It’s retarded that you need to be a student at NYU to go to this, but if you are one, then don’t miss it. Flying Lotus and Gang Gang Dance together. Light Asylum too. College kids have all the fun. (We’re not crazy about the casio clash soundtrack to the video above, but the visuals are strangely engrossing.) [TURNS OUT FLYLO WILL DO A SECOND FREE PERFORMANCE AT LPR AFTER THE NYU JOINT STARTING AT 11PM.]

A$AP Rocky is on some Harlem next ish, bringing purple flows to Uptown sounds. His syrupy flow mixed with cloudy beats are definitely worth checking. The above track “Peso”, the first single off the upcoming LP LiveLoveA$AP, is produced by ASAP Ty and is free for download. He also often works with Jersey’s Clam Casinos on tracks like “Wassup”, which is below. Dude is performing at the first Shortcuts party tomorrow along with Venus X, who’s shows up in the “Peso” video. Also on stage will be $hayne, SpaceghostPurp, and Das Racist, who is throwing the party along with True Panther and Despot.
