I am amused to find Keke Palmer redirects to Marit Larsen — brand intact!

I am officially calling “Super Brooklyn” as my Golden Beat.

Really dug the David Banner. He sounds so in his element, and that sound is going to have a timeless appeal. At the other end of the spectrum, the Lupe Fiasco track sounds real dated and forced.

I actually voted Lupe, but I might be dated too. 😉

I mean, that’s applicable to many if not most of us here to be fair.
And you and I have aligned enough ears on other things (TIL that we both enjoy some Destroyer) that I can let this one slide. 😁

Cocoa Brovaz must not be only good at music, but also at law that Nintendo didn’t get this song removed from YouTube yet.

Got a big laugh from Coca Brovaz going all out and including the sound effects as well as the melody line.

I own 3 of these on CD! So, by default but also because it’s my first clear GB of the tournament, had to vote for “Super Brooklyn”.
