What I'm listening to today: "Soul Suckin' Jerk" (reject version), Beck
Beck's formula is so well-defined it's easy to forget he stumbled into making commercial pop music sort of by accident. So I really love his very early label work, before that formula solidified and the folk and rap components got separated. Like, the "Loser" EP's got some deliriously weird stuff, like this track where he apocalyptically fantasizes about quitting his job at Kentucky Fried Chicken.
