The Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - 50 Best Road Trip Songs&|&The Jetpacker - StumbleUpon No road trip is complete without a playlist of songs that capture the spirit of traveling on the open road. So we’ve compiled a list of the 50 best road trip songs . In order to make this be-all end-all totally definitive list that all other lists look up to, the songs had to meet the following criteria: a.) encompass the excitement and freedom of road tripping b.) make the time pass faster c.) keep you awake without the assistance of questionably legal pills named “No Doze” d.) contain lyrics so singable that you’ll legitimately consider trying out for the next “American Idol” e.) keep you distracted long enough to make you forget you need to pee (which subsequently means stopping at a heinous rest stop where the bathroom stalls are tagged with death threats and truckers hit on you) f.) drown out the sound of your annoying friend who complains about a developing deep vein thrombosis from being crammed in the backseat (tough it up!) 50.

Headphones buying guide Editor's note: We've published an updated version of this article, Buying Guide: Find the Best Headphones (2012). If you're looking to improve the audio coming from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod, new headphones will do wonders. Similarly, a good set of headphones is a must-have for those times you want to listen to your Mac privately. However, the variety of styles and options is wider than ever—and the opportunities for in-person testing fewer. To help you find the perfect set of headphones, here’s the 2011 edition of our yearly buying guide: what to look (and listen) for, descriptions of the different types, and specific recommendations. Whichever model you choose, don't forget to protect your hearing. What to look for when shopping Unlike with speakers, headphones don't differ much on features—you plug them in, put the earpieces on (or in) your ears, and listen. Instead of reading specs, use your ears. Fit/comfort: Unlike most consumer-electronics devices, you actually wear headphones.
5 Artists You Should Know In 2011 The hits just keep on coming — so much excellent music rolls out each week that it can be hard just to keep up. In 2011, Bon Iver, Wilco, Raphael Saadiq, The Decemberists, Gillian Welch, Tinariwen, Elbow, Tom Waits and Fleet Foxes all met high expectations. Shabazz Palaces, James Blake and Wild Flag dropped highly anticipated debuts that lived up to the advance buzz. Charles Bradley came out of nowhere, stripping his heart and soul bare on his debut album (No Time for Dreaming) at age 61. And legendary funk guitarist Dennis Coffey descended from cloud nine and a 20-year hiatus to lay down some wicked new original tracks. In 2011, even with more outlets than ever for discovering and sharing new music, it's nearly impossible for even the most dedicated music lover to keep up.

Top 30 Hip-Hop / Rap Albums Of 2008 | Yung Drew's Hip Hop Music 30. The Knux – Remind Me In 3 Days… I didn’t hear about the hip-hop group The Knux until 2008, but I was glad someone reminded me to check out their album entitled “Remind Me In 3 Days…”. I was instantly overtaken with a new sound, something that I hadn’t heard before. Just because you make creative music, doesn’t necessarily mean that it is good music – a concept that many people fail to recognize in the music industry nowadays. The duo called “The Knux” were able to make an album that featured creative sounds, creative concepts, and still make it a (more than) noteworthy piece of music to check out in 2008. PURCHASE: The Knux – Remind Me in 3 Days 29. Nine years since the duo (Erick Sermon and Parrish Smith) dropped “Out Of Business” they made a return to the world of hip-hop with the release of “We Mean Business.” The album is really a must-listen for any fan of EPMD and definitely worth checking out if you appreciate good hip-hop music. PURCHASE: EPMD – We Mean Business 28. 27. 26.
