2 Live Crew's Uncle Luke Running for Miami Mayor
"I think we can stimulate the economy with a tax on strippers."
Tweet
In his time on this planet, the rapper, party promoter, and former 2 Live Crew member Luther Campbell (otherwise known as Uncle Luke and Luke Skyywalker) has run record labels, established Southern rap as a commercial force, and taken on the Supreme Court. He's also one of the raunchiest rappers in the history of the genre. And now he's got a new goal on the horizon: He wants to be the next mayor of Miami-Dade County.
In an interview with the Miami New Times (where he also writes a column), Campbell talks about why he wants to be mayor: "Why is our government only serving one set of people? That's what is pushing me to run." He also announced some of his policies, including gated communities in inner-city neighborhoods, slashing the county budget, and raising taxes. He even proposes a tax on strippers, which doesn't sound like the Luke I know. ("Even though all my stripper friends are gonna be mad at me, I think we can stimulate the economy with a tax on strippers. They make all this money and don't pay taxes.") He also suggests that he can win Latino votes because he discovered Pitbull.

They're finally putting that "Jersey Shore" money to good use

As Rolling Stone points out, Reuters reports that the classic MTV cartoon "Beavis and Butt-Head" will return to the air later this year with new episodes. Rolling Stone speculates that series creator Mike Judge will once again voice both characters, but MTV hasn't revealed any further details about the new version of the show. If they come back as computer-generated polygons, somebody's getting slapped. Still, anyone who was a kid in the 90s will tell you that this is great news.

Right around the time the new year flipped over, M.I.A. released the Vicki Leekx mixtape, a continuous half hour of paranoid party anthems. And on her Twitter today, M.I.A. has posted some visual companions for the mixtape.
When posting that photo above, M.I.A. wrote in typical M.I.A. style, "vicki leekx home made wardrobe ! ill explain later! u likeeeee isss niccce , its cheeep u buuuy !!! i got coooloooouuurrrrr many many ..." I'd like to imagine that she's dressing as the character of Vicki Leekx, the robotic host that occasionally shows up during the mixtape.
M.I.A. also posted a panel of Vicki Leekx logos and a video for the first 10 minutes of the mix, which you can watch below. The video combines M.I.A.'s recent kaleidoscopic internet-overload video style with genuinely unnerving WikiLeaks-style footage of third-world cityscapes and shit blowing up.

Washington City Paper reports that Brendan Majewski, former bassist for the Washington, DC band outfit Quix*o*tic, committed suicide on January 20 in New York City. He was 37 years old. (Via the Daily Swarm.)
Majewski's musical career began in the late 1990s as a member of the Baltimore band Murder. While in that band, he met Mira Billotte (now of White Magic) at the Maryland Institute College of Art and formed Quix*o*tic in 1998 with Mira and her sister Christina (formerly of Bratmobile, Autoclave and Slant 6). The band combined elements of doo-wop and early R&B with spartan post-punk affectations, as demonstrated on their cover of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' 1961 single "What's So Good About Goodbye", which you can hear below.
The band self-released a single, "Heliotrope", as well as a full-length produced by Fugazi's Guy Picciotto, Night for Day, before Majewski left the band in 2001. (They later recruited Orthrelm's Mick Barr and signed to Kill Rock Stars.) Majewski later went on to form the metal-leaning NYC outfit Orphan. Check out audio and video of some of Majewski's work with Quix*o*tic and Orphan below.

The vet New Orleans added that he was proud to see the viral "free Weezy" movement take off and check out the careers of Young Money power players Drake and Nicki Minaj to the hip-hop stratosphere shooting.
"The" Free Weezy "campaign [has] been real natural," he explained. "The way Nicki and Drake is able to grow, but at the same time they ensure that even if their stars brighter get — even [in concert] they said: "when I say this, you say," Free Weezy.

He said: "--what the f is up?"I said, "I am ' Chillin', man.Finally made it to the largest city in the whole muthaf---' world."... He said: "I'm in New York with the family", but he said: "you think they still love Lil Wayne there in La? 'I said, "Because I'll see you in a few days, instead of telling you the obvious answer to that question, I'mma just show how much they love you.""

"La, I'm going to keep this camera on, "he told the crowd."I know for a fact that Lil Wayne can't wait to come back to La and the conclusion of this place. so this next song is in honor of the fact that he will be right at home."
