Will they play this on the radio?

Talib Kweli "State of Grace"

...I see lyrics as colours and shapes
Put it on tape, let her know I could relate
When you wish you could switch the way that you look
And your nose was smaller and your hair was straight
When you got no faith
When you hate yourself, when you hate your race
Let's get to the core
Our sisters worth more than grinding on the wall half-naked
She a bitch, she a whore...

I Believe

Dreamy. Magical. Beautiful. Skye is so stunning. <3

The truth is It's painless Letting your love show

So much truth in this song.

"You don't know
Somebody's aching. Keeping it all in
Somebody won't let go of his heart but the truth is
It's painless
Letting your love show..."

New Beginnings

Kathleen Edwards' "Change the Sheets" reminds me of one of those songs you put on when you're going for a long drive. Something has changed in your life: a break up, a lost job, the end of a friendship, the end of an old way of thinking or an old habit; a new chapter. At this time all you want to do is, like Kathleen says, run run run run run. But instead you drive and drive, just you, the moonlight & your shed skin behind you; a closed chapter behind as you come to terms with how to move forward. It's one of those tracks that tells of a change of scenery in your life. A change that will do you good. And sadly, this is another track you'll probably never hear on the airwaves.

"Here is the truth, I swear it used to be fun. Go ahead run run run run…"

The perfect summer song

We're in December and it's a long way to summer, I know. But where have I been that I haven't heard of this Washed Out dude before? But I'm glad I was made aware of him recently :) Check out his other songs. Very lazy-summer-dayish.

Down on Life but with an upbeat vibe

The words tell of trouble but the beat to this song is so dope you can't help but move and sing along. To me it's one of those nice earworms. Elliphant is dope. I love her style, her sound, her accent and I love that reggae vibe of this track. Can't wait to see more of her work.

Psychic Twin!

Speaking of underground bands doing their thing in Brooklyn, let me introduce you to Psychic Twin. Discovered them at a warehouse party in Williamsburg last year and since then I've been hooked. I just love her voice. She's one of those artists I wish the whole world could know about yet not, because I want to be only one of the few who knows and appreciates her sound. You know how it is. Anyway, enjoy.
