Guest Blogger: Stuff Hipsters Hate
Guest Blogger :: Wednesday, November 4th, 2009 6:00 pm
Although no one could really accuse D+T of being a hipster magazine, we do tend to tread on the indie side of the entertainment spectrum. That’s why we’ve decided to join forces with up-and-coming Tumblr site, Stuff Hipsters Hate, a blog that breaks down what a hipster is by describing what they hate. SHH will be blogging once a month on this very site, offering insight on everything from music culture to what kind of shoes will get you laughed out of the average Bedford bar. Tune in on Friday for the first of SHH’s posts. Until then, check out one of our favorite venomous pieces after the jump.

There’s no psych rock or lo-fi sound of internet fickle fandom shtick either. Yo, remember last night you said you wanted to play hell of shows in barns? This would be sick to see in a barn. A real hootenanny. MORE »

Jay-Z | The Blueprint 3 | Roc Nation
Himanshu Suri: In this short-attention span, micro-blogging Twitter world the three-step trajectory goes: Album leak, Twitter go buck, opinions made. It’s a shame that I hated this album before I heard it. Then I heard “Empire State of Mind” slowly grow into an anthem on the NY radio and began to perk up at the mention of that McDonalds uptown near City College and freaked out imagining what Bjork would sound like on it instead of Alicia.
