Mike Posner - "Cooler Than Me" (OFFICIAL VIDEO)


Damn.  This song blew up quick, huh?  I heard it on the radio for the first time a few weeks ago and now I feel like I hear it like every hour.  Mike Posner has been on the brink of making it big for the past few years but this song finally pushed him over the top.  Expect to hear more from from him in the near future because he's got some talent.  He's not necessarilly the best singer but he's got a fairly unique sound to his voice that helps him stick out from the rest of the R&B crowd.  He's kind of a raspy version of Justin Timberlake which the ladies will love.   

The funny thing is, "Cooler Than Me" has been around for more than a year but it was recently remixed for the radio with this uptempo electro beat.  Here is the original version of "Cooler Than Me" that also features The Brain Trust and Big Sean.  I can't really pick which version I like best because they are both pretty dope.  

Posner's song writing ability is solid and his subject matter is defintiely very different from the usual crap you hear on the radio which has made him very popular with the college crowd.  Just take a listen to "Drug Dealer Girl" below.  That's some original shit right there. 

If you are just hearing about Mike Posner for the first time, you are probably getting old like me. Luckily, one of my younger friends put me on to his music last year so I don't feel completely out of the loop this time around...
