I haven't done a straight up presidents entry in quite a while. And I'll definitely trot one out one of these days. For now, though...

Collide You A Drank has the perfect vibe for this time of Fall. I've been in a bit of a mood, and the slow build really is doing wonders for me.

Speaking of, I contend that T-Pain is the artist of the year, appearing on "Buy U A Drank," "I'm A Flirt (remix)," "Kiss Kiss," and "Good Life." He's like the universal condiment - if your song is missing something, throw in T-Pain and you've got one of the best songs of the year. Hip Hop soon will have five elements - MCing, graffiti, DJing, breakdancing, and T-Pain.

Now for Lupe Fiasco news...

I submit that for "The Cool," "Dumb it Down" is the new "Kick Push"





And "Superstar" is the new "Daydreamin'"





So I'll feel more comfortable about "The Cool" if he puts out another "I Gotcha"



I don't give Food & Liquor enough credit.
