Getting down to Ohio, “Christmas in the 330” is rap-infused pop that celebrates like there’s no holiday after the 25th. The BreezeWay party hearty. Bring the Akron-curious.
Month: April 2022
Christmas Countdown: 333 [BLUE ALERT]
“A 333 Christmas” brings together yc boy (ft. shnus, will huge & wn) for a dope-smacked junk food-fueled Satyricon. Lazy, obscene rap–but i can only guess what the triple three means: sex.
Christmas Countdown: 350
Touchline clues us in to “A South African Christmas” during the pandemic, in which a citizen might apply for a grant of 350 rand per month (around 20 bucks). He doesn’t mean to break our hearts, but wish us ‘Merry Christmas’; yet rap being what it is, even in occasional Zulu, downer.
Big Nic gets a “Ticket” for Christmas, from himself to himself. The plane goes 350 miles per hour! But, then in the Caribbean he’s looking for BLUE ALERT connections he won’t find at home. Casual sex rap.
Waylan St. Palan & The Magic Elves spell out the family feast (including Pre heat the oven to 350) in the catchy folk rock “(Doin’ the) Dishes for Christmas.” Check their list: double boiler, candy thermometer, slotted spoon, spatula… but guess what they wish for Christmas (so they won’t have to Do Those Dishes anymore)?! This one’s magic, kids.
Christmas Countdown: 354
After spending too much time on the internet, The Liggetts conclude The holiday’s been here since before year one; Around year 354 the Christians stole it from the Sun (some ref. to the first written mention of Dec. 25 being a celebration, albeit a Roman festival). “It’s Christmas Time Again” is a rock march than breaks down the barriers between Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Solstice, and all–for a good time.
Christmas Countdown: 360
Cole DeRuse calls back his ideal childhood by way of video game platforms. After a round of Sega and Playstation2, he raps Take me back to when I got that 360 For Christmas. “Take Me Back” is pretty sweet nostalgia for a parent who can’t play no mo’.
Christmas Countdown: 362
Graveslime appeals to our better angels with some post punk wonderings about being nicer in the ‘pretty’ “362 Days until Christmas.” Worth the ask.

364 days may be less of a wait for next Xmas when it’s together.

Christmas Countdown: 364© [BLUE ALERT]
Something about the year long stretch from one Xmas to the next brings out the larger than life, the mythical, the monster.
Jesus, my friend, gets a consult in Popular Mechanics’s “364 Days a Year.” Menacing rock.
Third in a series of video game villain Christmasses, “The Fright Before Christmas” takes The Stupendium to meet all manner of weirdity without much concern for consequence. 364 days a year they’re rather vicious, but this one day they’re all too preoccupied with opening their toys. Fun, meaty pop.
“Krampusnacht” rips metal confessions from Sterbhaus, who seems to dig the monstrous torture around Xmas in exchange for That which I’m getting for 364 days doing everything I wish and more. Those metalheads–
Damien Marusenko focuses on only “Bloody Queen.” Santa goes out one night of the year The other 364 she instills fear (and it implies she might be Mrs. Claus). Seems she’s only equipped with a 12 gauge, but the attitude persists. Sepulchral pop. And BLUE ALERT profanity.
Christmas countdown: 364≠
It might be said that all the days (there hunnit and sistee-fo o’dem) betwixt one Christmas and the next are the days in which to Be Better. So you can live the spirit all the time. Or so you’ll get stuff. Every. Day.
Is it lazy rap, or just a guy reading out loud? Lil Jiblet asks Why don’t we just have that on a daily basis (meaning niceness) in “Christmas Jiblet.” Na-na-na-na along to find out the answer.
Joe Budden philosophizes: On thanksgiving my family would never visit And even when they did it always seemed so scripted Like they was forced to–Like small talk would resolve the 364 days they ain’t call you. “Happy Holidays” treats all the special days of the year but also raps every day is special if you make it. (N-word ALERT)
I just walk around in a jolly haze all the other 364 days drawl-lisps Cody Johnson about “Christmas All Year Long.” Yee hawlidays.
Why stop at one, hey what for? When we can have 364? snaps Sabrina Carpenter with amped up country pop in “Christmas the Whole Year Round.” Gettin’ grabby, gurl.
Tell me, why do we wait 364 days? Unspoken quips with bouncy alt-pop. “Christmas Everyday” wants the blessing, though. A better intended question, at last. (covered by one by one.)
Christmas Countdown: 364∫
364 is not quite the count of days in a year. It is the count of day after to day before Christmas. It’s all the days in-between. Which is tougher when it’s for the one who turns your crank.
Sam DeMartino croons to the pop “364 Days (Lying Under the Christmas Tree).” She’ll come back home again then. ‘Cuz she’s the present lying under there. Objectifying there, man.

364 days went and passed me by Maya (feat. B. Nicole) laments about also missing Santa in the la-la-la ooh-oooh pop/rap “Bad Santa.”
Kally knows it’s been 364 days since you touched her lips. But, you are “Christmas Dinner“! Seriously, this sprightly pop smitten missive is heartfelt (burp).
