People have weird fetishes. Some people have weird fetishes about dolls. But typically, these cultural oddities are kept out of the limelight, relegated to obscure websites, dark alleys, and a handful of really really anti-social people.
Until Mayer Hawthorne came along.
In the video below, Mayer Hawthorne isn't afraid to tell an unconventional love story. Yeah, you see where this is going.....
We've highlighted the up-and-coming soul singer who is signed to Stones Throw for a while now. Like a male-version of Amy Winehouse, his music instantly transports us back to the happy-go-lucky soul of the late 1950s and early 60s, when soda fountains and drive-thru theaters were red-hot, the Memphis music scene was churning out legends, and 7" were all the rage. For any of you who relish those oldies-but-goodies, you'll find a soft spot for Mayer Hawthorne.
Did we mention vinyl is outselling CDs on his current tour?
Hell yeah.
Not just that but Snoop Dogg's a huge fan (and he's in his new video with Diplo and Snoop Dogg.)
PS Speaking of Snoop Dogg, did you know he's working with Katy Perry? True:
