Catchin Me a Buzz

It's been a while, yes. But I doubt anybody gives a damn. So I won't waste my time apologizing.

Right now I'm flying on the wings of some Strawberry Cough. If you don't know what that is ask your local weed dealer. I'm also savoring the fifty-some milligrams of pain killers draining down the back of my throat. And, I'm loving this cigarette.

How 'bout some music to compliment the buzz?

Let's start with some Bob Dylan



I figured we'd start with a sort of an anthem. This song is best described by the repetitive chorus, "Everybody must get stoned." Sounds good to me.

That's right. We're switching genres. And I'll probably do it again. Its Drake and Weezy. The pair always make magic, and this track doesn't disappoint. The music and the lyrics have an energy that I can't describe, but it feels good.

"I think better when I'm not sober." - Drake

Drake - Ignant Shit ft. Lil' Wayne (So Far Gone)



Johnny's the man. No one can deny that. This song brings us to a different, but just as important theme: women. Not only does Johnny tear it up on the harmonica, but he sings about traveling to the girl he loves. And us gentlemen know that nothing compliments a nice buzz like a fine woman.

Lastly, we have a virtually unknown rapper. I accidentally stumbled upon Wonder Boy when I was searching for local rappers here in New York City. His stuff is different.

Especially his remix of Wayne's "A Milli". We've heard nearly every rapper do their remix of the song, but Wonder Boy is the first I've found to take it from a different angle. Instead of talking about millions of dollars being "A Milli", Wonder Boy talks about "A Milli" in regards to milligrams. Yep, drugs. I know I've got more drugs than money. I feel you.
