ASAP Rocky
UPDATE: Because Spinner is RIP this full story can now be found here.
Harlem rapper ASAP Rocky has a song called “Bass” whose chorus is just “Bass!… Bass!… Bass!… Bass!”
It’s fucking great.
ASAP’s also about 30 per cent more enlightened than the average rapper because, well, he doesn’t give a fuck if you’re gay.
The proof, and elaboration, on this stance can be read over at Spinner by clicking here.

Weird Niagara

Hoping to channel her expertise in the bizarre, AOL Travel asked her to compose a list of the kitschiest things in Niagara. You can read about them all by clicking here.

Josey Vogels
What music do Canadians listening to when they’re doin’ it? Not, apparently, 3 Inches Of Blood.
That’s what Sarah found out when she spoke to sexpert Josey Vogels about a recent SiriusXM study on the sexy-times listening habits of Canadians.
To the best Vogels could figure, Canadians listen to everything when they’re porkin’. Except Raffi. No Raffi.
