2. Snoop Dogg, “My Medicineâ€
On Snoop’s improbable country collaboration with Everlast, he tells some lucky honky-tonk angel, “They say you can’t buy me love, but you damn sure can buy me bud,†making this one of the most authentic country songs to come out this year. [Culture Bully]
3. The B-52s, “Funplex (Peaches Pleasure Seeker remix)â€

4. Midnight Movies, “Souvenirs (Nick Zinner remix)â€
Yeah Yeah Yeah’s guitarist takes a crack at this Midnight Movies song for their upcoming EP of covers and remixes. Like most souvenirs, it’s somewhat cheap and falls apart pretty quickly. [Mixtape Maestro]
5. Silver Jews, “What Is Not But Could Be Ifâ€
A new Johnny Cash record definitely is not coming out, but it could be if squint your ears really hard while listening to this brand-new track from the Silver Jews. [Pop Tarts Suck Toasted]
