Words Hurt

Chekhov's Gun

This is my best friend Tim.

Tim is a rapper.

If you don't understand because I didn't give him a rap nomdeplume, dude's rap name is Alaska. He's been one of my favorite rappers since before I met him, and after I met him I didn't even know he was the rapper I was already a huge fan of. It's kismet we're besties, not just because I can brag that he's what this song entails, but because he's SUPES HANDSOME.

All cockrubbing aside, peep the new single from power pop duo Words Hurt, featuring rappering by Alaska and production by Lang Vo. Also, the B Side has some guesties in Marilyn Carino (LOVE HER, LOVE HER SHOW!) and Hemlock Ernst aka Sam Herring from Future Islands. 

This is the lead single off the album Fuck That Pretty Boy Shit which drops on 4/26/16. And if you haven't pressed play yet, appreciate the fact that this dude just murdered a beat made out of sticks and stones and piano strikes made by a Philipino man's testicles. It's THAT droopy floopy hard conch bro. The lyrics that mention that he ran a 5K in a half hour is depressing because he's talking about it like it's a bad fucking time, I still have yet to crack 30 minutes and I'm averaging about 33 minutes, and running fucking sucks. We should rap about why running sucks all of the butts. FUCK RUNNING. 

But hell yeah self improvement bros!

SHARE THIS WITH EVERYONE WHO MATTERS IN YOUR LIFE, AND THEN ONCE AGAIN FOR ALL THE ASSHOLES IN YOUR LIFE. 

Good fucking shit Tim and Lang.
