N: “Phenomenal” is that new Eminem song that’s in that new Jake Gyllenhaal movie where Jake Gyllenhaal is crazy ripped. In the style of “Lose Yourself” (or “Not Afraid” or “Monster”), it’s a self-deprecating, motivational ~note to self~ and I never need to hear it again. [Billboard]
Y: Feeling the Afrobeat remix of Rihanna’s “Bitch Better Have My Money” by Tiwa Savage and Reekado Banks. If I was in a rooftop spot right now instead of my living room, I’d be grooving sweatily. [Fader]
Y: Little Boots “Better in the Morning” video is a series of hashtags and BuzzFeed gifs, which music videos have morphed into nowadays. [Fader]
N: I’m only saying no to this Screaming Females “Shake It Off” cover because Charli XCX’s version is better. It’s my prerogative. [A.V. Club]
