No word yet on when a new album will be coming.
• Good news for my favorite television couple, Jim & Pam.
• Also in television news, the Emmy nominations were announced this morning. Finally, credit for the amazing writing and acting that is Parks & Recreation. We’re also Team Coco here, so the fact that Jay Leno was snubbed again has the little demon on our shoulder giggling.
• With Brothers still in heavy rotation, Black Keys announced they’ve already finished a follow-up record, & it’s going to be released later this year.

• Toro Y Moi is set to release Freaking Out EP on 9/13. The album does not consist of remains from his last release Underneath the Pine but new material that he recorded on the road. Download "Saturday Love" via Pitchfork.
• Sorry 4 The Wait is Lil Wayne’s apology for making us sit and shrug as he pushes back the release date to Tha Carter IV over and over again (8/29). You can download the mixtape here.
