Strange Famous Records & Epic Beard Men Present - B. Dolan's UNJUSTIFIED: MAN OF THE PECKERWOODS (Justin Timberlake Mash-up)


Justin Timberlake released his long-awaited fifth studio album, Man of The Woods today, which has taken him "back to his Nashville roots," as well as his pre-Timbaland production partners, The Neptunes. This upcoming Sunday, Timberlake will also make his return to Super Bowl LII, playing his first half-time show since 2004's Super Bowl XXXVIII half-time show controversy, widely regarded as "Nipplegate." "When it was announced JT would return to the Super Bowl, after spectacularly failing to stand by [Janet] Jackson at the height of his career, it started bugging me more," one half of Epic Beard Men, B. Dolan wrote on Soundcloud early Friday morning. "I started out to make a single one of these mash-ups out of curiosity. Then, I kept going because I'm petty and a music nerd and it was stunningly easy," @BDolanSFR continued. B. Dolan is of course, referring to his "dope, highly unofficial 30-minute satirical mix" entitled UNJUSTIFIED: MAN OF THE PECKERWOODS presented by Strange Famous Records & Epic Beard Men. Just this past holiday season, B. Dolan and his Epic Beard Men partner-in-rhyme, Sage Francis released their second collaborative single as a group, "WAR ON CHRISTMAS."


B. Dolan has spent the last month meticulously "removing Justin Timberlake from each of his hits and replacing him with MJ & Pharrell affiliates." UNJUSTIFIED: MAN OF THE PECKERWOODS features "appearances" from A Son Unique AKA Ol' Dirty Bastard, The Clipse, JAY-Z, Janet Jackson, Jesse Williams, BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe, and Strange Famous signee and actor Scroobius Pip. UNJUSTIFIED: MAN OF THE PECKERWOODS showcases thrilling re-visions of Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack," "Señorita," "Rock Your Body," "Take Back The Night," "What Goes Around... Comes Around," "Cry Me a River," "What You Got (Oh No)" JAY-Z's "Holy Grail," and likely, a few others, as well as a few notorious "Nipplegate" era sound bites. For the time being, B. Dolan's UNJUSTIFIED: MAN OF THE PECKERWOODS is now available for FREE download from Strange Famous Records' Soundcloud page and since Spotify recently changed their rules for remixes, might soon become available on the streaming platform, as well. Epic Beard Men will be doing some sort of #UNJUSTIFIED Half-time Livestream this upcoming Super Bowl Sunday and will soon announce their proper debut, Season 1 EP for a 2018 release. Epic Beard Men have announced a string of East Coast dates through March and plan to tour relentlessly through 2018.


"In 2001, Michael Jackson was offered a bundle of songs from The Neptunes. MJ's management rejected them and they found their way to Justin Timberlake—creating the breakthrough album, Justified (2002.) That's always bugged me. When it was announced JT would return to the Super Bowl, after spectacularly failing to stand by another Jackson, at the height of his career, it started bugging me more. I started out to make a single one of these mash-ups out of curiosity. Then, I kept going because I'm petty and a music nerd and it was stunningly easy. In the end, though, I figured out what had been bothering me all along about Justin: it was his presence. And his whole personhood and self. Once those things were out of the way, I really liked a lot of his music. And so, we offer this as a free download for as long as we can keep it on The Internet. Spread it far and wide. It's yours! For Janet. For Pharrell & The Clipse. For Michael. For Britney, Goddamit. Shouts out to my musical partner Adam Schneider for help with glitches and keys. Man's a wizard.

PS: THE EPIC BEARD MEN are about to release their debut and have announced a string of tour dates across The East Coast. It will NOT feature this music. We will be doing a high-powered, party-rockin' Rap set full of new and old material. Hit EPICBEARDMEN.COM for dates and details!"

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

3 Feet High & Rising: Band of Bearded Brothers Cellar Door Moon Crow Unleash Rollicking Single "Whistler" from Upcoming Blues Rock EP (Bandcamp, self-released)

Whistler by Cellar Door Moon Crow British Rock 2-piece band Cellar Door Moon Crow mysteriously found and Followed The Witzard (@SharpCheddar856) on Twitter a few months ago. Their Facebook About section simply lists a brief, yet fitting, mission statement: "Band ~ Beards ~ Brothers Goodwin brothers Phil & Tommy . Sheffield, UK " and their accompanying Biography section contains a similar refrain: "Band ^ Beards ^ Brothers," as well as their Bandcamp page. There really isn't much else to be known about twin brothers Phil & Tom Goodwin , aside from the fact that they make infectious, down and dirty Rock "N" Roll —all entirely written, recorded, produced, and mixed in-house by Cellar Door Moon Crow (CDMC) themselves. CDMC 's Bandcamp page often tags their musical output as " British Rock , Rock, Blues Rock , two-piece band, Sheffield " and I would best liken their sound to a stylistic mix between The Black Keys , Thir

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
