“Shortly before we got his third mixtape I WANT YOU, Theophilus London released a DIY promo video for the track “Life Of A Lover”. The record loops lazily to show us a new look: pretty girls dancing with each other at a show, young dudes headnodding, the crush of cameras and hard flash that now follows us everywhere we go, a cut to Theophilus in monochrome riding in a Vespa gang through Chinatown en route to Brooklyn and then back to the dance—a mic cord drifting slowly in and out of the frame and his hand reaching out to bring a girl on stage. That is all and this is it: inspired by Marvin Gaye’s self-imposed European exile and controversial performance of the national anthem at the 1983 NBA All Star game, I WANT YOU is a collection of dark jams that restlessly examines the promise of love beyond lifestyle. Touching on LA electrofunk, UK indie, tropical escapade and obscure afropop you never knew existed, these are stories from the way we live now: missed connections and misunderstandings, video chats and retweets, returns and deliverables. We know today is all black everything but more to the point: this is now noir as we know it. And this is Theophilus London.”

    this passage is dope.

  • how can we get copies of his previous mix tapes.? links on his myspace dont work. just wondering.

  • Omgfgg! I've been waiting for this one! "Hey Mixtape, I Want You!"... Can't wait to get home & get this on the iPhone! I want to leave now haha! Sorry I'm spazzing but I just been anticipating!

  • I gots a story to tell (bear with me)..so yesterday i basically studied all day for my genetics test, even slept in the science building to pass that sh*t (weird and trifling i know). So basically I studied all nite (except for my hour nap on a wood bench), brushed my teeth in the dam professors bathroom, and still typed a paper due on friday (handed it in today cuz gotsa hop on train and go home. Havin a car in the shop is not the biz). So to cut the story short our class took the test, but it was only 45 min. time limit. Mind u this class is mad juvenile, but this was an all essay test. I was ready to get hype on teach, but the brooklynites of course did it for everyone. To add fuel to the fire I have a maxed out credit card, and have to now walk everywhere cuz ridonkulous me chose to go to college in the bush. But rite before I was about to look crazy walkin at the side of the highway to catch the bus home, i decided to see what vash was up to. FYI my study partner had u as her screen saver and i internally got hype. So i scrolled down and i see the cheap ass card i made for you and my loser ass was mad elated. SO THANK YOU VASH FOR ENTERTAINING ME AND MAKING ME FEEL LIKE I MITE BE DOING THIS SH*T FOR A REASON!

  • Much respect from DC. downloaded last night, hit a j, watched the moon. The entire joint played straight through, great work. EF stamped.

  • LOVE THIS MIXTAPE! lovve A Stranger's Heart, Life of a Lover, Starry Eyed and most importantly I Want You! (the combination of theophilus and the sultry vocals of marvin gaye...is EAR-gasmic! GOOD LOOKING OUT VA$HTIE!
