My desk is looking pretty retarded right now. I know, I know, you can’t say “retarded” any more, it’s insensitive, but honestly, my desk looks a bit slow…like it occasionally tries to eat its own shoulder when it gets excited. In its bloated stupor, my desk is currently keeping the location of Tim Fite’s new album, “Fair Ain’t Fair” a secret from me.

It’s kinda pissing me off, but much like a child with autism, you can’t get mad at the desk; it’s not it’s fault it’s being difficult. I still want to track the album down, though, because it’s being released tomorrow, and we were one of the sites that premiered a video clip from the album (in our case, the song “Rats & Rags”). I know I’ve been blogging about it incessantly, but honestly, if I didn’t have a good impression of this piece of folk-y, hip-hop-informed pop I wouldn’t be so enthusiastic. If only I could locate my copy…

Check out the Pop Matters Blog, they posted a cool write up about Fite and “Fair Ain’t Fair.” The album’s out tomorrow, 5/6 on Anti-.

We here at the world renown Synthesis Blog are happy to announce the premeire of Tim Fite’s “Rats & Rags” video from his forthcoming album Fair Ain’t Fair, available in stores on 5.06.08 on Anti- Records. If this teaser is any indication, Fair Ain’t Fair will be Fite’s most accomplished album yet.

I gotta be honest: first time I heard Tim Fite a few years back, I was not impressed. However, judging by this clip, I am going to rock Tim Fite’s new one hard, toss it around like a ragdoll. We suggest you do the same. Plus, I’m feeling a little inspired. My roommate tends to sleep heavily when he’s been drinking….I wonder what he’ll think when he wakes up tomorrow saran-wrapped to his bed.

I am mature.
