Time for another addition to Brendan's Corner. I was speaking with a lovely young lady at a party recently who visits mattdahl.com often. She remarked on the infrequent nature of Brendan's Corner. She was damn right. My neglect doesn't stem from a lack of caring. I do appreciate Matt setting up this space for me to blog. It's just that I'm an inexperienced blogger. I'm getting my feet wet, hopefully soon I'll be a regular blogger. Because I feel that when I do blog, I blog with gusto.

Now to the point of my blog: A big month for rap music. For those of you still reading after the last sentence, thank you. I'm excited about 3 albums in particular this August. One is Lupe Fiasco, whose single, "Kick Push", Matt and I have featured several times on the show. The next is Outkast, who will hopefully once again assert their dominance over the world. They have a major-release movie coming out in conjunction with the album, which should be cool. The third is Obie Trice's sophomore effort. Obie is a talented rapper who was recently shot in the head while driving on the highway in Detroit. I liked his first album, Cheers, and look forward to hearing this one. Especially if he has a song describing what it's like to get shot in the head.
I'll try and update this blog with the release dates for anyone that cares.
