Ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod. I just found my favorite album of 2012 (alright, it was technically released in 2011, but I just discovered it today (120 Minutes has been an unbelievable boon of good music)). Did you like Fitz and the Tantrums or Cee-Lo's latest album? Then you need need need to listen to Mayer Hawthorne.
