Money's too tight to mention



A classic 80's song from this guy. I remember him from some tacky blue eyed soul videos I saw when I was a kid. Who knew he had this kind of keep-your-chin up, everyday struggle stuff in his back pocket?



"Ooh money, money, money - we're talking bout money, money". I've just checked my Visa bills and I noticed I've spent nearly exactly the same amount on records that I've gotten as a salary from a magazine I journalize for. That's some real bad economics, you can't eat records.

Same shit every last week of the month

Dammit, I always find myself in the same situation at the end of the month: a few days to hustle some big money to cover my bills. Yeah, this is the life when you have no real job but shitloads of low paid freelance oddjobs, combined with studying and organizing this collective dj effort.

Here's a well known rare rap classic I listen to when I feel like today. From the Iceland CD which goes around 60 bucks nowadays. That's one of the things I can't hope to afford.
