About five minutes before I started this piece, I turned the volume down on my computer to gather my thoughts. I’m generally not shocked by music these days, but I had to take pause and process what I’d just listened to. My Twitter timeline is currently on fire because Hamburger Helper, a brand of food I haven’t eaten since my young days, dropped a Mixtape. And when I say “dropped a Mixtape,” I mean there’s an entire EP worth of songs from Hamburger Helper in mixtape format titled *WATCH THE STOVE*
I’m not saying this is the greatest collection of songs I have eve heard but What I’m saying is, the marketing was done right. People were talking about this project, People are Listening to it with enthusiasm and I even went to listen with the intent of tweeting about how awful it was. Instead, the music was actually pretty dope.
