Testament to how much this is getting played out these days:
Guy I'm sitting next to at work briefly took his headphones off to say something but got all confused as he could hear the music he was listening to on his laptop on the office sound system.
I like it. But I used to like the xx before they became uber ubiquitous.

Is this some sort of crappy hipster act that no one will remember in a year but everyone is raving about how vital and fresh it is at the moment?

It seems like a crossover experiment to get this group bundled in with the "hipster scenester" bands. I hear them on the hipster satellite radio station, and the djs are going apeshit over them.
It's not my thing.- Oh, so I was correct then. I'm a metal head and a jazz fan. I don;t get any of this shit.TheBlueOne

they just took some really good new music (as of last couple years) and put some "poetry" on top in a semi whiney voice...
I liked one track, not into the rest...
"I'm better than your next man
And if you're swingin'
like you're dumber than the next man
Cause I don't play
unless it's keys
then I play all day
You like em keys
We gon' play all day
Wet dreams
Fry your brain all day"...they're so romantic..
"Poppin again
I tried to quit again
I'm always tight with something I begin
That's why my niggas got me till the end
Supply what I take
I take what I spend baby
I ain't fine to nobody but me
And you, and me
But you especially"

Fuck, I think it's great. It's all from their free "mixtape" so we should expect something with more mass appeal later, but hard to say if it'll be for better or worse.

Where's the Rhythm and where's the Blues? All I hear is delay and autotune. The track above is decent, though. Shit's all over Drakes droopy eyed face.
