Where has all the fun in music gone? There are thousands of bands out there, some that you can’t really distinct from another. There are tons of good bands out there, but I feel like a lot of the music is lacking one key ingredient that I know I love to hear in music: Fun. These days, everyone’s so focused on finding the best new buzz band that we seem to forget to have fun listening to music.
Vampire Weekend’s very own Ezra Koenig had the right idea way before he became world famous with Vampire Weekend. While at Columbia University he started L’Homme run as a way for him and his friend Andrew Kalaidjian to have some fun and create some white boy rap (VW’s drummer Chris Tomson helped drop some beats too). The songs are an honest look at a bunch of friends having fun creating something catchy and irresistible. The quality is there as well, the L’Homme Run songs will be stuck in your head for days at a time.
I’ve gotten at least one hundred emails to this day asking me for L’Homme Run mp3′s. The people are dying for it, and Ezra even told a fan to search for them on blogs. I can help you out guys. Here are the 4 mp3′s that L’Homme Run created back in the day, in full glory.
[mp3] : L’Homme Run – Bitches
[mp3] : L’Homme Run – Pizza Party
[mp3] : L’Homme Run – Interracial Dating
[mp3] : L’Homme Run – Giving Up Da Gun
