Out There
• Kanye's new video for "Champion" casts him as an Olympic athlete, instantly dating the video, as no one is going to care about the Olympics anymore in two weeks. Gabe, over at Videogum, takes a look into the process from whence this concept came. (Also, the sample Kanye uses in the song is "Kid Charlemagne" by your favorite band and mine, Steely Dan!)
• The Jay-Z vs. Noel Gallagher feud is kind of awesome. Hear Jay's dis track here.
• The Walkmen's new album drops next week! Hear a preview at Spin. Also check out their Daytrotter session from last week.
