Steve Lacy Debuts 'Oh Yeah?' Single "Nice Shoes"
Steve Lacyofficially announced his new albumOh Yeah?along with the release of its debut single 'Nice Shoes.'
The three-minute track kicks off with a thumping beat and sharp, whistling synths. Lacy enters with nonchalant vocals before offering his more melodic take in the chorus. 'Make it stop,' he repeats like a chant, followed by a quick portion of R&B/neo-soul before returning to the cut's electronica base.
'Nice Shoes' is set to join Oh Yeah?, Lacy's first album in three years. 'When I first started making shit or producing stuff with [previous group] the Internet, I would always make the beat, make a hook, and just give it away,' he toldRolling Stone. 'That was my process for a while, so words were always just kind of secondary. I'm like, 'If my beat hard, this bass line hard, the chords hard, what else do we need?' But now I'm like, 'OK, I want to say shit how I would say shit.''

Mr. X-Toon, animator who turned Disney into gay fantasy, has died
Mr. X-Toon (NSFW artwork at that link), whose gay Disney-inspired porn edits and animations often went viral online, has passed away, according to an online report. Mr. X-Toon's popular animations would depict male Disney characters in romantic pairings like Tarzan and Milo from Atlantis, Kristoff from Frozen and Flynn from Tangled, Hercules and Aladdin, and more. The videos were distinct for their high-quality animation and voice acting — as well as large penises with graphic gay sex. Because of his ability to make high-quality gay porn animations featuring popular characters from Disney and other animated films, Mr. X-Toon's videos have gone viral and become a part of internet lore and culture. Now, a post shared by a person claiming to be "a close friend of David," the real name of the animator, says that he died July 25. The cause of death was not disclosed. "I'm Daniel, a close friend of David, widely known as 'mrxtoon' on the internet. He was an extraordinary friend, a brilliant artist, a family man, and a source of joy in our lives," the statement reads. "His artistry was unparalleled, and his dedication to his fans to give more was truly inspiring. He loved his fan, family, and creating art above all else." "Though words can't capture this feeling, I'm heartbroken to share that David passed away on July 25, at 7:30 pm alone in his residency," it continues. "My heart still grieves as I inform his fans and friends of this devastating news. I seek closure in this difficult time. I hope David finds peace in eternity. You'll be deeply missed, bud." Tributes to the animator have poured in online.
