The duo's single "Black Beatles" becomes the highest-charting Hot 100 title to name-check The Beatles, by an act other than the Fab Four themselves, as it rises 41-38,

You will know "Black Beatles" has peaked when you start seeing outraged FB posts from Baby Boomers.

it actually hasn't been that long at all?
― J0rdan S., Monday, 7 November 2016 18:31 (nine years ago)
it hit the top 40 like two weeks after they released the video
― J0rdan S., Monday, 7 November 2016 18:32 (nine years ago)
the song came out in the summer & now its november, feels like a while to me
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Monday, 7 November 2016 18:40 (nine years ago)
it has steadily risen up the charts over the period of a couple months like pretty much any hit but you should ask mike will why he didn't release it as a single until late september
― J0rdan S., Monday, 7 November 2016 18:42 (nine years ago)
amazed but so thrilled it's doing so well
would love for it to make the full pop crossover but not holding my breath
― dyl, Monday, 7 November 2016 18:43 (nine years ago)
It sold almost twice as much digitally as any other song did today so I'd say a top 10 placement is pretty much inevitable at this point. http://www.digitalsalesdata.com/diydsd.php?Region=143441

wondering whether to see these guys when they come to play in Jan. Worried I might be the oldest person there by at least 20 years though... Does it matter?
― Lennon, Elvis, Hendrix etc (dog latin), Monday, 14 November 2016 09:24 (nine years ago)
I saw them last year and they were amazing. But yes you probably will be the oldest person there.

so is "Swang" sampling something or just really reminiscent of a slow idm track?! it drives me nuts and I think it just sounds like something
― mh, Wednesday, 10 May 2017 02:07 (nine years ago)
I'm almost certain "By Chance" samples "Gammi" by Disjecta for the beat.
― attention vampire (MatthewK), Wednesday, 10 May 2017 02:28 (nine years ago)
I am all for doing some research as a group, here. We can crack this producers into 90s idm sampling or jacking beats connection
― mh, Wednesday, 10 May 2017 02:39 (nine years ago)
I also suspect part of Kendrick's "HUMBLE." beat is lifted from the end of Autechre's "Augmatic Disport". Which would please them massively since they are hip-hop to the core.
― attention vampire (MatthewK), Wednesday, 10 May 2017 03:57 (nine years ago)
'Swang' does sound a bit like Boards of Canada or Plaid or something. I wonder what that bubbly synth sounds like backwards?
