these predictions in ten years, on the fiftieth anniversary of Monty Python.For my second hip hop blog post of the day:

While counting down the funniest sketches of the 2000s in December, we realized most of our favorites had something in common: They were song and dance numbers. So we set to work finding the best musical sketches of all time and after much infighting came up with this list. The sketch could come from anywhere: A movie, a TV show, the Web, but it had to be more music than sketch (sorry, Buh-Weet). Enjoy!

Weird Al Yankovic, who brought the world such parodies as "Pretty Fly (For a Rabbi)", "Smells Like Nirvana" and "Canadian Idiot" has been slapped with a big fat NO from James Blunt and his people when acked if it was cool for Weird Al to include his song "You're Pitiful" on his new CD.
James Blunt: never known for his sense of humour. He's also a turncoat, as he initially said yes to the idea, but backtracked when his label had issues with it. So maybe we lay the blame for this at the feet of Atlantic Records (who are responsible for bringing us James Blunt in the first place, so, yeah, they deserve heavy amounts of blame).
Anyway, click on the link for a place you can download the song for free, help the cause!Weird Al Yankovic, who brought the world such parodies as "Pretty Fly (For a... more
