Way down in the Hole by Tom Waits (The Wire theme song). Great theme song for one of the best shows in Television. Gotta love Mr Waits.

Before Basquiat's death his friend took a bunch of footage that hasn't been seen since 2011, anyways I decided to share with my tumblr audience and other Basquiat fans alike. The documentary is pretty awesome, especially if you have a disposition toward 80's NY/Andy Warhol etc.

Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? Up on a pedestal or down on your knees, it’s all a male fantasy: that you’re strong enough to take what they dish out, or else too weak to do anything about it. Even pretending you aren’t catering to male fantasies is a male fantasy: pretending you’re unseen, pretending you have a life of your own, that you can wash your feet and comb your hair unconscious of the ever-present watcher peering through the keyhole, peering through the keyhole in your own head, if nowhere else. You are a woman with a man inside watching a woman. You are your own voyeur.

Heatbreaker by Alabama Shakes

Reminds me of this guy, webbed toe pale skin, who told me he loved me and fucked some red head in his bed, so they next time I was in his bed I  swallowed a chunk of artificial red hairs.
