Check your coat...

So after almost a year long hiatus, your girl is back.. Life had me busy, you know how it is! Thanks to y'all who shouted me out.. I'll try to keep the posts coming. Anyways... got some nice recommendations and musings for y'all..

So music unfortunately, is still suffering from an extreme absence of creativity and quality.. but I've found some nice singles/gems that deserve a listen. One that is bubbling under the surface of pop/r&B/hiphop charts is O'Neal McKnight's Check Your Coat. The song has a 80s/electronic/Michael Jack feel, featuring the rhymes of the old school hip hop great Greg Nice. While it does not surpass the legacy of MiJac, its definitely going to rock 2008.

Another group to watch out for is The Knux. Hailing from Cali by way of New Orleans, this duo is the newly signed "hipster rap" (WTF IS HIPSTER RAP?!?) group to Interscope. Their new single, Cappuccino is crazy hot, and the remix is great too. I can't wait soon enough to get this album.. Release it already!! Check their vid and myspace....
