Not to be kanye-centric this week, but I was sent this track from a DJ here in DC- DJ Statt- who I met a couple years back while he was spinning a my Turkish theme song.
The track that DJ Statt- or David- sent is a mix of Power by Kanye.
it.is.unreal.
The track that David was spinning the night I first heard him was Simarik (which translates to/is referencing a spoiled girl- hence, my theme song) - by Tarkan.
And as long we are plugging the superstars of my motherland- listen to this jam.
The title is "Hup"- literally the sound of sucking air in- or, in the case of his song- a person into yourself. My bffer, craigels, loves this song.
you will be whistling to this and to yourself the rest of the day.
thought this would be a representative photo of what i picture the perfect 'home' to feel like- warm, cozy, great food, great drinks, and a little something special in the background...
When I heard this the first time on the VMAs, I was meh about it.
Not sure if it was the layers of gold chains he was wearing, or the bright red contrasting on the white stage, but Kanye stole my heart with this song.
