Cool Online Find: Black Fantastic

The group formally known as Martin Parks is back with a new calling card, Black Fantastic, and a new sound. The experimental hip-hop soul duo definitely doesn't disappoint. My standout tracks: Word, Storms, Waiting, Black Diamonds, Regrouping (You) and Strength.

Click here to have a listen to the self-titled album, and here to keep up with all things Black Fantastic!

( SIDE NOTE: I'm excited about the next three weeks. So much fun to be had. )

How do you know you’re in love?

—COMMON: Man, I know I’m in love when I think about her a lot and I’m finding ways to get to that person. Even though I gotta work, even though I gotta take care of other responsibilities, I’m like yo, when am I gonna fly out and see that person? I look forward to seeing them.

—KENDRICK LAMAR: How do you know you’re in love? When your heart feels it instead of your mind and your penis don’t. You know, it’s deeper than that… That’s when you know.

—PETE ROCK: Oh man you feel it right here, *touches heart*, right there, it’s like cupid’s shooting you in the heart, that shit’s just BOOW! Lots of people say they don’t believe in love at first sight, but I do, it’s happened to me.

—A$AP ROCKY: You know you in love cuz you don’t want nobody else but that person. You know, that’s how you know for sure. Like you could see a million other bad bitches, but you know, but it don’t even matter, you stuck.

—BIG BOI: Your heart flutters a little bit, you like to kiss on the mouth a lot, your neck get hot when you kiss on the mouth, that type of stuff. Stuff like that, yea.

—QUESTLOVE: I THINK WHEN THAT PERSON CONSUMES YOU.

I love this.
