Even though I’d never heard of dudes until a few weeks ago when it was rumored they were beefing with Wiz Khalifa and B.o.B., labels are said to be scrambling to sign Odd Future. Reportedly, the group’s members are having a little fun with the situation by making unusual, and somewhat outrageous, demands of the executives involved in the bidding war. According to the NY Post:

“The anti-establishment band has been having some fun by asking the bigwigs to meet them on their turf—the Supreme skateboard shop on Fairfax [in Los Angeles]. [Steve] Rifkind, who sources tell us is soon to make a formal offer, managed to get them to his office, but said frontman Tyler the Creator told him: ‘If you are serious about the meeting, I want Randy’s Donuts, swivel chairs and a megaphone.’ Diddy—who’s said to be ‘desperate to sign the group to prove that he’s onto something hot’—set up a meeting between Tyler and Justin Bieber after the band demanded he deliver the pint-size pop star. A source said, ‘Tyler asked Diddy for access to Justin, so he pulled strings.’ A rep for Odd Future said, ‘Tyler did meet with Justin, and Diddy helped make it happen.’”

I’m pretty sure Diddy is desperate to prove he’s onto something hot since he has yet to make up for giving us Da Band (I mean really, what was he thinking?). Meanwhile, what does a girl have to do to get hooked up with an introduction to Maxwell? While I contemplate that one, check out Odd Future’s “Orange Juice”:
