Quote of the day

"One of the best days of my life."

Drake on signing up with Michael Jordan's Nike brand. The announcement came shortly after Kanye West defected from Nike to Adidas.

Meanwhile, in other news, who gives two shits about what brand of footwear a musician wears and endorses? And why the fuck are Pitchfork reporting on a story that essentially glorifies the use of music as nothing but a big stick for marketing wonks to batter people with?

While I'm on the subject of things that baffle me about music at present, why is yacht rock flavour of the month? It was appalling enough back in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Some things shouldn't be revived - they were shot dead for a very valid reason.
