Yuna – Escape
Probably the most off-beat review ever, but this is the type of dope inspiration that Tyler, The Creator (the producer, not the rapper) is probably listening to. Taken from her upcoming album Nocturnal, which drops October 29th.

A friend sent me this email (a month late, it seems). I don’t know who this guy is — and the whole concept is pretty simple, to be honest — but this minimalist-slash-head nodding tune sounds better than most of the below-grade-level shit coming out of DC right now.

Bruce Jenner Was Reportedly Not Invited To Kanye & Kim’s Engagement Party
TMZ reports:
Family sources tell us … Bruce and Kanye have never had a “real conversation.” As we previously reported, Bruce was not happy when Kim hooked up with Kanye so quickly after she left Kris Humphries.
We’re told Kanye is the one who planned every detail of the surprise proposal. We do not know exactly why Bruce was not invited — whether it was because of Kanye or because of Bruce’s separation from Kris.
We do know … Bruce didn’t even know Kanye was popping the question until he got a call from Kim immediately after she got engaged. We’re told Bruce was Kim’s first call, because Kim considers him to be her father.
Kanye West Doesn’t Want A Pre-Nup With Kim Kardashian?
Rhymes With Snitch reports:
“Kanye’s in love with Kim to the point of infatuation. It’s scary because the love is so powerful, Kanye doesn’t even want to have a prenup,” the source says. “He thinks it’s tacky and he doesn’t want to offend Kim or make anything seem awkward. He loves Kim too much for that to even cross his mind. He thinks of his money and his accomplishments as hers and he wants to share them with her — no strings attached.”
