Pitchfork takes a big crap on Travis Morrison’s newest online-only track — a cover of Ludacris’ “What’s Your Fantasy.”
But hell, I dig it. Unlike most of the white-boy-with-acoustic-guitar-covering-rap-songs microgenre, this one’s clearly coming from a place of love.
For Travis’ previous movement in this direction, check out his version of LL Cool J’s “Around the Way Girl,” taken from this KEXP in-studio. (That one made it onto the January 2003 CD Mix of the Month.)
In other news, the new Tahiti 80 mini-album is aces. Aces, brother. Overpriced (at $14.99 for eight songs, although it does come with a bonus DVD), so you may want to grab it at eMusic.
